Specialist Hose

In industrial and commercial piping systems, the right hose can make the difference between smooth operations and unexpected downtime. Our Specialist Hose category brings together high-performance flexible solutions engineered to meet exacting requirements: chemical resistance, anti-static capabilities, high-visibility safety, and contract-site durability. Whether you’re transferring aggressive media, working on a construction site, or managing high-traffic wash-down zones, these hoses offer the technical specification, compliance and reliability you expect.

XLPE Chemical Hose

A heavy-duty chemical suction and delivery hose designed for transferring aggressive chemicals, solvents and corrosive fluids. Its smooth XLPE liner and reinforced construction provide excellent resistance and dependable performance in demanding industrial environments.

Key Features

  • Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) liner for superior chemical resistance
  • Reinforced with textile cord and steel wire helix
  • Anti-static wire to safely dissipate charge
  • Flexible yet durable construction suitable for industrial duty
  • Suitable for suction and delivery applications

Applications

  • Chemical processing and handling
  • Solvent transfer
  • Tanker loading and unloading
  • Industrial plant operations
  • Aggressive media handling

Contractors Hose

A robust, versatile hose designed specifically for the tough conditions of construction sites and general contracting environments. Built for durability, flexibility and reliability during frequent handling and heavy use.

Key Features

  • Heavy-duty outer cover for abrasion and impact resistance
  • Highly flexible for easy movement around site
  • UV-resistant and designed for continuous outdoor use
  • Strong reinforcement for reliable pressure performance

Applications

  • Construction and demolition sites
  • Site water supply and drainage
  • Industrial wash-down
  • General contractor-grade fluid transfer

Anti-Static Hose

A purpose-designed hose engineered to safely dissipate static electricity during the transfer of flammable liquids, powders or dusts. Ideal for hazardous areas where spark prevention is critical.

Key Features

  • Conductive or semi-conductive materials to dissipate static charge
  • Designed to minimise ignition risk in flammable environments
  • Reinforced construction for industrial suction and delivery
  • Smooth bore for efficient flow of liquids or powders
  • Suitable for grounding to meet safety protocols

Applications

  • Fuel and flammable liquid transfer
  • Powder and granule handling
  • Dust extraction systems
  • Hazardous area installations

Hi-Vis Hose

A high-visibility fluorescent hose designed for environments where hose location and safety awareness are essential. Durable, reinforced and easy to identify in low-light or high-traffic areas.

Key Features

  • Bright fluorescent outer cover for maximum visibility
  • Reinforced construction for industrial use
  • Excellent abrasion and UV resistance
  • Flexible and easy to handle

Applications

  • Public or pedestrian-accessible zones
  • Wash-down and cleaning areas
  • Events, hire industry and temporary installations
  • Areas requiring clear safety demarcation

How to Select the Right Hose For Your Requirement

  • Check media compatibility - what material is being transferred (chemical, water, air, powder)? Choose liner materials accordingly
  • Verify pressure and temperature ratings - know your operating pressure, burst margin, and ambient or fluid temperature range
  • Assess environmental demands - abrasion, UV exposure, site handling, chemical spray, static risk, or public area visibility
  • Understand compliance and safety features - for anti-static hoses, ensure proper grounding and standards compliance
  • End-fittings and assembly - specialist hoses often require matching fittings, clamps or crimping; consider full assembly if needed
  • Future proofing & maintenance - choose hoses that are resilient, easy to replace, and supported commercially to minimise downtime
