They told us we had bought the wrong hose for our job , but they have send me a length of H/D hose to try and see what I think ,it only come the other day so have not used it yet, the guy came out from G and H and we talked about the hose and samples were sent back ,a nice guy but that was his job , time will tell if this new hose is any better then it will be the hard part doing a deal to get some more

Which green hose is it ?
3mm wall or 4mm
3mm is a waste of time and 8bar will blow it apart
Still got a pile of 4.5” snaptight
Running mostly Oraflex now though.
It’s not as tough as snaptight but a hell of a lot easier to handle on a daily basis
Yes we should be on 5” pipe but the jobs we do,at the moment what we run suits
I have one length of 4” blue snaptite and I hate it with a passion,the rest is black hilcoflex but a fair age,don’t want to buy hilcoflex and find it’s gone to shît.Still got a pile of 4.5” snaptight

Yes thats the oraflex we have,only got 1000m of it but use it daily
Most weeks we do million gallons a week.
Who do you buy it off?
C S Machinery are a mile down the road from us,they are SK agents and very keen on a deal. They normally have a few thousand meter in stock

What are you going to do when you have NVZ to work with ?
If you have 80 million gallons in stores to spread when the season opens ,plus what people store already, that's a big ask to do in few weeks before silage time starts ?
3 month closed period from October to January . Will give us 3 to 4 months to apply slurry for first cut depending on there cutting date.
