ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A wire reinforced hose and method of making same are provided herein. The hose is defined of a helically wound strip which has at least one integral preformed convolution therein and a wire disposed in the con- volution with the helical winding being such that the convolution with the wire disposed therewithin extends in a helical path along the length of the hose and the hose has a tubular inside surface with the helical wire concealed therewithin when viewing such tubular inside surface. The preformed convolution has a roughly U-shaped cross-sectional configuration defined by a bight and a pair of legs extending in parallel relation from opposite ends of the bight, the legs having inside surfaces which define corresponding surfaces of the groove and the inside surfaces engage the wire and hold same in a precise helical path. The wire-reinforce hose so provided has improved quality since the wire is wound with optimum precision. There is little likelihood of separation and relative movement between the strip and the wire to result in premature weakening and failure of the hose. Moreover, the inside surface of the hose is relatively smooth.
