Best and worst solution hose on the market?
- Thread starter icleancarpetz
- Start date
Why blue! I've had the same orange parker for years. I hand roll my lead 100' and it has no memory what so ever. It's worth the hassle.
However, if blue is better...
It is.. I have some old orange also, bring on the blue! Wait is that a trademark infringement?

Jordan; Make sure your quote is for the 1035 HT hose.
HT stands for High Temp.
Some blue hose is #1035A rated for a lower temp.

You want Parflex. It stays cool to the touch because it has no steel braid inside. It puts more of your heat to your water and to your cleaning project.

Thanks!

Cobb's has a good price on Parflex but last 2 times I ordered they could only offer it in yellow (orange).
They'd probably be interested in providing hose for a group buy. Just hoping they could get it in blue for that.

Unless someone has some old stock I believe Parker discontinued the 1035A over a year ago

@John Olson or @Larry Cobb interested in offering a deal to MB'ers for blue Parflex? What would be the per ft price?

When I went to MF Santa Cruz I seen and felt the GoodYear hose that was Nylon braided... Wasn't very hot to the touch like steel braided was... I was told it was some expensive hose from @Brian H .... Pressure rating was the only down fall as it was rated for 1200psi or 1500....
I have a parflex 100' lead line and I'm looking at getting another one but 125' this time... I hand coil with the over/under technique and it doesn't coil or bunch up...

Parker requires a very large order for the Blue color in 1035HT (several 1000 feet).
I'll check on their current requirements.

Will he cut and crimp 200ft sections? You would know best, will this hose work well on a reel in a continuous 200ft line or will the memory pose some issues reeling it up?
Just use a field crimp.. You don't have to have crimps put on Parker like you do on Goodyear.
Guy's that I have seen that have it on a reel start with a steel braid to make the loops bigger.. I would not want a 200ft line, 100ft is great here.

It reels up fine
Take your new section out on a hot day and lay it out and let it cook in the sun out back. Then have a tugAwar with it

Is the hose stamped 1035HT or 1035A on the cover ??
P.S. Parker does not recommend field crimps.
They are OK for wire-braid hose with the correct outer diameter.

The 100 footer I got from Olson has 1035HT stamped on it.

Favorite excuse of manufacturers or distributors---it's alway ALL your fault.

I was looking at the specs on the Parker 1035ht. It says max temp is 230 degrees f. Seems a little low for some of the truck mounts out there that pushing 250 f

Mark or any other Butler-ite: Just curious about the Butler hoses. On their site it says they are Steel braided.
"High Pressure Hose - 100' Grey- Our Price: $240.00 The Yellow- $275.00-
A durable high pressure hose for truckmount and portable machines. Constructed of a flexible synthetic compound and hi-tensile steel-braid reinforcement. The hose features a non-scuff, non-marring grey exterior and is supplied with factory installed crimped fittings and heat sleeve for comfortable handling. Hose is rated for 3,000 psi and a burst pressure rating of 12,000 psi at operating temperatures up to 250°F."
To me it sounds pretty much like good year style hose at a very high price. Anything special about it beside the price?
