White braided 3/8" water line hose source?

I try to stay away from barbed fittings if the liquid is under pressure.

3/8" ? Mine is all 1/2" in both trailers. Make sure you get the correct stuff.

3/8" ID and 1/2" OD -(.565 OD to be technically accurate)

The clear stuff is Chinese made and tends to leak using the barbed fittings.

A lot of RV dealers and RV parts stores carry it.

Unless the details are specified, hoses are listed by OD. Hence, this is 1/2 hose.

On the pack in places like Home Depot it will indicate both ID and OD.

Just because it is white - it is not making it food-grade, so be careful buying at hardware place.
Years ago I bought "somewhere" kink-free white hose that is food grade.
It is perfect for RV as I don't have to worry about long hose coiled for short use.
The construction has small fins inside that will let the water flow even when kinked.
Can't find such animal anymore. Anybody have seen it lately?

Negative on that. Camping World nor Tacoma RV (both local RV supply houses) nor ACE, HD, Lowes, Marine West, Grainger's, McMasters nor that grand daddy of hose supply, Williams carry that hose.
None carry the Accuflex 136

That surprises me, a couple of RV dealers in my area carry it.
