Today I had guy ask if I whould put a s tube on a rubber hose to do icf basement, so I put on my 5-4 and 4-3 s tube then my 3in hose with no end on it, and I thout the guy was going to explode. I explaned that it was unsafe to have steel on the end and assured him this was common practice, all he wanted to do was argue so I showed him on concretepumping what happens to people when they pump with steel on hose Victory!!! And safe
