how flexible is the hose

Lee, I used this hose for my boat fuel tanks that snaked through bulkheads for use as a filler hose. You could make approx a 16" diameter circle with this hose before it kinks. But it is a Fuel fill hose, marine grade. Good luck.

I used it for a filler hose on my boat,it went through a 90 degree bend with no problems.

I replaced all three lines. This was the most flexible. This hose did not have the manufacturer date on, which raised some concern. 5/8 was very stiff.

The hose is not very flexible, expect a 90 degree bend to be around a 15 inch radius. I ordered ten feet and it came rolled up in a box that was around 30 inches square. I had no issues getting it installed over the insert fittings on my boat.

Its pretty stiff , wouldn't recommend any sharp bends. but good strong fuel intake hose.

I like this hose so far.Not too heavy.A little weird in the flexibility part,the kinks kind of work them self out but you do have to help it.

Fairly rigid. I soaked it in hot water and was able to install it on a curved shower door.Definitely not very flexible.

I found the hose to be about as stiff as most other pressure washer hoses. It is stiff but after detaching the handle and the hose from the pressure washer it can be neatly wound up in a 20 inch circle.

It does lose some flexibility when in the cold which I would expect and my hose has been exposed to zero degrees. What I would do is take the hose to a warm place, then quickly take it to the cold environment after you have warmed the hose and hook it up in the cold environment . Unless your going to move the hose around in the cold allot I think your going to have to live with the stiff hose. I hope this helps. Jeff

It is a thin, extremely flexible hose that is very easy to manipulate. While I can't quantify how small one can wrap it up, I can say that it coils into a remarkably small circle. I am far more pleased with it than with old fashioned, stiff and bulky hoses -- and I think you will be pleased as well.

the hose has a smooth plastic like skin, but coils much easier than the hard plastic hoses. I coil it like a garden hose an have no trouble. Steve

By "relaxed", I assume you mean not compressed or stretched. My hose measures about 9 ft 5 inch when laid out on the floor without any stress. It can easily be stretched to 10 ft or compressed to 8 ft though.

I'll say for a high pressure hose it's fairly flexible.You will not find a high pressure hose that has an acceptable level of flex in conparison to low pressure hose.. There are some that are slightly more flexible but you will pay a much higher price in my oppinion.

Very flexible. In fact, it comes shipped rolled up in a tube. I thought it might take forever to hold it's shape but it unrolled flat without any problem.

it's enough stiff like any high-pressure hose. I've never used it in cool weather

Yes, It is flexible and not heavy at all. I use it on my nebulizer / oxygen hose also.

It is flexible. You can roll it up pretty easily. It is a little curvy when it unrolls but it flattens out pretty quickly.

The hose is about 16". The picture is accurate. The hose is flexible and does wrap to fit snugly in the storage bag. The hose fitting fits a bulk 20# tank with plenty of slack.

Great quality , nice and flexible , probably a bit heavier than a ridged type hose ,

I'm not sure I understand the question. The tubing is hollow (it can carry air) and it's rigid but will flex quite a bit without kinking. Hope that helps....

It's fairly flexible........I roll mine up like a sleeping bag and store it in my closet. Hope this helps.
