I think I have a solution to stuck sparges in my braided hose MLT...
I should be able to insert an open-loop (compression) spring inside the braid to keep it round.
I can't find anything suitable at home stores.
Grainger has stainless steel springs you can order, a 5 pack, 3/8" x .022 open loop, stainless steel spring. They are only 3/8" overall length, but I figure placing or even wire tying 2 or three inside the braided sleeve would keep the braids shape??? What do you guys think?
Is there anything we can just pick up at Home Despot or Lowes/Ace that will work? All I have found are screen and door closers that extension springs - they are a more solid/closed spring.
Would it be easier to just wind some SS wire around a stick, and wedge it inside?
