Good light weight air hose for use with pneumatic tools. I use mine with a brad nailer. Straightens out nicely with very little effort. Doesn't kink or pinch off. Appears to be very well made.

apparently high quality but still keeps a coil/has memory despite stretching thoroughly as described in various places and storing in various ways. i guess it's just a matter of using it a lot and over time it becomes the "dead snake" that i'm so desperately after. my friend has a hitachi one that he uses for his building business and it's weighted nicely and goes wherever he wants without a memory fighting him. but he's had it for a decade so that is probably the difference.

Ordered this hose after my makita hose grew feet and walked.
This hose does what it's supposed to do.
The not so good is that it's very sticky/tacky.
This thing does not slide smoothly on any surface. I don't think it deserves the premium price. Your better off with a less expensive Makita, Hitachi or equivalent. $15-20 cheaper.
I would return it but it was the only hose I brought to the job site so I used it for the day.

I bought this airline 1 year ago, I wanted to wait to review until I had put it through the uses in my Custom Woodwork Shop, I live 75+ miles from any large city (more than 350 folks), I also live in the extreme N.E. corner of Wyoming we have winters that get -40 at times. I have NO insulation as my 40' x 70' shop is similar to a military Quonset hut (half rounded, no straight sides) I have had problems with air lines and electrical cords getting stiff enough to crack- I had been looking for air lines that are like the extension cords I use now - Blue in color and flexible to -30, this air line is a perfect solution and a very good price. I use it for a drop from my main line over my table saw, it has never caused any problems , it's always flexible . One day I'll get a larger wood stove or insulate (that would be costly) I don't run my equipment under 40 degrees or power up my compressor, that would be very hard on equipment, I don't use a large volume of air , so the small size works very well- Thanks to all who review the items we all buy and Thanks to Amazon for those reviews and fast shipping as well as the good price

A huge improvement over the rubber hoses I've been using and the polyurethane hoses in the past. The poly hoses I'd had previously had much (emphasis on much) stronger memory of being coiled up. More like a spring than a lay flat hose. This still wants to coil, but not aggressively like before. I really like it. I've left these lay out in the sun, under pressure for a couple weeks now and seen no degrading of the surface. That takes me to the rubber hoses. Indoors, out of the sun, they work fine. A rubber hose left out in the weather soon begins to check and fade. None of that here. These hoses replaced a couple rubber ones that finally started having blowouts. The rubber hoses were 3/8", a size larger, but since I'm running 1/4" air fittings I figured there shouldn't be much difference. I can tell no change in the amount of air coming out the business end of the hose. This is not a measured conclusion, just what it feels and acts like. They are much lighter than a rubber hose, thinner and more flexible.

The competition's swivel fittings are a nice touch, But, this hose has reuseable fittings, which is a big plus and potential money saver. The hose strain relief is quite nice, gives a good gripping surface for connecting the hoses. This hose has a bit more tendency to want to coil up than the competitions. Not a deal breaker, but not quite so cooperative. Still, an excellent air hose. Wouldn't hesitate to buy another.
