Parker's Series 128 Nexbraid PVC Potable Water By-Pass Hose is a versatile, flexible transfer hose for temporary water supply and bypass lines where service has been curtailed due to construction. The thick wall is kink resistant for unimpeded flow and is 25% lighter than comparable rubber hose for easy handling. The smooth tube protects the integrity of water and does not impart taste or odor, and the distinctive blue cover inhibits algae growth for safe, sanitary service. Series 128 hose is much easier to connect, couple, install and remove than polyethylene pipe, saving time, effort and expense.
