The re-enforced ends help keep it from kinking, but will still kink if not careful.Can't beat the price either. Very nice air hose. I store all 100 ft of it on an electrical cord spool, fits perfect.
We stick with the 100 lenght because we are building hotels and such, besides going from the 50 to the 100 is only a few dollars difference and is worth it if it keeps you moving.Highly recommended But for those of you in the professional arena, the lighter weight will be a blessing in the 8th hour when you're trying to get those walls up before dark so that you can get paid in the next draw. We just ordered two more of these from Amazon (they are significantly cheaper at the moment than the local stores). These are the favorites among our construction company due to the light weight, durability, and the fact that they really don't kink.For those of you who are just working around the house, any old hose will do.
A little side note: these are clear and lets you know if your building up condensation in your tank and might be getting a little rust. Let's you get the compressor away from the house and are tough as nails. Very little wear on these with three months of hard use.
Would definitely buy another one when the need arises, just will tighten all fittings before using. Impossible to have come loose in shipping, so poor quality control by Hitachi. This air hose is definitely better than rubber types I have been using. Disappointed that the fitting on the female end was loose and had to be tightened to stop leak.
The hose covers the whole project. I'm building a two story 3000 sf house. It slips easily through the rafters and studs without hanging up. Hitachi 19413F 100 x 1/4-Inch Polyurethane Air HoseGreat hose. Used it the first day and have been using it every working day since.
