Description
This premium thermoplastic rubber (TPV) hose with steel spiral reinforcement is designed for demanding chemical transfer, extraction and high-temperature ducting duties. Combining the flexibility of rubber with the durability of engineered thermoplastics, it offers a robust yet manoeuvrable solution for industrial environments.
Engineered for safe and reliable handling of fumes, vapours, dust and a wide range of chemical media, this hose is suitable for process plants, laboratories, workshops and production lines. The integrated steel spiral provides excellent crush resistance and stability, making it ideal for fixed installations as well as mobile extraction and transfer systems.
Product Features
- Constructed from high-quality thermoplastic rubber (TPV) for enhanced chemical and temperature resistance.
- Incorporates a robust embedded steel spiral for excellent vacuum and crush resistance while maintaining flexibility.
- Available in multiple outside/inside diameters including 38.8 mm, 40.8 mm, 45.8 mm, 51.8 mm, 60.8 mm and many additional size options to suit different pipework and plant connections.
- Supplied in a choice of coil lengths such as 38 m, 40 m, 45 m, 51 m, 60 m and numerous other standard lengths for efficient installation and minimal wastage.
- Offered with a range of wall thickness and strength options, including 20, 15 and 10 (selected variants), to balance flexibility and durability for specific applications.
- Smooth internal bore for improved flow characteristics and easier cleaning compared with traditional fabric-reinforced ducting.
- Resistant to many industrial oils, fumes and chemicals typically encountered in process, automotive and engineering environments.
Key Features and Benefits
- High chemical resistance helps protect equipment and maintain safe working conditions when transferring aggressive or contaminated media.
- Temperature-resistant TPV construction supports use in high-temperature extraction and ducting systems, reducing the risk of hose degradation and downtime.
- Steel spiral reinforcement improves crush and vacuum resistance, so the hose maintains its shape and flow even under mechanical stress or partial compression.
- Wide range of diameters and coil lengths allows closer matching to system requirements, minimising joints, pressure losses and installation time.
- Flexible yet durable design makes the hose easy to route around machinery and tight spaces while still offering long service life in industrial conditions.
- Low-maintenance, wipe-clean surface and smooth interior help reduce build-up of residues, supporting cleaner processes and easier inspection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this TPV hose suitable for all chemicals and solvents?
The hose offers excellent resistance to many common industrial chemicals, fumes and oils, but it is not universally compatible with every substance. Always check the chemical resistance of TPV against the specific media, concentration and operating temperature, and consult technical data or compatibility charts before use.
Can the hose be used for both suction and discharge applications?
Yes, the integrated steel spiral reinforcement provides very good vacuum and crush resistance, making the hose suitable for many suction and discharge duties, provided that the operating pressure and temperature remain within the recommended limits for the chosen diameter and wall/strength option.
How do I choose the correct diameter and coil length for my installation?
Select a diameter that matches or slightly exceeds the connection size of your equipment to minimise pressure loss and ensure secure coupling. Measure the full route of the hose, allowing for bends and routing around obstacles, then choose the nearest standard coil length (such as 38 m, 40 m, 45 m, 51 m or 60 m) that provides adequate length with a small allowance for trimming and positioning.
