What are 5 Benefits of Fluted Water Hoses?


What are Fluted Water Hoses used for?
Fluted water hoses are tough hoses designed and developed for conveying water in many applications – due to the benefits listed below – such as:
- Garden
- Agricultural sites, and for use in fields
- Construction and building sites
- Other similar applications
What lengths are these hoses typically available in?
This type of water hose is typically available in lengths of 40m and 100m; however, we can manufacture custom orders should you require a different size.
How is this type of hose typically manufactured?
These heavy-duty water hoses are manufactured from two layers of PVC nitrile compound that are heat and chemically bonded with a third layer of rugged polyester construction.
This construction process gives this hose an incredibly durable composition with impressive working pressures. It continues working well in high and low temperatures.
What are the Benefits of Fluted Water hose?
Easy to handle and work with
Flexibility makes this hose easy to handle on-site and quickly relocate to new areas.
Flexible and kink resistant
Even though this hose is designed for more heavy-duty water delivery applications, due to its construction, it features exterior longitudinal fluting, which prevents kinking and assists with abrasion.
Durability, reliability and strength
Its 2 layers of PVC nitrile compound during manufacturing make this hose very durable with excellent strength and reliability.
Abrasion, weather, and UV resistant
As this hose is manufactured to be used in the most demanding agricultural applications, it has been designed to be resistant to abrasion, a wide range of chemicals, weather, and UV resistance to give you the reliability and longevity you need.
Suitable for outdoor usage
This type of hose is designed for heavy use in outdoor areas, fields, and construction sites.
REACH, RoHS and BSI ISO 9001 compliant

As a result, this hose is both: Cadmium and Silicone free and is resistant to a wide range of chemicals.
Consequently, this hose is safe for your applications.
What are the Working Temperatures of this hose?
These working pressures are based on the short-term burst pressures calculated at 20°C. However, the maximum recommended working temperature is 45°C.
Working pressures will be affected at temperatures above 20°C and the bend radius, and flexibility will be affected below -25°C
