I recently found out that the ends will blow off under certain circumstances. Was trying to find the source of a leak under my car so I grabbed some soapy water and the garden hose to spray it down. Hose had been laying in the 110° sun all day and as soon as I hit the lever on the nozzle the hose separated from the connection and soaked me in scalding water. Needless to say I wasn’t happy.Flexzilla makes a garden hose. The airlines did great at not kinking, we just had issues with the ends blowing off but a garden hose isn’t subject to the same pressures (hopefully lol)
