PVC Food Suction Hose Red/Clear
About PVC Food Suction Hose Red/Clear
Red food suction hose is the colour-coded choice for wineries, breweries, juice plants and dairies that run more than one product through the same pump room. The clear PVC wall shows product and air moving through the line, the red helix keeps the hose round under vacuum, and the smooth bore cleans out with a rinse. Hose Suppliers Australia stocks it in Brisbane from 38 mm to 76 mm.
Types of red/clear food suction hose we stock
- 38 mm: cellar pumps, small transfer pumps and dairy lines, in 2 m to 15 m cut lengths or a 20 m coil.
- 50 mm and 63 mm: the common sizes for tank-to-tank transfer and brewery lines, in the same length options.
- 76 mm: bulk suction and delivery for tanker loading and unloading.
For smaller bores from 25 mm see black/clear PVC food suction hose; for a tougher hose on tankers and plant floors see rubber food suction hose.
Choosing the right food suction hose
- Size: match the pump inlet and keep the suction run short; a larger bore means the pump pulls less vacuum for the same flow.
- Material: PVC is light, clear and easy to handle; choose rubber where the hose is dragged, driven over or used with hot product.
- Temperature: this PVC hose is for cold and ambient product. Ask us before using it on hot CIP or wash cycles.
- Fittings: stainless camlocks or hose tails with all-stainless hose clamps keep rust out of the line.
