Description
This premium reinforced flexible PVC hose is a high‑performance braided tube designed for reliable fluid transfer in a wide range of industrial, commercial and domestic environments. Manufactured from clear food-grade PVC with an integrated polyester braid, it offers an excellent balance of flexibility, pressure resistance and durability.
Ideal for use as a food and drink supply line, general water hose, light chemical transfer tube or air line, it is available in multiple internal and external diameters and coil lengths to suit both compact installations and extended runs. The smooth bore and transparent wall make it particularly suited to applications where visual flow monitoring and hygiene are important.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this reinforced PVC hose suitable for use with drinking water and food products?
Yes, the hose is manufactured from food-contact suitable PVC and is designed for use with potable water and many food-related liquids, provided it is installed, cleaned and maintained correctly. Always ensure that the hose is used within the recommended temperature and pressure limits for hygienic applications.
Can this hose be used with all types of chemicals?
No, not all chemicals are compatible with PVC. The hose is suitable for many light-duty chemicals and cleaning agents, but aggressive solvents, strong acids or alkalis may not be appropriate. Always check the chemical compatibility of PVC with your specific medium and operating temperature before use.
How do I choose the correct diameter and coil length for my installation?
Select the internal diameter to match your fittings and desired flow rate, ensuring that it aligns with the connection size of your equipment. Then choose a coil length that covers the full run with a small allowance for routing, avoiding excessive slack. Available diameters include options such as 8 mm, 10 mm, 11.5 mm, 13.5 mm and 15.5 mm, and standard coils include 3 m, 4 m, 5 m, 6 m and 6.3 m, with other sizes available across the range.
