Abstract
A hose is described having the usual elongated polymeric body and a coiled insert member formed of a plurality of turns contained within the internal passageway of the hose. The hose body has a normal tendency to swell under elevated temperatures or pressure whereby the coiled insert member may shift axially. This problem is solved by application of a filamentary band of expansion resistant material extending circumferentially about the hose body, which prevents enlargement of the hose during use at elevated temperatures.
