Reduce sharp bends at the end of air and water hose that block flow and damage the hose. These flexible air and water hose kink absorbers support the connection between the hose and fitting. To install, push these kink absorbers over hose before attaching a fitting. If you’re having trouble getting them onto your hose, lubricate with soapy water. Once you’ve put on a fitting, slide these absorbers back toward the end of the air and water hose, securing them over the fitting’s connection point.

Choose a flexible hose kink absorber with an ID that is the same or slightly smaller than your hose's OD. Use with crimp-on ferrules or with push-on hose fittings; the end will not stretch over most hose clamps.
