Is that on a portable or TM

If its a portable I know a solution hose at 3000psi is around the £107 mark for 50 feet. If that is of any use.

Andy you should be able to get it fixed at your local Pirtek (there are a couple of similar ones but I can't remember their names)

ok heres another link, these are solution hoses.

Most pipe / presure pipe places do these. They will also know about the ends male and female connections.

If you let me know where you are apart from sussex I will try to locate a repairer or some one you can purchase

Thats what the name was "Hydrolic" I could not think of it for the moment. Search hydrolic eastbourne mate and get it repaired. Lot cheaper. Unless the one you have is on the way out anyways.

But Ashbys is fine.

mine burst last week , again :'(   fortunatly could finish the job as had another 2 50ft lenghts , first thing next morning  straight into pirteck depot , repair, new female and male for good luck £19 .00

ten minutes is all it took. I find they always burst right at the join where the most strain is from bending, a good tip , well I find it solves the problem  :)  is to have a terry towel draped over the trigger assembly, I do this for 2 reasons, 1 it prevents me burning myself on the valve and it prevents the solution flying every where when it does burst.
