Akron's Hose Hoist is great for raising or lowering hose to and from the roof, through windows, over fence, or around many obstacles. It is very handy on steel anchor fences; place it over the top of a fence and use it to roll the hose freely in either direction. This tool will keep your hose safe from snags and tearing as you move it to where you need it. This hose hoist, weighing 7 1/8 lbs. (3.4 kg) is lightweight, comes with a tie down hook, and is a basic engine and truck company tool.
