Title: 5mm hose any good?
Post by: forestwindows on May 05, 2010, 06:52:04 pm

hi has anyone used this 5mm hose from wintecs from the pole to trolley or van?
is is strong enough or does it split / leak quickly

will get tangles if you are using 50mtrs of it, if using for a pole only then fine.

Ive only ever used that hose 90 mtrs and never had a problem , ive just recently changed over to 90 mtrs of the yellow hose that alex sells and find this better and still the same size .

if the latter how do you get on with cars driving over it ?
