Product Overview
When it comes to connecting your hose storage unit to the faucet, look no further than Ray Padula FlexLite Leader Hose. FlexLite premium lightweight hoses are designed to offer the same durability, functionality, and full-flow performance as heavy-duty traditional vinyl hoses with over 50% lighter weight construction. The ultra-flexible, compact design is easy to maneuver, store, and transport around the yard. The all new extra-large Comfi-Grip swivel couplings allows for the easiest faucet attachment, even with wet or gloved hands. This coupling is designed with a full grip swivel eliminating the need for any tools to create a watertight connection at the faucet, while crush-proof couplings last season-after-season. This 6 ft. hose has two FEMALE couplings – allowing it to be used with MALE threaded hose storage units. Other great features include an abrasion, puncture, and tear resistant outer jacket with a high, 600 PSI burst strength, making this hose a great choice for all tasks around the yard and jobsite. Exclusive Water Guard Technology ensures a leak free operation with every use, while Kink Shield Technology prevents kinking and twisting of your hose during use. FlexLite hoses also feature crush-proof aluminum couplings, a drinking water safe construction, as well as the ability to remain full flexible in temperatures as low as 35 deg. F. One more great feature? A lifetime warranty. 5/8 in. diameter, 6 ft. length.

- Make sure the washer is firmly in place inside the female coupling, and then attach the female end of the hose to the faucet. The washer must be firmly in place before attaching to the faucet to prevent leaks.
- Uncoil and straighten your hose to full length.
- Attach the other end of your hose to your hose storage unit. NOTE: This hose has two female threaded ends, for use with MALE inlet threaded hose storage. Be sure to check which type of threads your storage unit has prior to use.
- Never leave your hose pressurized while un-attended.
- Remove your hose from the faucet, completely drain of water, and store indoors before and during freezing weather.
- To ensure a leak-free operation, be sure the washer is firmly in place inside the female coupling. If you notice wear or tear on the washer, it can be removed and replaced for a leak free seal every time.
- Keep your hose in the shade whenever possible, especially in hot summer months. Water left in your hose in direct sunlight has the potential to expand, potentially damaging the hose.
- Never use your FlexLite hose with hot water.
- Did you know there’s one simple step you can take throughout the season to ensure a leak-free seal every time you use your hose? By disconnecting and re-connecting your FlexLite hose from any metal faucet or hose accessory, such as a nozzle, at least 3-4 times per year allows the washer to retain a proper seal. This also allows for loosening of any possible corrosion that may have formed from various weather and outdoor elements which can sometimes cause the hose to fuse to the faucet or hose attachments.
