Effluent hoses are made easier to drag around by Hose Buoy, an NZ-made gadget that clamps to the hose.
It is made by CeeMee, a maker of plastic barrier systems.
The buoy also prevents hoses snagging on trees and posts.
Fitted near cam-locks it protects them by keeping them off the ground and it acts as a guide to the whereabouts of hose joints – handy for visiting fert spreaders and contractors.
The buoy fits 50mm effluent drag hose and is made from the same high density material.
It serves as a highly visible indicator that can be seen from a distance.
Each unit comprises a two piece shell 360mm long and 180mm diameter at its widest point, with each half secured by 50mm zinc plated nuts and bolts.
