Flexible stainless steel water hose TUCAI TAQ WW-3/8 x 3/8 L=40 cm, connection hose

Flexible stainless steel water connection hose TUCAI TAQ WW-3/8 x 3/8 L=40 cm is a braided supply hose designed for potable water installations. The hose has a stainless-steel braided exterior and 3/8" female fittings on both ends, with a nominal length of 40 cm. It is intended to provide a flexible, corrosion-resistant link between plumbing fixtures, faucets, mixers or appliances and the water supply, simplifying repairs and new installations.

Advantages

The braided stainless-steel construction offers corrosion resistance and mechanical protection while retaining flexibility for tight installation spaces. Identical 3/8" female connections on both ends make the hose compatible with many standard fittings and reduce the need for adapters. The 40 cm length balances reach and compact routing, and the hose is suitable for potable water use, maintaining hygiene standards in domestic and commercial applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting faucets and mixers to the water supply
• Linking small household appliances (e.g., dishwashers, under-sink units) where compatible fittings are present
• Temporary or permanent repairs of flexible water supply lines
• Plumbing installations in kitchens, bathrooms and utility rooms

Key specifications

• Material: stainless-steel braided outer layer with internal flexible hose
• Connection type: 3/8" female on both ends
• Length: 40 cm
• Intended medium: potable (drinking) water
• Application: flexible water supply connection for fixtures and appliances

How to use

Before installation, shut off the water supply and relieve pressure at the fixture. Verify that the 3/8" female fittings match the male threads of the fixture and supply valve. Hand-start the fittings to avoid cross-threading, then tighten with an appropriate wrench until secure; avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to fittings or sealing elements. After installation, restore water supply and check all connections for leaks. If leaks are detected, re-tighten carefully or inspect sealing washers and threads.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, avoid continuous exposure of the hose to temperatures or pressures beyond typical domestic water supply limits, and ensure the hose is not kinked or sharply bent during installation. Periodically inspect visible sections for wear or corrosion of end fittings and replace the hose if any damage or persistent leaks are found.
