Care & Maintenance

Rinse the hose and fittings thoroughly with fresh water after diving and allow them to dry before storage. Periodically inspect the braided exterior, fittings, strain relief, threads, and O-ring for wear, abrasion, corrosion, or damage. Replace any high-pressure hose showing signs of deterioration or leakage.

Expert Insight

The main advantage of the XS Scuba Miflex Carbon HD hose is reduced bulk and weight without changing the standard high-pressure connection format. Its slim braided construction makes it especially useful for divers who want cleaner hose routing around an SPG, console, or other compatible high-pressure instrument.
