I needed something to really fit my shower hose in the extra bracket I bought here from Revain. That is: directly below where the hose is screwed onto my shower head. I had issues with my shower head not staying in place because the base of the shower head and the nut directly below it were too big to fit in the bracket and the hose was too thin. position and even a couple of times it fell out of the bracket and almost hit me in the head! I simply wrapped/stretched this silicone band around the hose just below the shower head to make it thick enough to fit snugly into the shower head bracket/mount. The "grip" of the silicone strap was PERFECT and now I don't have to constantly change the position of the shower head! After a while it really settles/seals and is now immobile. I don't have to worry about it "untangling". It was the perfect solution to my problem!
