Description
This premium medium duty suction and delivery hose is a versatile reinforced PVC hose designed for reliable transfer of water, slurry, light chemicals and powders in demanding industrial and agricultural environments. Combining flexibility with robust construction, it provides dependable performance where both suction and discharge duties are required.
Manufactured from heavy duty PVC with excellent chemical and abrasion resistance, this hose is ideal for use with pumps, tankers, process equipment and mobile plant. A broad range of diameters and coil lengths allows you to specify the right hose for washdown lines, slurry handling, irrigation, powder transfer and many other fluid handling applications.
Product Features
- Available in a wide range of outside/inside diameters, including 33.8 mm, 40.8 mm, 47 mm, 60.9 mm and 73.9 mm (plus additional sizes to suit varied flow rates).
- Supplied in generous coil lengths such as 25.4 m, 32 m, 38 m, 51.6 m and 63.5 m, with further options for different run lengths and installation layouts.
- Heavy duty PVC wall with embedded reinforcement to withstand vacuum conditions and medium duty working pressures.
- Engineered for combined suction and delivery duties, suitable for both negative and positive pressure applications.
- Resistant to many common chemicals, fertilisers and cleaning agents, making it suitable for water, slurry and light chemical transfer.
- Smooth bore for efficient flow and reduced pressure loss, with a robust outer wall to resist abrasion and impact.
- Flexible construction for easy handling, routing around equipment and tight installation spaces.
Key Features and Benefits
- Medium duty pressure and vacuum performance ensures reliable operation in both suction and discharge applications, reducing the risk of collapse or kinking under load.
- Chemical-resistant PVC formulation extends service life when used with water treatment chemicals, light acids, alkalis and agricultural products.
- Flexible yet durable design simplifies installation, minimises the need for additional fittings and cuts downtime during hose changeovers.
- Range of diameters and coil lengths helps you optimise system design, balancing flow rate, pressure drop and hose routing requirements.
- Smooth internal bore reduces turbulence and wear, supporting consistent flow and easier cleaning or flushing.
- Suitable for water, slurry and powder transfer, allowing one hose type to cover multiple duties across a site.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this hose be used for both suction and delivery duties?
Yes, the hose is specifically designed for combined suction and delivery use, with a reinforced PVC wall that helps resist collapse under vacuum and provides adequate strength for medium duty discharge pressures.
Is this hose suitable for use with all chemicals?
The hose offers good resistance to many common industrial and agricultural chemicals, including some acids, alkalis and cleaning agents, but it is not universally chemically resistant. Always check chemical compatibility data for your specific media and operating conditions before use.
Can I cut the hose to shorter lengths on site?
Yes, coils can typically be cut to shorter lengths using appropriate cutting tools, provided the cut ends are clean and square. Ensure that any cut length is fitted with suitable hose tails and clamps to maintain a secure connection in service.
