As the name shows, it's mainly for fire fighting. But it can also serves in agriculture, ship and mine. PVC lining fire hose absorbs polyester yarn and braid with a circular weaving machine. While the lining is quality PVC. It's flexible and light in weight. Thus you can carry and recycle it easily. Besides, the operation is simple.
🛡️ Key Features & Construction
⚙️
Advanced Construction
PVC lining tightly connects with the braid layer. Thus there will never be leakage.
🌡️
Temperature Resistance
It can work at 80℃ for long term. Besides, it remains flexible at -40℃.
🌀
Durability
Strong resistance to ozone and oxidation. Optional reinforcement can prolong the lifespan and improve oil/heat resistance.
💧 Ideal for Irrigation
PVC lining fire hose is also suitable for irrigation. When the hose connects to the well, PVC lining fire hose will be a great choice because the water is clean and the pressure demand is not that high. Thus PVC lining hose is enough to do such work. Besides, the price is lower.
⚠️ Usage Limitations
However, if you pump the water from a lake or river, PVC hose will not be suitable. Because there are sand and other impurities inside the water, it may corrode PVC hose. On such occasion, a PU lining fire hose will be great. Because it can bear acid, alkali and corrosion. Besides, it has much longer service life.
If works together with large spray machine, PVC lining fire hose is also not ideal. Because it can't bear high pressure. In fact, PVC lining fire hose is gradually replaced by PU hose.
Frequently Asked Questions
What materials are used in a PVC lining fire hose?
It is constructed with a polyester yarn braid using a circular weaving machine and lined with high-quality PVC.
What is the working temperature range for this hose?
The hose can operate at 80℃ for long-term use and remains flexible even at temperatures as low as -40℃.
Can I use PVC fire hoses for agricultural irrigation?
Yes, it is an excellent and cost-effective choice for irrigation when pumping clean water from wells where pressure demands are moderate.
Why is PVC not recommended for lake or river water?
Lake and river water often contains sand and impurities that can corrode the PVC lining. For these conditions, a PU lining hose is more suitable.
How does PVC lining compare to PU lining in terms of pressure?
PVC lining hoses cannot withstand high pressure as effectively as PU hoses, making PU the better choice for large spray machines and high-pressure applications.
Is the hose resistant to environmental factors?
Yes, it features strong resistance to ozone and oxidation, ensuring a reliable performance in various outdoor environments.
