Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can this hose be used for drinking water?

This hose is intended for industrial, agricultural, and drainage use and is not rated for potable water transport.

What is the maximum temperature this hose can handle?

It is rated for operation up to +60°C.

Does the hose come with fittings attached?

The hose is supplied as a 10-metre length of tubing; you will need to purchase and attach appropriate end fittings separately.

Can I connect two of these hoses together?

Yes, you can connect multiple hoses using appropriate 3-inch hose connectors or camlock adapters, provided the connection is secure.

Is the hose UV resistant?

While the material is durable, it is recommended to store it out of direct sunlight when not in use to extend its lifespan.

Troubleshooting

Pump fails to draw water

Check all connection points for air leaks; suction hoses must be completely airtight to maintain prime.

Hose appears flattened during suction

Verify that there are no kinks in the line and ensure the pump capacity does not exceed the structural rating of the hose.

Leaking at connection points

Tighten clamps or replace the gasket/seal on the camlock fitting to ensure a proper fit.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Resistant to kinking and structural collapse under vacuum
  • Lightweight construction facilitates easy handling and storage
  • Versatile application range for water, chemicals, and agricultural use
  • Durable material suitable for varied environmental temperatures

Cons

  • Fixed 10-metre length may be insufficient for long-run pumping without extensions
  • Requires proper camlock or hose tail fittings to ensure leak-free connections
  • Not intended for high-pressure industrial pumping systems exceeding standard drain pump ratings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the hose, attach it to your pump outlet or intake using appropriately sized hose tails and heavy-duty jubilee clips or camlock couplings. Always ensure the connection is airtight for suction tasks to prevent the pump from losing its prime. After use, flush the interior with clean water, especially if it has been used with chemicals or fertilisers. Allow the hose to drain fully and coil it loosely for storage in a dry, shaded area to prevent UV degradation and material hardening.
