Garden Hose Differences

1, Materials of construction

Some garden hoses are made of nylon or other plastic compounds while others are made of rubber. The main motivation behind rubber garden hoses is that they coil easier than plastic ones and they are less likely to kink. On the other hand, rubber hoses are generally much more expensive than nylon or other plastic garden hoses. Sometimes you might pay twice as much for a garden hose made of rubber. Plastic garden hoses are more durable than rubber ones and are less likely to get pierced or permanently crimped.

Now more and more factory use PVC instead of rubber for saving cost,but the character and effect is similar as rubber hose.

2, Garden Hose Shapes

Another possible difference between garden hoses might be the shape of the hose. Some garden hoses are just tubes that have a rigid construction while others are tubes that will flatten when they are not in use.

The flat garden hose is a plus because it allows for easier rolling and storage. It not only takes up less room when it is rolled, but you are less likely to have excess water in the garden hose after you are done using it.

Another garden hose shape is the coil garden hose which looks like a large spring. The coil is usually not very big when it is being stored and in its compact form, but the garden hose length is actually anywhere from twenty five to fifty feet. A fifty foot hose can be as small as thirty four inches long when in its compact form.

3, Sprinkler Hoses

A sprinkler garden hose has small holes along the length of the hose so that when it is turned on, the water comes out of several places rather than just at the garden hose nozzle. Some garden sprinkler hoses have small holes and others have small slits. You can face the openings upward to provide sprinkling capabilities or downward if you want to soak an area of the ground. Sprinkler hoses are an interesting variation on a garden hose, but be careful not to get it mixed up with your other garden hose because you could end up getting very wet.

4. Expand Hose.
