    I suppose it could be a defect, but I really doubt it.
    I don't. Not all grease hoses are created equal. I have had cheaper ones bubble.

    I suggest you try again. I have a napa grease hose I've been using for over a year. It even survived my tank reg creeping and dumping 2200psi.

      The brand I bought was powerbuilt, the only one they sell at Kragen's. 3500psi working, 11,600psi burst.

        JW, but how in the heck do you use grease hose as airline for your gun? Do you have to add threaded pieces on each end of the hose so ya can hook it up to the gun?

          Stainless steel is by far the safest, most practical type of hose.

          can you honestly tell me that there isnt enough flow in a 850psi line?

            I've used GG hose on my EMag now for two years (the same piece of hose) and I've never had a problem. Like someone else said, try to find some better quality stuff.

              Well, SS line is the best imo. I' stick with it.

                Junkie, greese gun hoses already have the correct size threads on them. I guess I'll try to look for a "better" brand heh..

                    IMO

                    SS-Safest
                    Macro-Practical

                    More practical because, its cheaper, easier to work with, and has quick disconnects without having to buy them.

                    I'm considering picking up a good SS setup though.
