1. The inner core-This is the inner core in which the water actually flows.

2. Wire wrap-This is the wire wrapper that surrounds the inner core and protects it from damage. This wrap is in a braided configuration which allows the hose to bend freely while having ample protection. Most Hoses under 4000 psi ratings have single wire wraps and are referred to as single wire or R1 hoses. Hoses designed for psi ratings of 4000 or above and hoses designed for hot water use have two wire braids and are referred to as 2-wire or R2 hoses.

3. Outer Cover- The best covers are rubber, thermoplastic covered hoses are widely used on pressure washers that are designed to be sold at a cheap price. If quality is important to you I would be skeptical of machines that are sold with a thermoplastic hose as standard.
