Lead-free, FDA-sanctioned, and built to keep water flowing instead of kinking off at the worst moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Teknor Apex NeverKink RV\/Marine Water Hose is the drinking water hose you hook up at the campground pedestal or the marina spigot to feed fresh water into your rig or your boat. It's a 5\/8-inch inside diameter line, 50 feet long, which is plenty of reach to get from most water hookups to your fill inlet without playing tug of war with a hose that's too short.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's the thing about cheap water hoses. They kink right at the coupling, the flow chokes off, and you're standing out there straightening a hose instead of filling your tank. This one is built to fight that. The NeverKink construction holds its shape under pressure and around corners, so water keeps moving even when the hose loops behind a wheel or over the gunwale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's made from FDA-sanctioned, lead-free material, which matters because this is water you're drinking, cooking with, and brushing your teeth with. You don't want a plain garden hose leaching who-knows-what into your fresh tank. This one is rated safe for potable water, full stop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe couplings are where a lot of hoses fall down, and there's some real thought here. The Grip-Tite coupling threads onto the community water faucet with a standard threaded connection, and the ThumThing grip gives you something to actually hold onto when you're tightening it down by hand. No more pliers chewing up the fitting. Cold hands at a fall campsite? You'll appreciate it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne note: this is not a heated hose. If you're camping below freezing and need to keep the line from icing up, you'll want a dedicated heated hose instead. For three-season RV use and boating, though, this is exactly what you want coiled in the wet bay. Fifty feet gives you room to work with wherever you park relative to the hookup, and when you're done it coils back down without a fight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/8-inch inside diameter and 50-foot length reach most campground pedestals and marina spigots without a second hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNeverKink construction resists kinking at the coupling and around corners, so flow stays steady under pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFDA-sanctioned, lead-free material rated safe for potable drinking water\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGrip-Tite coupling threads onto standard faucet connections for a secure hookup\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThumThing grip lets you tighten and loosen the coupling by hand, no pliers needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePurpose-built for RV and boat fresh water fill, not a repurposed garden hose\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Teknor Apex reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eIs this hose safe for drinking water?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eYes.
