Description
All Purpose Water Hose
A lightweight braided PVC hose, reinforced with high tensile polyester fibres. APWH is tough, flexible and extremely durable under normal operating conditions. This hose is yellow with a smooth yellow outer, pleasant to the eye, and easy to work with. It is constructed with two layers of smooth PVC bonded together, encapsulating high tensile polyester fibres. These hoses are suitable for use in the temperature range between -10 degrees centigrade to +55 degrees centigrade.
Common applications are such as, sports grounds, agricultural and horticultural applications.
Special Features of the All Purpose Water Hose
- Outstanding low temperature characteristics combined with flexibility
- Outstanding resistance to the effects of weather
- Minimum frictional loss is achieved by the smooth bore
- Excellent chemical resistance

(i) Maximum working pressure is based on a factor of safety of 3:1 on short term burst pressure at 20°C. If the temperature increases, please give us a call and we will be happy to help
(ii) Lengths detailed above are as standard, however variations may be available subject to minimum order quantities. Weights are approximate dependent upon working tolerance and density of materials.(iii) Bending diameter information is intended as a guide to the minimum bend radius at 20°C ambient temperature without restricting the bore. It does not mean that the hose cannot be bent below the given dimensions but restrictions are likely to occur.
