Leaky waterhose

I keep having a waterleak on the hose coming into the trailer. I have put a new washer, used teflon tape and have tightened it up as much as I can an it still leaks! Any suggestions.

Be sure the city water runs through the water pressure regulator BEFORE it goes through the hose. High city water pressure will make the gaskets leak.

Teflon tape won't do any good because the rubber gasket is the sealing area. Time for a new hose.

Probably need to cut off the end and replace it with a new one (or just get a new hose). For whatever reason these RV hoses sure do seem to leak often and after a short amount of time. It seems like every time I go out I've having to change one end or the other.
