Gates has added two new products to its line of hybrid polymer hoses: A water hose; and a whip air hose. The company explained that they won’t kink or curl, making jobs easier. Both products are available now. According to the company, these are the benefits of the whip air hose (pictured above right):
- ¼-in. male ball swivel and ¼-in. female NPT fitting
- Available in 2-, 4- and 6-ft. lengths
- Lightweight, extremely flexible construction
- Zero memory, allowing it to lay completely flat
- Superior bend radius
These are Gates’ described benefits for the water hose (above left):
- Zero memory, allows it to lay completely flat
- Superior bend radius and easy coiling after use
- High abrasion and chemical resistance
- Kink resistant, even under pressure
- Heavy-duty nickel plated fittings and spring guard
