Frequently Asked Questions
Is this hose suitable for direct contact with food and drinking water?
Yes, the hose is manufactured from food-grade PVC-P suitable for contact with many food products and potable water, making it appropriate for food and beverage processing, transfer and filling applications.
Can the hose be used for both suction and delivery applications?
Yes, the integrated anti-shock rigid spiral provides good resistance to vacuum and crushing, so the hose can be used for both suction and delivery duties within the stated temperature range and pressure limits of the specific size selected.
How do I choose the correct hose diameter for my system?
Measure the outside diameter of your existing pipework or fittings and select the hose inside diameter that provides a snug but not overly tight fit. Consider required flow rate and system pressure, and choose from the available inside and outside diameter options to match your connectors and performance needs.
