3/8 in. x 25 ft. PVC Air Compressor Hose

I bought this a a part of a Christmas gift for my mom to go with a pancake air compressor and tool kit. She loves it. Even though she doesn't use it as often as she thought she would, it still runs great and is close by if she needs it.

My search for an inexpensive, lightweight "watering" hose found this. Yes, I know this is an air hose, but I figure if it can withstand the air pressure + the oil & water that a compressor pushes thru these hoses, what's a little water at 80 psi? The pros: + Low cost of $9.99 with Amazon free shipping. I see this hose is going for $8.99 now, an even a better deal! + Pretty flexible. + Nice blue color. + The brass 1/4" NPT male fittings look to be solidly crimped on. + Advertised - Reinforced PVC hose. + Advertised - Oil & abrasion resistant. + Advertised - 3/8" x 25' long. + Advertised - Working pressure of 200 PSI. ◄ The hose I received is labeled 300 PSI working pressure. + Advertised - Brass 1/4" NPT male fitting at each end. + Advertised - One year warranty. The cons: - No fittings included, other than what's crimped on, you have to provide your own. - Made in China. ◄ Not entirely a bad thing, but some may prefer made in USA. Closing remarks: ▪ With the correct fittings, this low cost air hose can be used as a light weight watering hose. :) ▪ This air hose construction is reinforced PVC with brass 1/4" NPT male fittings, so nothing to rust. ▪ Odds are good the brass fitting on this hose are NOT lead free, so the water passing thru this lightweight water hose should not be used for potable water. ► Update - May 19, 2016 ▪ I used this lightweight water hose today & I have to say it exceeded my expectations! It was noticeably lighter, but the water flow appeared to be as it was when I was using a standard 1/2" garden hose. :) ▪ The plan now is to make another lightweight watering hose in a 50' length. The holdup is the cost of the 2 brass fittings, which have doubled in price! :( ► Update - June 23, 2016 ▪ I just made another "lightweight" watering hose using a 50' hose this time. I really like the watering hose I previously made with a 25' hose & I've been waiting for the 1/4" NPT female to 3/4" GHT (garden hose thread) to drop back to a reasonable price. They did & now I have a 50' "lightweight" watering hose for my backyard raised bed garden! ▪ The water flow is slightly less, but not an issue for my use. The reduced weight of the hose is VERY noticeable, as is the maneuverability of the smaller diameter hose! ► Update - June 8, 2018 ▪ I decided to buy another 25' hose, again to be used as a water hose. This hose was slightly different then the previous hoses I bought. It's much softer & very flexible. Even better, this one cost $7.99 with free Amazon shipping! The attached pictures show my finished lightweight watering hose. I used two 1/4" NPT female to 3/4" GHT (garden hose thread) male brass fittings & added quick connect hose fittings. The black heat shrink tubing is used to cover the brass & to provide a bit more hose to fitting strain relief... plus it looks better! :)

I bought a compressor off Amazon which listed NO ACCESSORIES, so I got this hose to go with it. To my surprise, when the compressor arrived, it had a 25' coil hose! The hose that came with the compressor was thin plastic and only rated to 200 PSI, whereas the Campbell Hausfeld hose was rated 300 PSI. As I don't really care for coil hoses anyway, I was glad I had ordered this hose. The hose is very flexible and well-made. I holds air with no leaks, just like it's supposed to. With all due respect to the customer that thought air hoses should come with connectors: they don't. You have to buy the connectors yourself, no matter what hose you buy, and this one is no different. However, the hose feels a little sticky to me, like the plastic is just a little too soft, and that makes me worry about the long term durability of the product. So for that reason, I'm giving it only four stars. Great hose for the price, but not perfect.

I used this hose from my compressor to my Campbell Hausfeld 25' retracting hose reel, and it works great.It's a little stiff, but just using it for a supply line it works great. I ran it along the rafters of my workshop to my Craftsman 6-gal 5hp compressor to the reel. You'll have to buy the Female 1/4" adapter and the quick change coupling, and make sure you teflon tape all your fittings before assembling. Tested it with 150-PSI with no leaks at all, and held pressure for a few hours, till I drained the compressor for the night. I also sprayed this hose and the reel hose with WD-40 Silicone spray to keep it lubricated, and it won't dry out and crack. Hope this review helps. Thanks Amazon and Campbell Hausfeld.

i picked up this hose to use with an old air compressor that i'd been given. i also grabbed this accessory kit and built a few accessories. the hose is sturdy and doesn't bind or catch, and the connectors snap in and swivel perfectly. in the cold temps of last week (~20 degrees) the hose was very stiff, but that's to be expected. this is a great product, and i can't imagine many others will beat it for the price.

I had gotten a new air compressor for my nail gun to remodel my bathroom and this hose was perfect. Great length so I didn’t have to keep moving my air compressor around and I was able just to move around the bathroom and get what I needed done. And the price was great so much better than the ones at the store.

In my opinion Campbell Hausfeld makes a lot of air products that are slightly below professional quality but made better than most DIY air products. IE in the case of air hoses they are lighter than pro which for me means better overall when dragging 100 or more feet around. They hold up for years.

Product was good but was advertised as 50ft during cyber monday. Was not 50ft only 25ft. Vendors fault not necessarily Amazon's but still no option after except refund ( even amzn rep saw problem)...disappointed

Work good.

Tiene un muy buen tamaño, para el hogar es una exelente compra.

Buen producto, buen precio, cumplió mis expectativas de servicio. No fuga y eso lo hace eficiente con el uso de herramientas neumáticas

Nice air hose. Doesn't kink. Hose has a nice soft feel to it. Easy to coil up when I'm done with it. Good buy for the money.

Manguera de mala calidad no la volveria a comprar, las tuercas no giran y se siente que es una manguera que no durará.
