Flexible connector hose FERRO PWS72 braided steel, threaded 1/2" x 3/4", length 35 cm, with gasket

FERRO PWS72 braided steel flexible connector hose is designed to connect plumbing fixtures and appliances to potable water supply lines. With threaded female ends of 1/2" and 3/4" and a 35 cm length, the hose combines a compact profile with the reinforcement of a steel braid to resist kinking and mechanical damage while maintaining installation flexibility in kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms. The product is supplied with a sealing gasket for immediate fitting.

Advantages

The steel-braided outer layer increases abrasion and puncture resistance compared with plain rubber hoses while preserving bendability for tight installations. Threaded fittings on both ends ensure secure, leak-resistant connections to standard taps and appliance inlets. A supplied gasket simplifies the assembly and reduces the need for additional sealing materials during installation. The 35 cm length offers a balance between reach and space economy for under-sink and behind-appliance connections.

Suitable for

• Connecting kitchen faucets and mixers to water supply lines
• Linking washing machines, dishwashers and water heaters to inlet valves
• Replacing worn or damaged flexible hoses in bathrooms and utility rooms
• Installations requiring a compact, flexible water connection with mechanical protection

Key specifications

• Thread sizes: 1/2" and 3/4" (female on both ends)
• Length: 35 cm
• Outer material: stainless-steel braid for mechanical protection
• Inner tube: flexible water-grade hose suitable for potable water
• Sealing: supplied gasket for each connection
• Intended medium: cold and hot potable water

How to use

Before installation, shut off the water supply and relieve pressure by opening a downstream tap. Check the condition of the supplied gasket and insert it into the threaded female fitting. Hand-thread the hose onto the mating male threads of the faucet or appliance inlet, then tighten by hand and finish with an appropriate wrench turn without over-tightening to avoid damaging threads or compressing the gasket excessively. After installation, restore water supply and inspect all joints for leaks. If any leakage is detected, slightly tighten the connection or replace the gasket if damaged.

Usage recommendations

Use the hose only for potable water connections and avoid exposure to sharp edges or abrasive contact during and after installation. Do not bend the hose beyond its natural curvature; allow sufficient slack to prevent repeated stress at the fittings. Replace the flexible connector if you observe signs of corrosion, leakage, or external damage.
