Notes
NEWFLEX reinforced suction hose is widely used throughout the industry in both positive and negative pressure applications. Its advanced design allows the use of light-weight, corrosion-resistant PVC to replace bulkier and heavier ply-wrapped rubber hose.
NEWFLEX series ‘FH’ and ‘FHS’ are clear, allowing the user to have full visual flow of material. The Food Grade lines are made from FDA-approved ingredients suitable for food and beverage handling. The smooth interior is easily sterilized and cleaned. Both types have a vacuum rating of 28 in./Hg.
NEWFLEX series ‘VFH’ is produced from a clear FDA liner with an industrial grade white helix, which is not exposed to the hose I.D. It can handle light-duty pressure discharge, gravity feed, and moderate vacuum applications.

This series has no positive pressure ratings. Increasing pressure will cause the hose to elongate and expand. If pressure is a concern, in-plant testing is advised. Standard coil length is 100 ft. Add length suffix to part number when ordering. Example: 100 ft. of 3/8″ I.D. x .570″ O.D. hose is part number 124 0176-100. Cut coils are available; charges apply — call for details.
