Good airhoses are worth a little extra money | |
| A cheap airhose (made from PVC, usually) is a pain. They stay coiled when you uncoil them, and stay straight when you coil them. A high quality rubber hose makes a huge difference. It sounds trivial, but it really makes managing hoses easier. When I'm in the shop, or out on a job I want to be able to run the hose out quickly, and coil it neatly when I'm done. A high quality rubber hose like this one makes it easy.
My Goodyear hoses have been in service for a long time and are tough enough to last for many more years. I also appriaciate the fact that it's made in the USA. One extra tip - lay out your hose, then connect it to the tank. If you connect it to the tank when it's coiled, it'll fill with air and be harder to uncoil. | |
great hose/great price | |
| It compares favorably to the $30 red Amflo hose at Home Depot/Lowes (Goodyears may be a bit lighter and thinner). I bought two and cut one to make a 20 ft. and 30 ft., to have three different lengths available (I bought the barbed threaded ends at Lowes). | |
another great product from goodyear | |
| i have been using these same hoses at work for a year now and they are a GREAT product. they lay flat on the floor after unrolling and they are really easy to roll back up when your done. forget those "PUR-hose" products. i've used them before and they don't lay flat on the floor causing a mess of the work site. i bought 2 and saved on shipping. great product! |
