Valterra tote tank hose 5' Red — heavy-duty 18 mil UV vinyl cover with rotating adapter

The Valterra D04-0111 is a heavy-duty 5-foot tote tank hose built with an 18 mil UV-protected vinyl cover, deluxe rotating adapter, and factory-installed fittings for reliable fluid transfer.

Designed for RVs, boats, utility carts and portable tote tanks, this compact hose balances durability with flexibility. Its thick vinyl jacket resists sun degradation while the pre-attached fittings and rotating adapter simplify hookups and reduce strain during use. At five feet, it’s long enough for most tote-to-tank connections yet short enough to store neatly when not in use.

How does the 18 mil vinyl cover improve longevity?

The thick vinyl jacket protects the inner hose from abrasion, cracking and ozone exposure, extending service life outdoors. UV stabilizers in the cover slow color fade and material breakdown when left in sunlight.

• 18 mil vinyl resists wear and punctures
• UV protectant reduces sun damage and brittleness
• Smooth exterior eases cleaning and prevents snags

What convenience features speed setup and reduce leaks?

Valterra installs fittings at the factory so you don’t need to assemble connectors on site. The deluxe rotating hose adapter has four hooks that swivel, keeping connections aligned and preventing kinks during transfer.

• Pre-attached fittings for immediate use out of the box
• Rotating adapter with four hooks minimizes twisting stress
• Short 5' length limits excess slack that can cause tangles

Is this hose appropriate for common tote tank and RV tasks?

Yes — the hose is sized and equipped for standard tote and portable tank fluid handling tasks like water transfer, waste pump connections and utility fill lines. It’s intended for general transfer applications; match compatibility with your fittings and fluids before use.

• Ideal for tote-to-tank water transfer and pump hookups
• Compatible with standard threaded fittings when matched correctly
• Suitable for outdoor use around RVs, boats, campsites and garages

How do I store and maintain the Valterra tote tank hose?

Keep the hose coiled loosely in a shaded, dry area when not in use to preserve the vinyl cover. Rinse after contact with saltwater or chemicals and inspect fittings and the adapter for wear before each season.

• Coil without sharp bends to avoid kinks
• Rinse and dry after exposure to salt or contaminants
• Check pre-attached fittings and rotating adapter for secure seals
