    BluBird Oil Shield RMA Class A Air Hose - Beta Testing Ad

    Thank you, sir. I would like to add, and correct me if I'm wrong, the black Goodyear is not an RMA Class A oil-resistant hose and is probably not 300PSI. The Goodyear's 300PSI oil resistant hose will be even heavier. Also, true oil-resistant hoses tend to do much worse in cold-weather and the...

    Yes, these (and other BluBird hoses and hoses using the same technology) are made in India.

    BluBird Oil Shield RMA Class A Air Hose - Beta Testing Ad

    Great to see so much interest! And by the way, I forgot to mention. This would be a 3/8" x 50' 300PSI Rubber Hose in Yellow Color. We're almost done with our testing samples though. This is how the packaging will look.

    BluBird Rubber Hoses

    Oh, I hadn't noticed that! And I approved those. I checked the 3/8" where it's correct and assumed the spellings would be same across the board. Apparently, they were not. And thanks to you, we are already fixing that. So, thank you!

    BluBird Rubber Hoses

    The water hoses are on sea as I write this. Ideally, you should be able to get your hands on one in a couple more months.

    Menard's Deals Permathread!

    The best thing about the hose reel is the hose. Other than that, it's a well-built entry-level hose reel. It has a 12-point ratchet which allows much better length resolution (you can stop at many more lengths) than most other hose reels. And then again in the BluBird tradition, we test each...

    I'm the developer of BluBird, so I don't know how effective my opinion will be but I've to do this :P In a nutshell: Same weight. 100% Rubber (Flexilla is hybrid) as say, Goodyear's hoses, just much lighter and stronger. Much better in cold-weather. It'll be as flexible at -30 as Flexilla is at...

    BluBird Rubber Hoses

    AA/FC: Thank you. For showing trust. As far as kinking goes, you're right that it comes with the design of the hose. The braiding in the hose helps (over spiralling polyester) but we believe in constant improvement and will fix it (at least to an extent) soon. Also, more feedback is appreciated...

    BluBird Rubber Hoses

    Also, a couple things about the listing description. The hose reel is a tough and heavy reel. The hose is ultra-light. And the bend-restrictors are those like on the hoses and not like the one shown in the reel photo which is probably an older one. We will get the listing corrected but still...
