Description
This professional reinforced PVC-P hose is designed for demanding agricultural use, offering a reliable solution for water distribution, slurry handling, liquid fertilisers and a wide range of chemical transfer tasks. Manufactured from flexible, high-quality PVC-P with integral reinforcement, it combines strength and durability with excellent handling characteristics in the field, yard or glasshouse.
Engineered to perform in challenging environments, the hose delivers dependable service across a working temperature range of -25°C to +60°C. Multiple outside/inside diameters and coil lengths are available to suit different installations, from fixed pipework connections to mobile machinery and irrigation systems.
Product Features
- Reinforced PVC-P construction for enhanced pressure resistance and structural stability.
- Excellent chemical resistance suitable for many agricultural liquids and cleaning agents.
- Wide temperature range from -25°C to +60°C for year-round use in varied climates.
- Available outside/inside diameters (mm): 25.8, 31, 36.2, 38.2, 44.9, 47 and 58.8 to match common fittings and couplings.
- Choice of coil lengths (m): 20, 25, 30, 31.8, 38.1, 40 and 50.8 to minimise joints and reduce installation time.
- Flexible design for easy routing around obstacles and equipment with good kink resistance.
- Professional-grade hose suitable for frequent handling and repeated connection/disconnection.
Key Features and Benefits
- Durable reinforcement layer helps maintain hose integrity under working pressure, reducing the risk of bursts and downtime.
- Flexibility at low temperatures down to -25°C allows use and storage in unheated barns and outdoor locations.
- Chemical-resistant PVC-P minimises degradation when exposed to fertilisers, pesticides and detergents, extending service life.
- Range of diameters and coil lengths supports efficient system design, helping to optimise flow rates and reduce pressure loss.
- Smooth internal bore promotes consistent flow and makes the hose easier to flush and clean.
- Lightweight compared with many rubber alternatives, making manual handling, installation and repositioning quicker and safer.

Applications and Ideal Uses
This reinforced PVC-P hose is suitable for a wide variety of agricultural, horticultural and light industrial duties where a flexible, chemically resistant hose is required.
- Irrigation lines for open fields, polytunnels and glasshouses.
- Transfer of slurry, liquid fertiliser and nutrient solutions on farms.
- General water supply and drainage around yards, sheds and livestock areas.
- Chemical dosing and wash-down duties in agricultural and horticultural facilities.
- Light industrial liquid transfer where PVC-P chemical resistance is appropriate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this hose suitable for use with all agricultural chemicals?
The hose offers excellent chemical resistance for many common agricultural liquids, including water-based fertilisers and cleaning agents. However, compatibility depends on the exact chemical, concentration and temperature, so it is recommended to check the chemical resistance of PVC-P against your specific media before use.
Can the hose be used outdoors all year round?
Yes, the hose is designed to operate in temperatures from -25°C to +60°C, making it suitable for year-round outdoor use in typical agricultural environments. As with any hose, avoiding prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight and storing it under cover when not in use will help maximise its service life.
How do I choose the correct diameter and coil length for my application?
Select a hose diameter that matches your existing fittings and provides the required flow rate without excessive pressure loss. Larger diameters generally allow higher flow at lower pressure. For coil length, choose the size that reaches between connection points with minimal joins, allowing a little extra for routing around obstacles. The available options from 20 m up to 50.8 m provide flexibility for most installations.
