Did you know that slips, trips and falls are one of the top three leading causes of work-related injuries? That’s why Swan and Goodyear have teamed up to make the Goodyear High Visibility Rubber+ hose. Designed in bright yellow to stand out, the Goodyear high-visibility rubber hose is made to prevent accidents on the job site.

The Goodyear high-visibility hose is made of premium rubber, the hallmark of the Goodyear brand, with an exclusive formula that makes it twice as strong and yet 40 percent lighter than standard rubber hoses. This means the Goodyear rubber hose can both endure heavy use and be managed with ease for any industrial application.

The Goodyear high-visibility rubber hose has a strong 400+ PSI burst strength and is available as both a 5/8-inch rubber water hose and as a 3/4-inch rubber water hose, with the extra-large 3/4-inch hose moving 20% more water. Swan’s patented Hose Armour® at the female coupling prevents kinking at the water source.

Extreme temperatures are not an issue for the Goodyear rubber water hose. It remains flexible down to -40 degrees Fahrenheit. This exceptional flexibility also helps the Goodyear water hose tackle small jobs in tight spaces.

The extra-large aluminum couplings make it easy to connect the Goodyear high-visibility hose to the water source and accessories, and are crush-proof even under the weight of heavy machinery.

As an added bonus, the Goodyear high-visibility rubber hose meets lead-free and phthalate-content standards. A limited lifetime warranty ensures the Goodyear hose is designed to stand up to the rigors of the toughest watering projects for years to come.

How Do I Set Up My Hose?

  • Set up your hose outside in temperatures above 70 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure maximum flexibility.
  • Remove all packaging and ties.
  • Check that the washer is properly seated in the coupling that attaches to the water source.
  • Unwind the hose loosely in a circular motion before attaching it to the water source.
  • Run water through the hose until the water exiting the hose is cool.
  • Leave the hose laid out straight and allow it to heat up during the day.
  • Wind the hose back accordingly.

How Do I Care for My Hose?

  • Disconnect your hose from any standard metal faucet/spigot/hose bib and metal hose attachment and then reconnect at least twice per year to maintain a proper seal of the washer.
  • Before reconnecting, loosen any corrosion evident on the hose coupling, standard metal faucet/spigot/hose bib and metal hose attachment caused by weather or environmental elements, which can cause the hose to fuse to the faucet and/or attachment.
  • Always inspect the washer for proper placement and clear any buildup on the washer, coupling or faucet. This will help prevent potential leaks.
  • Never overtighten coupling connections. Normally, tightening the coupling connections by hand is sufficient. Using a wrench to tighten the couplings might stop a leak in the short-term; however, it can damage the washer, compromising it for future connections.
  • Do not pull and stretch the hose to reach a watering location beyond the length of the hose. When the hose starts to pull off the ground, you put excess force on its connections to the water source and any attachment such as a nozzle. This will not only damage your hose, it can also damage the plumbing that feeds the water source, as well as the attachment.
  • Be careful not to drive over your hose. This can damage the hose and drastically reduce its life.
  • If your hose is left in a shady spot, its exterior can be cleaned periodically with a mild soap-and-water solution to reduce the chance of organic growth. How Do I Store My Hose?
  • Drain your hose when you’re not using it. Water left in a hose for extended periods of time can cause bacteria to form.
  • Once the hose is drained, the male and female ends can be connected for storage. Washer replacement is suggested annually or after a prolonged connection.
  • When coiling the hose for storage, try to do so without leaving any kinks in the hose. A hose stored with kinks will most likely kink in these same locations very easily once the hose is put back in use. Prolonged kinks create weak spots in the hose.
  • Store the hose indoors when not in use.
  • Flush your hose with water when put back in use.

Warnings

  • Do not run hot water through your hose (unless your hose is rated for hot water).
  • Do not run liquids other than water through your hose as they are only designed for use with water.
  • Do not leave the hose under pressure when not in use. Heat or pressure can damage your hose and cause it to leak or burst.
  • Our hoses are not intended for indoor use. Garden hoses are intended for use in residential and/or commercial water systems that have typical average water pressures up to approximately 100 PSI. Garden hoses should not be used for system pressures based upon burst rating.
