User questions & answers

Question:	Is this hose
Answer:	Is the Inside diameter of this hose 3/4" or 5/8"
Question:	Is this hose uv resistant
Answer:	Absolutely...the best hoses I have ever owned. Lifetime guarantee.... Own 3....one is 7 years old....just gets better with age!! UV resistance ....Have seen no sign of oxidation in or degredation on outside of the rubber ...the primary thing the hose is made of.
Question:	Is this hose hard to coil? Can it be used on a reel without struggling to roll it out and back
Answer:	Unless it is 80 degrees and the hose is in the direct sunlight... this thing is like spring steel! This hose is so stiff if its cold out, it could snap back and break a leg! I am not sure you could actually coil it on the inside of a hose reel. My hose is in the shed most of the year.
Question:	Does this 3/4 inch hose require the use of a brass fitting from the spigot that screws in at 5/8 inch and which then screws into the hose at 3/4/ inch
Answer:	When you see garden hoses \ dimensions like 5/8, 3/4 etc, that ALWAYS refers to the inside diameter of the hose itself. ALL threads for fittings on garden hoses are standard regardless of the hose size/diameter. Garden hose threaded connection fitting standard is defined by ANSI-ASME B1.20.7, [ "Hose Coupling Screw Threads (Inch)"] which is 1 1⁄16 inches (27 mm) diameter straight (non-tapered) thread with a pitch of 11.5 threads per inch (TPI). (ASME) = American Society of Mechanical Engineers. (ANSI) = American National Standards Institute.

User questions & answers

Question:	there are answers already to the question "what color is this" but the answers do not match the image and they are not recent answers from
Answer:	The couplings do appear to be solid brass. The packaging on the hose also indicated the couplings are made of brass.
Question:	what color is the hose
Answer:	This hose IS grey. I like mine!
Question:	can you tell me what temperature this hose will still work at? ie minus what degree
Answer:	It has a 1/4" MIP end and is made for 3/8" hose
Question:	is it easy to move
Answer:	I replaced the hoses on both of my Harbor Freight hose reals with the 50ft Flexzilla hoses. I recall I needed to think through how I threaded it through the real and whether or not I wanted to reuse the original spring-like hose guard from the hose real hose. It's worked well and I would highly recommend it. I think these ends are the same as those on the 50' hose. If I get a chance I can try to post a photo.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are the fittings lead free
Answer:	It's Vinyl and nylon cord, so it has to be leadfree. I do not believe they sell any hoses today that contain lead.I bought this hose because it is a full three-quarter inch inside diameter which lets me fill my hundred gallon horse trough in less than 10 minutes.
Question:	can you this hose for potable water lets for RVs
Answer:	Yes, the inner bore of the fittings is nearly 3/4"
Question:	I searched for a rubber hose and this came up. I can't see anywhere where it says it's rubber. Is it rubber or not
Answer:	This is a very well built hose. I have never used it as a suction hose but unless you are sucking a large vacuum, in my opinion, I would think it would not collapse. Hope this helps....
Question:	How hot of water can I run through this Hose
Answer:	This hose should work fine to connect your pressure washer to your water supply, provided your water supply is itself under enough pressure to keep the hose from collapsing and to avoid starving the pressure washer. My house water system delivers 35 psi at the pressure washer inlet. For the pressure washer discharge, this hose will not work. You would need a special high pressure hose meeting the discharge pressure specification for your particular pressure washer system.
