What are the main Benefits of Diesel Hose?

Strong, Reinforced, and Hard Wearing

These fuel hoses are constructed with a 3-layer process which consists of a specially formulated blend of PVC and nitrile compound, which is then strengthened by 24 polyester braid reinforcement.

This unique blend of PVC is then heated and chemically bonded to create a robust and reliable hose solution.

As it is specifically designed to convey diesel fuel, this hose is resistant to oil and fuel. It will withstand prolonged contact with these substances.

This resistance is because it is a hard-wearing hose that offers excellent abrasion resistance, fire retardancy, flexibility and a long life span.

High Fire Resistance

As the primary use of these fuel hoses is the transport of flammable substances such as diesel and oil, these hoses have high fire and flammable resistance properties to suit this task.

Oil, Fuel Resistant

Fuel has corrosive elements in it. Consequently, any transportation hose that is designed to come into regular contact with these substances must be designed to resist these properties.

Consequently, the construction process for these fuel hoses uses a specially formulated blend of PVC and nitrile compound to make these hoses resistant to the corrosive effects of the oil and fuel being transported inside them.

Abrasion Resistant

Due to these hoses tending to be used a lot on garage forecourts and other high-use and trafficked areas, they must be abrasive resistant to prevent fuel from spilling everywhere.

As a result, these hoses have been specially strengthened and reinforced to help to prevent this type of issue.

Multiple Coloured Print, logos and Lengths

We understand that 1 size does not fit all requirements.

As a result, these hoses can be manufactured with coloured print, specific logos, and sizes depending on your requirements.

Have a Wide Temperature Range

These hoses need to operate outside and be available to the elements, so they have been constructed to be useable under many varying temperature ranges.

Consequently, these hoses can be used from -25°C to 45°C.

Cheaper Alternative to Rubber Hose

Due to their construction and reinforced properties, these fuel hoses make a great alternative to standard rubber hoses and come at a much-reduced cost to manufacture and supply.

Lots of Application Uses
