Change your Macroline

[Ebbed]

If you wanna see braided steel blow, put a sharp bend in it...

I'm in the process of switching to macro, the same stuff displayed above. I say for the POSSIBLE one time inconvenience of blowing macro line and emptying a tank of air trumps the hundreds of times of unscrewing static SS fittings and fiddling with tephlon tape. That being said I'm glad i ordered extra, So i can replace the lines every season.

Ive seen more people hurt with both improperly connected remote lines

so true so true

Quick disconnects work to cut down the process...

not another one of these threads

Due to the wide variability in macroline types (material type, thickness, rating) and use/abuse scenarios (installation, low pressure vs. high pressure, damage), without SPECIFIC DATA, anecdotal threads like this inevitably turn into... baseless fear mongering. (I know OP was just wanting to make an advisory warning... but it was obvious where this would head right from the start.)

Now, if you had gone over and looked at the marker and found the labeling on the line and gotten the make and model, or at least taken a look at the thickness (or even the color), in addition to checking what the tank output was set at, then that might be some useful information.
