Single wire vs. Double wire hoses

Single wire vs. Double wire hoses

At Hotsy Minnesota, we believe that the best hose for your operation is the one that gets the job done!  Here we will introduce you to 2 hoses that are widely used in pressure washing.  The single wire hose, and the double wire hose.  Choosing the hose that is right for you will depend on your machine, cleaning project and budget.  Here are the differences:

Single Wire

  • lighter weight
  • more flexible
  • more economical
This hose would be for up to 3000 PSI.  The drawback for this hose is that it can rupture easier if it gets hooked on an object and you pull hard.
Double Wire

  • heavier
  • more durable
  • abrasion proof
This hose is better for up to 5000 PSI.  The double wire construction makes it more durable and the inner hose is still protected even if the outer braid gets damaged.
Our knowledgeable technicians can help you choose the right hose for your cleaning job.
