Anyone have experience mixing hose ends and brands? Particularly Russell powerflex hose and hose ends. I need a 45° end but they are out of stock everywhere. I can get Aeroquip ptfe hose end but I'm not 100% sure they are compatible.

I have a mix of Fore and Summit brand PTFE hose and fittings. I couldn't tell you which hose came from where. No issues so far and it's been a couple years.

I'd say as long as the fitting is correct for the style of hose you have you're good.

That was what I suspected but couldn't find anyone saying they had done it. It's only a $22 gamble to try it out.
