Description of BluBird Air Hose 50 FT

Lightest, Strongest, Most Flexible! Finally, a rubber hose that’s 40% lighter than others and as light as hybrid / PVC hoses. And it is stronger than the best of rubber hoses. Ease of use: Lays flat, does not kink under pressure, doesn't get sticky and dirty like plastic and hybrid hoses, much easier to clean. Unmatched cold-weather flexibility: Remains as flexible at -50F as the best hybrids do at 0F. Perfectly usable. Doesn't become a noodle up till 200F either. Braided, not just spiraled, polyester gives 300PSI Working Pressure from -50F to 200F with a burst pressure of 1200PSI (Most '300PSI' hybrids have a 900PSI burst). Comes with 1/4" NPT Brass end fittings. Better against rust than steel, stronger than aluminium.

10 year guarantee with lock.

Attention buyers! Do not throw away the packaging if you wish to make a future warranty claim. Warranty details are hidden on a label affixed to the box, advising that the original packaging or UPC must be included with any warranty claim. It looks like the company is trying to hide this detail to avoid processing claims. A shady business practice in my humble opinion.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

Very good airline and excellent service

Item arrived on time and I was surprised how light and flexible this 1/2 airline is. The product was missing the gearbox, but Blubird responded immediately and shipped it to me. This 1/2 line is slightly larger in OD than my old 3/8 line. I will buy more planes from Blubird. I've updated my air since 3/8 so I need to replace fittings, regulators etc as well. So I would recommend buying all the devices at once to get you back in business.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • No instructions

The hose has no ends to work with the compressor, you have to buy them

I like the hose. What I didn't like was this one. I really wish it came with ports for connecting to an air compressor. They come with nothing extra. Just a hose with brass ends on it. The way it is shipped it doesn't hook up to an air compressor at all. You will need to purchase cables to connect to an auxiliary compressor. Again, as long as everything works. Nothing seems to be leaking. Just go to the store to buy what you need to make it work with your device.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Not sure

Very durable hose suitable for power tool parts and accessories

These hoses are ideal when you are looking for an extremely durable, lightweight and flexible hose. Much lighter and more flexible than my Goodyear tube. I work in construction and these hoses have been through several roofing and siding jobs. Fantastic stop. However, they are not as light and flexible as the Flexzilla hose. They are double what I need in a rooftop environment. My Flexzilla hose is much better for interior work like decoration due to its flexibility and light weight.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Appearance

I found this pneumatic hose to be lighter compared to a standard rubber hose of the same pressure rating as advertised. However, the thinner version has the disadvantage that it buckles more easily than a thick-walled hose, even under pressure. The price was very reasonable so I took a chance on its durability which only time will tell. The fittings were removed and attached directly to this hose as the middle of an approximately 60 foot long hose, with short lengths of standard weight rubber…

Pros
  • Good value for money
Cons
  • not strong

Mission:…. Prepare your lawn watering system for winter. A cold front sets in on Monday, October 28, 2019. A low of 28 degrees Fahrenheit is forecast. The irrigation company says the earliest they can come is November 8th which is an absolute NO! Forecast for October 30th, 22 degrees! Hooray! Ordered 1) Bostitch BTFP02012 6 Gallon 150 PSI Oil Free Compressor………………….$101.80 2) BluBird Lightest Flexible Rubber Air Hose (3/8" x 25') – BB3825.……….$19.99 3) Hromee 20 pc 1/4" NPT Airgun and Brass…

Pros
  • Outstanding Overall Achievement
Cons
  • Doubtful

Pros
  • Easy to use: lays flat, does not kink under pressure, does not stick or foul like plastic and hybrid hoses and is much easier to clean.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
