76mm Yellow Tail Abrasive Suction Hose

The 76 mm Yellow Tail is the size fitted to most trash pumps, and PSHYT076 is the one contractors buy when a standard suction hose has worn through on slurry work. Outside diameter is 93.4 mm and the minimum bend radius is 400 mm. It shares the 0.4 MPa (58 psi) working pressure of the 63 mm size and the same 600 mm Hg vacuum rating, so the choice between them is the pump inlet, not the duty. Smooth high nitrile bore, raised yellow rigid PVC helix.

Key features

• 76 mm inside diameter, 93.4 mm outside diameter
• High nitrile content PVC, smooth bore
• Raised rigid yellow PVC helix for vacuum resistance and wear
• Working pressure 0.4 MPa (58 psi) at 20°C
• Vacuum rating 600 mm Hg
• Minimum bend radius 400 mm
• Operating temperature -5°C to +60°C
• Cut 2 m to 15 m, or a 20 m coil

Applications

• Trash pumps handling slurry and sludge
• Site dewatering where the water carries solids
• Waste truck and septic tanker suction
• Quarry and wash plant lines
• Industrial sump and pit emptying

Compatibility and fitting

• Fit 76 mm camlocks over the helix with a heavy clamp band sized to 93.4 mm
• Keep the suction run as short as the site allows; length costs the pump more than bore does
• The 100 mm size for high volume work is on Yellow Tail abrasive suction hose

Can it be used as a discharge hose as well?

Yes, within the 58 psi working pressure. It is built as a suction and discharge hose, so the same length can run either side of the pump; what it should not do is exceed that pressure on a high head discharge.
