EPDM Rubber Garden / Contractor's Water Hose, 5/8" x 100'

Includes one bend restrictor on the female end - Temp. Range: -20°F to 180°F - Working Pressure: 200 PSI - Color: Black
Customer Review: Excellent Quality Product
This hose is made in the USA with the highest quality materials rubber and brass. It is worth the price. I need to use the hose just about every day and never a problem. In the past I have used cheeper hoses from the home centers that always kinked and more of a problem than what they are worth.
Customer Review: delivered defective
The fitting leaked on the reinforced end, on the hose side. We purchased this hose for our business since common garden hoses do not survive the heavy use. A water pressure of around 150psi and a temperature 160F is what we expose it to. This product looked great in the description and prior to installation. I cannot comment on the performance as ours was defective and could not be used. It could be that such defects are very rare, or it could be that it is a design or manufacturing flaw that may or may not appear immediately. If any others have experience with this hose, please comment. PRI Industries that sold us the defective hose offered to have it picked up so they can send it to the manufacturer for warranty inspection. Unfortunately we cannot wait for this procedure as it is likely to take about a month or so. We ordered another hose from Grainger for about $16.00 more, and to make up for lost time we will pick it up ourselves. We will attempt to obtain a credit since a replacement will result in our purchasing two hoses when we only need one.
