Technical Details
We specifically designed this reinforced three-ply PVC hose to withstand high working pressures. Our products undergo a continuous pressure testing program to ensure consistent quality and high standards.
Working pressures are based on the short-term burst pressure at 20°C using a 4:1 safety factor. Any increases in temperature above 20°C will affect the short-term burst pressure quoted.
The flexible nature of this product allows for an excellent flow rate, which reduces blockages and prevents sediment buildup, making this a low-maintenance hose solution.
