Flexible stainless steel braided connection hose FERRO PWS5 1/2" female-female with gasket L=60 cm

FERRO PWS5 flexible stainless steel braided connection hose, female-to-female 1/2" with integrated gasket and 60 cm length, is intended for water supply connections to sanitary fixtures and appliances. The stainless steel braid provides corrosion resistance and mechanical protection while the internal hose ensures reliable water flow. The female threaded ends with a built-in gasket allow a sealed connection to compatible male fittings for domestic and light commercial plumbing installations.

Advantages

The stainless steel braid offers enhanced durability and protection against abrasion and external damage compared to plain rubber hoses. Flexibility allows routing in confined spaces and reduces stress on fittings during installation. Integrated gaskets at both female ends create a watertight joint without the need for additional sealing materials. The 60 cm length provides reach for a variety of sink, toilet, and appliance connections while maintaining manageable bend radius.

Suitable for

• Connecting taps and faucets to water supply lines
• Supply hose for dishwashers and washing machines in domestic settings
• Plumbing connections for toilets, bidets, and under-sink fixtures
• Light commercial sanitary installations where flexible routing is required

Key specifications

• Connection type: female-to-female threaded ends, nominal 1/2"
• Length: 60 cm
• Outer braid: stainless steel for corrosion resistance
• Inner hose: flexible water-grade material suitable for potable water
• Sealing: integrated rubber gaskets in each female connector
• Application: cold and hot water supply within typical household pressure ranges

How to use

Before installation, ensure water supply is shut off and the threads on mating fittings are clean. Hand-tighten the female connectors onto compatible male threaded fittings, then use a suitable wrench to secure a final short turn if required; avoid over-tightening which can damage the gasket or connector. After installation, restore water supply and check joints for leaks. If a leak is present, slightly tighten the connector or inspect the gasket for proper seating.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, avoid excessive bending or kinking of the hose and prevent contact with sharp edges. Use the hose within standard household water pressure and temperature ranges; if the installation requires higher pressure, consult technical specifications of the fixture or a professional. Replace the hose if signs of wear, fraying of the braid, or persistent leaks appear.
