MTS Hose + Fittings 20mm x 20m 6-Year

The MTS Reinforced Garden Hose (20mm x 20m) with a 6-year design life is a heavy-duty watering solution designed for both residential and light agricultural use. The "20mm" diameter (3/4 inch) allows for a significantly higher water flow compared to standard 12mm household hoses, making it ideal for filling large troughs, pools, or using with high-flow irrigation systems.

Key Performance Features

• Reinforced 3-Ply Construction: Manufactured using a cross-woven reinforcement layer that provides excellent kink resistance and high pressure tolerance.
• Virgin Raw Materials: Made from high-grade virgin PVC to ensure the hose remains flexible and durable over its lifespan.
• High Pressure Rating: Features a minimum burst pressure of 2500 kPa, ensuring it can handle fluctuations in municipal or pump water pressure.
• 6-Year Design Life: UV-stabilized to resist the harsh South African sun, preventing the hose from becoming brittle or cracking prematurely.
• Complete Fittings Set: This specific SKU typically includes the necessary connectors (tap adaptor and hose-end connectors) to get you started immediately.

Usage & Care Tips

• Water Expansion: In the summer heat, avoid leaving the hose pressurized while sitting in the sun. Turn off the water at the tap and squeeze the nozzle to release pressure; this prevents the hose from "ballooning" or weakening.
• Storage: To maintain the 6-year lifespan, store the hose on a hose reel or hanger in a shaded area when not in use.
• Fittings Check: If you notice a leak at the tap, check the rubber O-ring inside the connector. These are inexpensive to replace and ensure a watertight seal.
