Shut off the water supply valve before disconnecting or connecting the hose. Hand-tighten the brass nuts to the supply valve and appliance fitting — do not use a wrench or pipe wrench, as overtightening can damage the brass threads or crush the washer seal. Verify there are no kinks in the hose after routing and confirm no leaks are present before returning the system to service.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInner Diameter\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10 feet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e: 125 psi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Temperature\u003c\/strong\u003e: 180 degrees F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Virgin PVC with polyester yarn braiding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter Braid Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: 304 Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFitting Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome-plated brass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification\u003c\/strong\u003e: IAPMO Listed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.059 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: BK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 496-922DIB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"B\u0026K","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51347927564594,"sku":"496-922DIB","price":25.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310549828.jpg?v=1782116275","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/bk-496-922dib-ice-maker-connector-hose-1-4-in-x-10-ft","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
