Description
This premium reinforced TPU hose is engineered specifically for demanding food processing environments where hygiene, flexibility and durability are essential. Manufactured from high-grade thermoplastic polyurethane, it combines excellent mechanical strength with a smooth internal bore for efficient product transfer and easy cleaning.
Designed to perform reliably between -40°C and +90°C, this antistatic, microbe-resistant hose is ideal for conveying foodstuffs, liquids and ingredients in processing plants, bottling lines and hygienic production areas. Multiple diameter and coil length options allow you to match the hose precisely to your equipment layout and flow requirements.
Product Features
- Reinforced TPU construction with an approximate 0.9 mm wall thickness for excellent flexibility and crush resistance.
- Wide range of outside/inside diameters, including 39.8 mm, 41.8 mm, 46.8 mm, 52.8 mm and 61.8 mm, plus additional sizes to suit various coupling systems.
- Multiple coil lengths available, including 38 m, 40 m, 45 m, 51 m and 60 m, with further length options for bespoke installations.
- Antistatic properties to help dissipate static build-up when conveying dry foodstuffs or powders.
- Microbe-resistant material formulation to support strict hygiene and contamination control in food processing areas.
- Broad operating temperature range from -40°C to +90°C, suitable for chilled environments, ambient lines and many heated processes.
- Good transparency to aid visual flow inspection and monitoring of product transfer.
Key Features and Benefits
- Maintains flexibility at low temperatures, making it easier to route the hose around machinery and within confined plant layouts.
- Reinforced wall and robust TPU material provide long service life, reducing downtime and replacement costs.
- Microbe-resistant properties support routine cleaning regimes and help maintain hygienic product contact surfaces.
- Antistatic performance enhances safety when handling dry or powdered media by reducing the risk of static discharge.
- Smooth internal bore promotes efficient flow and minimises product retention, supporting both process efficiency and cleanability.
- Broad size and coil length selection allows close matching to existing fittings, minimising the need for adaptors or major modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this hose suitable for direct contact with food products?
The hose is designed for use in food processing environments and is made from food-processing-grade TPU. Always confirm compatibility with your specific products and any applicable regulations or site standards before use.
Can the hose be used in low-temperature or chilled areas?
Yes, the hose maintains flexibility down to approximately -40°C, making it suitable for chilled stores, freezer areas and low-temperature processing lines.
How do I choose the correct diameter and coil length for my installation?
Select a diameter that matches your existing couplings or pipework, allowing for the required flow rate, and then choose the nearest standard coil length that covers the run with a small allowance for routing. If in doubt, measure your existing installation and consult technical data such as bend radius and working pressure to ensure a suitable match.
