Clean off splattered mud from a camper at the campsite with this handy marine and recreation hose from Gilmour. The 5/8-inch hose offers users 50 feet of length to tackle outdoor cleaning and watering projects. Compact for storage, the hose is an ideal implement for a houseboat, RV, or campsite. It also features an FDA-approved internal lining that guarantees that water picks up no additional impurities while flowing through the hose for safe drinking water.

The durable tool is crafted with five-ply reinforced vinyl to combat abrasions, tears and other deterioration while resisting bursting. Plus, its outer shell leaves no blemishes or discoloration to boat decks or concrete surfaces, and is malleable for coiling. The hose features Gilmour’s Full-Flo brass couplings, permitting water to flow without limitation. An EZ-On coupler and protective collar enables a fast and simple connection to the water source, and helps avert kinking around the couplings. Gilmour offers a lifetime replacement policy and will replace unsatisfactory products within their typical lifespan free of charge. This item weighs 5.72 pounds upon shipping. --Jessica Reuling

Product Description

These extremely durable drinking water safe hoses are ideal for use on boats, campers, and for other recreational activities. The 5-ply construction makes them extremely abrasion resistant and virtually impervious to bursting, and the blue-striped white cover wonĘt mar surfaces. They are extra kink resistant, flexible, and easy to coil in all weather conditions. Full-Flo brass couplings allow for unrestricted water flow through the 5/8'' diameter hose, and the FDA approved liner material ensures no impurities are imparted to drinking water. The EZ-On coupler and protective collar make for quick attachment to the water source and prevent kinking at the coupler.

This review is from: Gilmour 12 Series 5 Ply Marine & Recreation Hose 5/8 Inch x 50 Feet 12-58050 White w/Aqua Stripe (Lawn & Patio)

I've used the Gilmour Flexogen hoses for years with complete satisfaction so when I ordered this hose it never crossed my mind that it would not be a quality product. I would have liked to have seen the look on my face the first time I used this hose! At low pressure its fine, but if you put a nozzle or cut off on the end and let the pressure build.......holy cow! I watched in amazement as the hose swelled larger and larger and writhed on the ground like a live thing. Very creepy. Apparently in making it drinking water safe they didn't use enough tire cord to keep its shape. Hose gets stiff and totally unwieldy. Swells like a hotdog on the grill. Its hard to describe but suffice to say compared to a "normal" hose its practically unusable. The Apex Neverkink drinking water hose also sold by Amazon is much better and holds its shape/diameter.
