Low-Pressure Hoses

Heavy-wall hose with a helical wire or rigid plastic helix embedded in the wall to resist collapse under vacuum on the suction side and handle flow on the discharge side. Used for mud, water, slurry, and bulk fluid transfer at pumps and tanks.

Collapsible, circular-woven or extruded hose that flattens when empty for compact storage and rapid deployment of long runs. Common for water supply, frac-water transfer, and temporary discharge lines.

Hose with a hydrocarbon-resistant tube (typically nitrile) for loading, unloading, and transferring crude, diesel, gasoline, and other petroleum products at docks, tanks, and trucks.

Reinforced, collapse-resistant hose rated for negative pressure, used on vacuum trucks and dredging equipment to lift fluids, sludge, and solids-laden slurries.

Buoyant, abrasion- and weather-resistant hose used to transfer product between tankers, buoys, and single-point moorings, typically built and tested to OCIMF GMPHOM 2009 requirements.

Flexible hose for low-pressure hydraulic return, case-drain, and suction lines on rigs and equipment, where flow volume rather than burst pressure governs the design.

High-temperature-rated hose, often steam- or jacket-traced, for handling hot bitumen, asphalt, and other viscous heated products without degradation of the tube.

General-purpose hose for water supply, dust suppression, and bulk dry or liquid material transfer, selected for abrasion resistance and flexibility over pressure rating.
