Durable, flexible, no leaks!

No leaks when properly connected with liquid Teflon sealant. I also appreciate how flexible and flexible the hoses are and I really appreciate the high pressure output I use in my workshop with a very large air compressor (7.5hp, 220VAC, single phase EMax).

Pros
  • Dope πŸ”₯
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Good hoses, but the pivoting end narrows the airway more than I was hoping. They came in sacks that contained some kind of black liquid, and it got into one of the sacks. Luckily, it just hit the threads of one connector and was able to extinguish it. Industrial oil maybe?

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Amazing hose, best parts and supplies

Had to replace the hose that came with my 3/4 inch dash. Same hose, only the original had a burn hole for BB welding. Otherwise both hoses work great. It's a lot easier to hook up a whip like this to a large hose than trying to hook up a large hose to a shock hose. The hose allows more flexibility to get into deep wheels or hard-to-reach places. The hose adds very little weight, which you wouldn't notice with a 3/4" drive.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Hard to say

Rusty connector for auger accessories

I bought two Flexzilla whips. One was ok, this one wasn't. When I took it out of the sealed plastic bag I found it was rusty/corroded. I assumed the brass fittings clearly weren't since brass doesn't rust/corrode. Of course as this is for an air compressor fitting I will not trust a rusty/corroded fitting and will be returning it. I can't imagine how something like this could happen to quality control. Very disappointed as the reviews were good.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • So-so

*** Pure bullshit, DO NOT buy. ***

Flexzilla Braided Swivel Air Hose, 1/2" x 2 ft The male 3/8 NPT swivel end clearly did not insert deep enough into the Flexzilla hose prior to crimping and was leaking profusely before the compressor could even reach 20psi that it couldn't build any higher pressure. I'm tempted to think someone would assemble them in their garage because mass production would a) never allow this bug and b) QC would have found it in QC. Returning it is not worth my trouble.12 7 2020 MANUFACTURER REPLY ANSWER…

Inexpensive and practical swivel heads

So far it's holding up well. I used this to connect a compressor hardline on one end to a filter/humidifier on the other end. The key to this is the swivel heads that this whip has. The seller sent quickly, the quality is good. You need at least one swivel end (this one has it) to make it practical for connecting two hard lines. This works fine for my application. The only other one I found there in 3/4" had bad reviews for failing due to the heat generated by the air compressor. I decided to…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • A few little things

Outstanding performance in the hose!

excellent quality hose, from now on I am selling Legacy Flexzilla hoses. I've used PVC tubing for years and have dealt with tangles, kinks and stiff tubing. I recently upgraded my compressor and needed a fresh install, so Legacy was my answer. For the inlet hoses I used: 2ft (HFZ1202YW3S) and 4ft (HFZ1204YW3S) and my main hose (HFZ1250YW3). I used 1/2" hose with 3/8" ends for everything, the larger hose helps keep the demand for higher flow impact wrenches and air tools going. I also purchased…

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • so far so good
