The Active 50’ Pressure Washer Extension Hose is our premium hose offering which has been optimized for use with the Active range of Pressure Washers. This pressure hose meets the grueling industry standards of durability in terms of heat, expansion and salt tests that makes it over built for the pressure and flow output of any electric pressure washer in the market. Active believes in building to user requirements, hence a unique feature of this hose is the 5/16 diameter sleeve, which provides a perfect balance between the weight saving nature of a ¼” hose and durability of a 3/8” hose. This hose allows you to get 7.7+ LPM (2+ GPM) we promise with our pressure washers due to its flexible and durable steel braided construction.
The construction of the Active hose is full 304 stainless steel 3/8” female quick connects on the exit and 3/8" male quick connects on the inlet. The hose body is 5/16” diameter with a steel braided real rubber construction for a perfect balance between flexibility and durability in a weight saving design.
The Active 50’ Extension Pressure Hose is rated for a maximum of 4000 PSI operating pressure and 45 LPM (12GPM) of flow at a peak operating temperature of 60°C (140°F) enabling a broad operating range for any residential or commercial electric and gas-powered pressure washer.

What generator/ power bank spec do I need to power the Active 2.0 in a mobile set-up?
The Active 2.0 requires a generator or power bank with rated running watts of 1800W and surge watts of 2100W. Meeting the spec will ensure you can operate the pressure washer without any disruptions.
What are the required inlet pressure and flow specs required to operate the Active 2.0?
The pressure washer operating output is a 1100 PSI and 2.0 GPM. The minimum required inlet pressure and flow is 40 PSI and 4.8 GPM to ensure the washer operates as intended.
What are the pump adapter connection specs on the Active 2.0?
The pressure washer inlet side comes with the standard garden hose adapter. The outlet of the pressure washer is M22-14mm. When it comes to using accessories or quick connects, ensure the spec matches the pump requirements.
What nozzle orifice size is compatible with the Active 2.0?
The Active 2.0 comes with a 3.7 orifice size (est. 1.3mm) This is done to ensure the machine outputs the best balance of pressure and flow under 10A current draw. If you are to change the nozzles for varying applications, we recommend the use of nozzles between 3.5 to 5.0)

You can use any aftermarket hose with the Active 2.0 as long as it is compatible with the M22-14mm outlet adapter. The preferred hose type and length is steel braided rubber hose under 100 ft. in length. Non steel braided hosing may expand under pressure and prevent the pressure washer from reaching its peak pressure (continuous running)
