This is a universal 2.5 - meter cold water dual inlet hose. One end features a 3/4' BSP straight nut and tail, while the other end has a 3/4' BSP right - angled nut and tail. Part number is W046C. It's similar to models W045A, W045G, and W046. The hose is grey, 2.5 meters long, and 10mm in pressure capacity. It comes with two 3/4' BSP nut and tails (actual thread diameter is 1'). It's only suitable for cold water with a maximum temperature of 22°C. It includes tap washers. This hose fits most dishwashers and a wide range of washing machines of all sizes (large, medium, and small) where the inlet hoses are screwed onto the rear of the machine. However, it's not suitable for commercial machines like Maytag, Kleenmaid, Speed Queen, etc., which require longer - than - normal hoses. We've been supplying appliance parts to the trade and retail for over 25 years, so you can buy with confidence.
Using this hose is easy. First, make sure your washing machine or dishwasher is turned off and unplugged. Then, screw one end of the hose (either the straight or right - angled end depending on your machine's setup) onto the cold water inlet at the back of the machine. Next, attach the other end to the cold water tap. Don't forget to use the included tap washers to prevent leaks. Remember, this hose is only for cold water, so never use it with hot water as the maximum temperature it can handle is 22°C. Also, it's not suitable for commercial machines. When it comes to maintenance, check the hose regularly for any signs of wear or damage, like cracks or leaks. If you notice any issues, replace the hose right away to avoid water damage to your appliance or your home.
