PVC Reinforced Hose is a strong, flexible, and transparent tubing designed for fluid and air transfer in industrial, agricultural, and commercial environments. Constructed with a smooth bore soft PVC inner tube, reinforced with triple polyester yarn, and encased in a PVC outer layer, the hose provides both visibility and durability. Built to ISO 5774:2016 Type A standards, the hose ensures consistent performance across water, air, light chemical, fuel, and oil applications. With an operating temperature range from -10°C to +65°C and short-term tolerance up to +70°C, PVC polyester reinforced hose is a dependable choice for medium-pressure use in workshops, irrigation systems, and fluid handling operations.

Key Features:

  • Material: Soft Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) with polyester reinforcement.

  • Reinforcement: Triple polyester yarn for added strength and pressure stability.

  • Fuel & Oil Resistance: Suitable for contact with petroleum-based products, light oils, and fuels.

  • Operating Temperature: -10°C to +65°C (peak +70°C).

  • Working Pressure: 4 bar to 10 bar depending on size.

  • Burst Pressure: 12 bar to 30 bar (3:1 safety factor).

  • Wall Thickness: 2 mm to 3.5 mm depending on size.

  • Bending Radius: 54 mm to 360 mm depending on diameter.

  • Standard: ISO 5774:2016 Type A compliant.

The PVC construction enables easy inspection of liquid or air flow, making it ideal where visibility of the medium is required. Its smooth bore promotes efficient transfer while reducing pressure loss, and the textile reinforcement prevents kinking and collapse under load. The material formulation provides additional resistance to light oils and fuels, extending versatility for fluid handling tasks. Lightweight yet robust, PVC reinforced  hose is easy to handle, cut, and install in varied environments. With burst pressures three times higher than the working rating, it ensures safe and reliable use in medium-duty applications.

Common applications include pneumatic air lines, workshop tools, irrigation systems, chemical transfer, gardening, aquatics, fuel and oil transfer, water supply, and general industrial fluid handling. Widely adopted across manufacturing, agriculture, and maintenance industries, PVC polyester reinforced hose offers an economical and versatile solution for transparent, durable, and fuel-resistant tubing needs.

How to measure ID

ID OD wall reinforcement plies ID = bore · OD = ID + (2 × wall)
1
Measure the pipe, not the old hose
Heat and age make a used hose swell and go out of round. Take your reading across the metal outlet the hose slides onto — that measurement is your ID.
2
Use vernier calipers
Set the outer jaws across the widest point of the pipe. A tape measure round a curve reads low by a millimetre or two — enough to buy the wrong size.
3
Take three readings, keep the largest
Rotate 60° between each. If they disagree the pipe is oval; size to the biggest figure so the hose still seals.
4
Round to the nearest listed bore
Never go up: a bore wider than the fitting will not grip, whatever the hose is made of. If you land between listed sizes take the smaller bore, and secure it with a clip.
Order by ID, always. Every hose on this site is listed by internal diameter. OD is given for clearance only — it changes with wall thickness and ply count, so it is never the ordering size. On reducers, quote both ends, largest first.

The metre

What is it used for?

General-purpose fluid and air transfer in industrial, agricultural and commercial environments.

What sizes and lengths do you supply?

Available in internal diameters from 5mm to 51mm, lengths from 1 Metre to 50 Metres (Full Coil), in clear, black, blue and red. Order by internal diameter to match the outside diameter of the barb or spigot it pushes onto. Full coils work out considerably better value per metre than cut lengths.

What pressure and temperature is it rated for?

Working pressure runs from 10 bar on the smallest bore down to 4 bar on the largest, with burst pressure from 30 bar down to 12 bar across the 5mm to 51mm range. The operating range is -10C to +65C, built to BS6066. PVC also stiffens noticeably in cold weather, so uncoil it gently on a frosty morning rather than pulling it straight.

Can I use it on the suction side of a pump?

No. The braid gives pressure strength but no collapse resistance, so any real negative pressure draws it shut. For suction duty you need a hose with a steel helix - our PVC wire reinforced hose is made for exactly that.

Is it safe for drinking water or food use?

No - this is a general-purpose industrial hose and is not certified for potable water or food contact. If you need a certified food-grade or potable hose, tell us the application and we will point you at an appropriately certified product.

How do I connect it?

Push it fully onto the barb or spigot - warming the end in hot water makes larger sizes far easier - and secure with a stainless worm drive clip. On higher-pressure runs, two clips at right angles give a better grip. Cut the hose square so it seats evenly.
