Zooming in I can see I used #12 5/8” Goodyear Galaxy 4826. I recall it was expensive but you only need a short piece. In my crimper I used the dies for #12.

They came out so nice. Very heavy hose. Thanks for the suggestion years ago Bill.

The new prebuilt hoses are expensive. And I’ve heard the aftermarket ones are of poor quality now. They get awful ratings online. So I was motivated to find a new type. Hose + tool came out to $200 which at the time was competitive with prebuilt hoses. But not anymore. $200 is a great deal.
