dredging hose preferences?

[aztim1010]

hi all,
can I get opinions on which type of suction hose to buy for my 3" home built dredge. I heard Kanaflex is good but what model? Any help with the type of pressure hose and footvalve hose would be helpful.
Thanks
Tim

Kanaflex 155,best UV protection to last many years,clear to see through for plugup removal,takes one heck of a beating,flexibility is great.I've sold,l in the day many 10,000s a miles and never a problem. Used it exclusively for all my ops for as long as memory works and all my fulltimers buds have ALL used it to--well used to in dredgeless insipid kalif-John

Hello G1,

Hope all is well with your dredge build. You can cut and paste the key words and do a search in about 5 seconds, DYODD, after the critical info is given. Work with what ya got, a key to mining success. Just a thought no harm meant.

Kanaflex website on the net lists dealers.All hose sellers,ag suppliers,and farm suppliers--oops septic pumpers LOVE the stuff too-the great UV protection is why all above outdoor as others made cheaper for indoor use and die a horrible death quickly from sun burn--- John
