This is possibly the best air hose we've seen. Light polyurethane construction takes the bulk out of it, meaning easier transport, but it's super tough and will not kink or crush, no matter how you abuse it. Rubber hoses become difficult to maneuver when the temperature drops, but this one's light and flexible even in temperatures below zero. You can't see inside rubber hoses, but this one's translucent enough to let you see if you've got contaminants in the line. If you're running a pneumatic tool, you ought to be running your air through this.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

flexible and light - Reviewed on 2008-08-01
I've used this hose for a year, that is, both winter and summer.
It's very flexible and light weighted that I don't feel anything behind nail gun.
Have noticed one problem in summer. The surface of hose is a little stikcy, so it tangles each other easily. Once they get stuck together, I have to spend quite some time to untangle it. If you maintain the hose straight, it'd be ok. But when I move the hose here and there, it tangles more than rubber line in summer.
In winter, it's stiffer but still more flexible than average rubber hose.
One time, I dropped 2x4, and the hose cracked easily. Since then, I have to pay extra attention to protect the line than other hoses.
I've used many hoses, including all kinds of rubber hoses.
Overall it's a good hose. But it tangles easily and suface is not so strong, I don't use it extensively, only use it in short distance and/or simple jobs. Don't recommend this hose for any tough jobs at all.
