Layflat Hose

Discover our robust and flexible range of layflat hoses and associated fittings - an ideal choice for applications such as dewatering, water-transfer, irrigation, site drainage, and industrial fluid handling. These hoses are designed to lie flat when not under pressure, saving space, simplifying storage, and promoting easy deployment. 

With our durable PVC layflat hoses and a comprehensive range of compatible couplings and adaptors, you’ll find solutions tailored for a variety of pressures, diameters and operational environments. At Pipestock we support both the hose supply and the fitting side so you can integrate your kit with confidence.

• Compact storage: when unpressurised the hose collapses flat, reducing volume and easing transport / storage
• Lightweight yet robust construction: makes handling easier on site, especially in long-run deployments
• Wide-ranging applications: from agriculture and construction to dewatering and industrial water transfer
• Excellent versatility: and when paired with the correct fittings, offers a reliable system for variable flows and pressures

Our core hose offering: a lightweight industrial layflat hose, designed for discharge and transfer of water or similar fluids. Ideal for site use where a flexible long-run hose is required, with compact storage benefits.

Typical features:

• PVC-based
• Collapsible when unpressurised
• Suitable for irrigation, water transfer, construction/dewatering tasks 

Benefits:

• Easy to deploy, roll-up and store
• Reduced kinking compared to rigid hoses
• Low profile when not in use

Considerations:

• Ensure you select the correct bore size and working pressure for your application
• Consult specification sheets for reinforcements

A male coupling end designed to match the layflat hose bore and provide a secure connection to pumps, outlets or other hose assemblies.

Use case:

• Connects the hose outlet to equipment or female couplings
• Complements hose deployment by ensuring secure, reliable join-up

Important to note:

• Thread/connection type must match system
• Wear and correct mating surfaces matter for durability and leak-free operation

The corresponding female coupling for the layflat hose system: used where the hose connects to a male fitting or outlet.

Use case:

• Frequently seen on pumps, outlets, or as part of an assembled hose length

Key benefit:

• Ensures the hose end is ready for quick and secure connection, reducing downtime on site.

A polypropylene (PP) coupling variant - offering a lightweight, corrosion-resistant option.

Use case:

• Suitable where chemical resistance, lower weight and ease of handling are important
• Ideal in less-aggressive fluids but where durability matters

Advantage:

• PP materials resist many types of corrosion
• Lighter than metal
• Easier for handling in long hose runs

A male adaptor made of polypropylene that allows the layflat hose to connect with other equipment or adapt to different thread/sizes.

Use case:

• When you need to adapt the hose to equipment, tanks, different diameter pipes or different coupling standards

Benefit:

• Adds versatility to your hose system, enabling flexible integration without needing full bespoke connection fittings

For maximum flexibility and rapid deployment in fluid transfer systems, it’s essential to pair your layflat hose assemblies with the correct coupling system. At Pipestock we also supply a wide range of cam-lock fittings.

By combining your layflat hose with cam-lock connectors you gain:

• Quick open/close connections for fast hose change-out or system modifications
• Secure, repeatable connections with minimal leak risk
• The ability to mix hose materials, diameters and fittings while maintaining operational compatibility
• Stainless-steel cam-lock fittings give you high durability and are ideal for industrial or corrosive environments

When specifying your system, simply select your layflat hose bore size, then match the coupling or adaptor to your connection standard (cam-lock style if preferred) and ensure the cam-lock size corresponds. This approach ensures you get a robust, flexible fluid transfer system that meets your site demands, minimises downtime and ensures ease of use for your team.
