Title: Braided pole hose or reinforced hose .
Post by: richard jagger on April 05, 2013, 01:30:10 pm

Not often do I need help but today I am looking for a braided pole hose for a hot water system as the Gardeners yellow pole hose keeps bursting. Any input would be appreciated.

Streamline 5 pole hose from pure freedom is braided
I use this and it's very hard wearing, although I only use cold water

I wouldn't want to stick braided hose up a pole, it adds weight.  Some might say it's just a little but every little bit adds up.  I know some don't like it but aqua adapter hose is fine with hot.

I use Brodex pole hose. It is braided and it lasts a long time.

If you are bursting pole hose you are doing something very wrong. Turn that pressure down!  ;D

Please Tim, its not the pressure its the hose getting hot and then pressure of the water.  I use the pole tap at the brush head so it does put strain on the pole hose.I need a pole that can resist the pressure  of hot water. Thanks anyway Mate.

Looks like it will be aquadaptor hose then.Maybe the orange as I do use cold aswell. Is the red hose a pain when cold?

Of course, pressure combined with heat. But still, if you manage to actually burst pole hose, either one of them, or both are way too high. I can't remember the last time somebody actually blew up the actual pole hose.  :D
