Goodyear Yellow Hose 250 PSI 3/8 x 50 Feet

This hose is made of high-quality industrial grade reinforced rubber, instead of vinyl. It remains soft and flexible and is easy to get it to lay flat on the floor so you don't trip on it. See Customer Images for an example of its flexibility; it's also like that in the winter time. It's also easy to feed it onto a hose reel, or to coil it up by hand.

Vinyl hoses, or even rubber hoses coated with vinyl are stiffer than this one and are more difficult to lay flat; polyurethane hoses are stiffer still.

I tried a "Task Force" brand air hose from Lowes (made in China) that was "reinforced rubber", but it split open in under a year. The entire surface was full of cracks the point is, all rubber hoses are not created equal.

Goodyear demonstrates their confidence in this product with a 10-year guarantee.

I've used all types of air hoses and can confidently say this Goodyear hose is the best. It's durable and stands up to the wear and tear of job-site use. It comes with perfectly attached 1/4" threaded solid brass fittings and the hose ends are reinforced with 5" long bend restrictors to prevent kinks near the fittings. The bursting pressure of this 250 PSI hose is over 1,000 PSI.

This hose is made and assembled in the USA.

The 25' hose states that the item has "Bend Restrictors Prevent Kinks near end Fittings." The hose that I received did not, in fact the hose looked to be in used condition and did not have any sort of packaging. The hose may be a previous return, be aware that the pictures may not match the hose you receive.

**update**

The above review was not due to the manufacturer, but to best deal tools sending me the wrong hose.(46501) I returned the item, purchased the 300psi model (46544) and reordered the 250 psi model 46504 (fulfilled by amazon.)

The 46501 model is very similar to the 46504, but does not include the bend restrictor. The 300psi model is thicker than the 250psi model, but is also a little stiffer. I like the 46504 model because it is easier to use on a daily basis. I'll be keeping both because of their quality and the increased flexibility of having 50ft total.

MIT seemed interested by replying to this review, but did not seem interested in replying to the email they asked me to send.

The bottom line: product goes from 2 stars to 4 stars based on quality of product. Missed a 5 star due to customer service.

I replaced my old air hose that was not rubber, often got tangled up, would rarely unravel without probelms, with the Goodyear 3/8 inch hose. The rubber hose is worth the extra few $. I store it in my garage, and even the winter temperatures don't phase it. Only had it a month, so durability is uncertain, but everything to this point is outstanding. Highly recommend!

I'm adding onto this review as it's almost a year later (Dec 2012), my air hose has been through the heat of summer and already some freezing temps of winter, yet I use it on all my needed projects and it's worth every penny spent. Still highly recommend
