Question for HoseWrap (the UK product) Owners

[ProCarpenterRVA]

I got all excited reading about these new tapered hoses that are coming out but the reality of the situation is I have so many hoses that have the ridges that I would spend a small fortune replacing them with all these new hoses... I'd love to sleeve three or four hoses with a wrap and include a plug-in cord for a sander and another hose with a plug-it cord for a track saw. I found the HoseWraps UK site through investigating eBay listings for Festool hosewraps and I was wondering if anyone has used them and what your opinion is as far as durability and flexibility the hose if you've included a plug-it cord. They appeal to me because you can sleeve a 27mm through 50 mm hose with the same product so you could keep one around for any hose that you picked up and be ready to sleeve it... I have four hoses right now that I like to do something with and I adding the hosewraps to the cart last night I came up with sleeving all for 4 approximately 160 USD not a bad deal.

In North America those can both be one cord.  The heavier gauge TS55 cord will fit the sanders. But not the other way around.

Search “braided cable sleeving” you can get it half or quarter the price of HoseWrap product. Same thing. Just choose the correct size/diameter for your hose.
