Clean Storm 20131504, Solution Carpet & Tile Cleaning Hose 1/4in ID x 160 ft 3000 PSI Non-Marking Steel Braid
Description
The Clean Storm 20131504 is a commercial-grade 1/4" ID x 160 ft solution carpet and tile cleaning hose engineered to withstand high-pressure, high-temperature truckmount extractor applications up to 3,000 PSI and 250°F. Built with a heavy-duty single wire braided steel core encased in a non-marking composite rubber jacket, this hose provides exceptional strength and kink-resistant flexibility for demanding professional restoration and pressure washing tasks. Designed specifically to match the capacity of standard live hose reels, each 160-foot length features heavy-duty protector sleeves on both ends along with specialized male pipe connections—one 3/8" NPT Male solid fitting and one 3/8" NPT Male swivel end to eliminate twisting during installation.
Features
- High-Pressure & High-Heat Rating: Capable of handling continuous operating pressures up to 3,000 PSI and fluid temperatures reaching 250°F.
- Single Wire Steel Braid Construction: Delivers rugged outer durability and high burst resistance while retaining lightweight flexibility for easy maneuvering.
- Non-Marking Composite Jacket: Premium rubber exterior prevents unsightly scuffs, marks, and streaks on client flooring, tiles, and baseboards.
- Installation Swivel Fitting: Features a 3/8" MIP swivel on one end to simplify reel mounting without binding, twisting, or stressing the hose assembly.
- Optimal 160-Foot Length: Engineered specifically to fill 160 ft live solution reels, perfectly pairing with standard 150 ft of 2" vacuum hose plus a 10 ft leader hose.
- Protective Strain Relief Sleeves: Heavy-duty rubber bend restrictors on both ends shield connection points against stress, cracking, and premature wear.
- Versatile Multi-Surface Capability: Outperformed in commercial carpet extraction, tile and grout cleaning, pressure washing, and sewer jetting operations.
Applications
- High-Heat Truckmount Carpet Extractors: Compatible with all major commercial high-temperature and high-pressure truckmount cleaning systems.
- Commercial Tile & Grout Cleaning: High-pressure solution delivery for hard surface spinners, surface cleaners, and pressure washing rigs.
- Live Solution Hose Reels: Fits standard 160 ft live solution reels integrated into carpet cleaning vans, trailers, and mobile detailing units.
- Sewer Jetting & Hydro-Jetting Lines: Operates effectively as a flexible, high-pressure jetter hose line for pipe and drain clearing.

Tips and Additional Information
Thread Sealing Practices: Always apply high-quality PTFE thread tape or specialized liquid thread sealant to male NPT pipe threads prior to connection. Thread sealant prevents pressurized leaks and galling between brass, steel, and stainless steel fittings under high temperature.
Live Swivel vs. Non-Live Installation Swivel: The 3/8" male swivel end on this hose is designed as a non-live installation swivel. Its primary function is to permit effortless thread engagement and mounting on hose reels without twisting the assembly over itself during initial setup. It is not intended to rotate continuously under active high-pressure fluid flow.
Installation Alignment & Setup: A 160-foot solution hose is sized specifically to fill standard live solution reels. When spooling onto your rig, pair this hose with a matching vacuum hose set (such as three 50 ft sections of 2" ID vacuum hose plus a 10 ft 1.5" ID whip leader) for identical run lengths at the job site.
Pre-Installation Inspection: Inspect outer protective bend sleeves and brass/steel threaded ends for damage before pressurizing the line. Ensure quick-disconnect couplers (sold separately) are rated for at least 3,000 PSI and 250°F fluid transfer.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does this hose include quick disconnect (QD) fittings?
A: No. The hose features male pipe threaded fittings (3/8" Mip swivel on one end and 1/4" Mip on the other). Standard 1/4" male and female brass or stainless steel quick disconnects must be purchased separately if required for your setup.
Q: Is the 3/8" end a live rotary swivel during operation?
A: No. The swivel fitting is an installation swivel designed to assist with winding and threading the hose onto your reel without twisting or kinking the hose body. It should not be used as a continuous live rotary union while pressurized.
Q: Why is this solution hose length 160 feet instead of 150 feet?
A: Standard live solution hose reels are sized to accommodate up to 160 ft of 1/4" ID hose. This length perfectly balances with standard vacuum hose runs (150 ft of main 2" vacuum hose plus a 10 ft 1.5" whip leader line) so both hose setups extend evenly to the work site.
Q: Can I select a specific jacket color (Blue or Gray)?
A: Hoses are manufactured and filled in both blue and gray non-marking jacket colors depending on factory production runs. Specific color selection cannot be guaranteed upon order fulfillment.
Warranty & Safety Information
Warranty Coverage: Clean Storm solution hoses are covered by a standard manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and factory workmanship under normal operating conditions. Warranty claims cover structural failure, manufacturing seam defects, or coupling detachment under rated operating limits.
Conditions Voiding Warranty: Warranty is void if the hose is operated beyond its maximum rated capacity of 3,000 PSI or 250°F, subjected to vehicle run-overs or severe mechanical crushing, used with incompatible corrosive chemical fluids, or if the installation swivel is forced to function as a live continuous rotary joint under full pressure.
Safety Precautions: Never attempt to connect, disconnect, or adjust fittings while the solution line is pressurized. High-pressure fluid injection hazards can cause severe injury. Inspect outer protective sleeves and hose jacket regularly for abrasion, wire braid exposure, or severe kinks before pressurizing with high-temperature truckmount equipment.
