Engineered to be the toughest and lightest hose designed for marine and RV use, the FITT Marine & RV hose is half the weight and more compact than traditional PVC marine & RV hoses. It’s easy to handle and makes cleaning easier than ever.
This hose is suitable for marine and RV use. Resistance to UV rays, salt air and water makes it long lasting and durable, even in the most severe conditions.
Unique NTS chain mesh technology means the FITT Marine & RV will not kink or tangle. High Durable Technology (HD TECH) makes it abrasion-resistant, puncture-proof, highly manageable and flexible, even in extremely cold temperatures (-4 degrees F).
FITT Marine & RV is phthalate, PVC and lead-free, making it “drinking water safe.”
Can I connect two hoses?
Yes, you can connect two FITT Marine Caddy by screwing the male end into the female end. Please be aware that increasing the length may reduce the water flow rate, so you may experience a slight drop in pressure over that length of hose. However, you should still have ample pressure to use the hose as intended. Please be sure the hose is fully extended and not partially coiled or on a reel, as that will also affect the pressure.
