HOWEVER !!! The internal surface of
my hoses are hexagonal in shape .. not circular. Regardless of what
type of repair product I use and regardless of how tight I clamp down
.. they LEAK. I am 70 years of age and have been playing "repair the
hose" most of my life with great success. These hoses just do not
accept the repair "kits".

So, once again .. any idea of where I can get a re-threading die?

Why do we always get the "HOWEVER" after the fact?


Good qustion.

For the cost of a new
die, you can buy a new 125 foot hose at WalMart with a 10 year gaurantee.

But then he wouldn't get to buy a new tool.
