Hi all to the guys using a 4 inch dredge,

I have just replaced me suction hose with a PVC wire bound hose from Tradetested on Trade Me,

Wall thickness is about 3.5mm , it is smooth on the inside, and is quite flexiable .

For a 8 meter length including postage is only $ 95.00, !!!

Cant really go wrong at that price

Cheers
Steve

Hi Stu
Checked out Tradetested website and found the hose, 8 metres for $89 plus postage. Go to www.tradetested.co.nz/pu...-delivery-hose-4-8m.html
Looks as if it would be worth a try.Cheers
