Bilge hose

[David]

I have to re-hab my bilge hose install done by the previous owner. My pumps (Rule) all use 1 1/8 ID hose. I would like to re-plumb them with smooth wall hose but cannot find it in this seemingly odd ID. All I can find is that flimsy flex stuff with the corrugated walls.What have you folks used?David

Adaptors

Find or make adaptors to a 1" common hose. It's NOT a high pressure system and should not be discharged below the water line, so perfection is not a must. Just needs to securely hold the flow.Fair winds~~~~~

I recommend using a Heavy-Duty Smooth-Walled hose for all critical underwater applications, including Bilge Pump Discharge (NOT “Bilge-Flex”).Shields 135 or 148 series “Smooth Bore” is available in 1-1/8" I.D.Groco makes a 1-1/4" threaded to 1-1/8" hose adaptor (for the Thru-Hull/Seacock end).
