10mm (3/8") Clear Multi Purpose Hose

10 mm (3/8") clear braided PVC hose (part PHCMP10) is one of the most ordered bores in the range, used for workshop air, beverage lines and general transfer where the clear wall makes the flow visible. The clear PVC wall carries a blue tint and a red tracer, with high tenacity polyester yarn braid taking the pressure and a UV stabilised outer layer taking the sun.

• Red tracer high tenacity polyester yarn braid
• Meets AS/NZS 2554, and AS/NZS 2070 for plastics in food contact

• Pump discharge and priming
• General water and mild chemical transfer

Compatibility and fitting

• Fits a 10 mm hose tail; secure with a hose clamp, two per end under pressure
• Brass and stainless tails to suit are in the brass fittings range
• For permanent petrol or oil lines use petrol and oil delivery hose
• For suction duty use a helix reinforced hose; braid holds pressure, not vacuum

Can I use it for food and drink?

Yes. It conforms to AS/NZS 2070 for plastics in food contact, which is why it turns up on beverage and food lines. It is not, however, suitable as a permanent fuel line.

Bores from 6 mm to 50 mm are in the clear braided PVC hose range.
