Contact: steven@ningboware.com Updated: 2026-09-05 A double-lock or interlocked metal shower hose winds interlocking metal strips into a flexible tube, giving the traditional metal look and a robust feel.

The outer surface is plated chrome. ZHSH0001 shows the classic spiral double-lock profile with a knurled cone nut on one end and a hex nut on the other; ZHSH0013 uses polished interlocking rings that read as a barrel-link chain, with a tapered cone nut. The construction is the reason hotels and gyms specify metal hoses: they survive being stepped on, wrapped around rails and pulled hard, and they keep the metal look for years when the plating is sound. ## Metal versus PVC: when each wins Interlocked metal hoses cost more than smooth PVC and weigh more, but they are the premium look and the durable choice. PVC hoses with a metal-look sleeve or chrome stripe give shelf appeal at lower cost and are lighter for kids and pet kits. ZHONGHE carries both so a range can offer a metal hose in the flagship set and a PVC hose in the value set from one supplier. ## Specifying a metal shower hose State the model, length, both nut types and washers, the thread for each end and the destination market, the plating finish, whether a salt spray report on the plated surface is required, and the packaging. 59 inch (1.5 m) and 79 inch (2 m) are the standard retail lengths. Hoses are checked at packing and matched to the head finish. ## FAQ ### Does ZHONGHE make stainless steel shower hoses?
