What is the difference between a blow molded hose and a stretch hose?
I’ve searched for a comparison in every fashion I could possibly think of wording and I can’t find any answers.
Thank-you for any information you can share.
A curious consumer wanting to become the knowledgeable consumer.
Hi there, I think the phrase “Blow Molded” describe how the hose is formed, and the word “Stretch” describes if the hose is extendable, so they are not comparable to each other? Don’t know if it is right, it is just my opinion.
