This is a translucent braided PVC pressure hose description. The essential point is that it is a reinforced, food‑grade, multi‑purpose hose suitable for air, water, petrol, and general fluid transfer, with a pressure rating up to 230 PSI and compliance with AS2070 (Australian food‑contact standard).


🧵 What this hose actually is

A braided PVC hose is made from flexible PVC with a cross‑woven polyester braid embedded inside the wall. That braid is what gives it higher pressure resistance and prevents the hose from ballooning or kinking under load.

Key characteristics:

  • Translucent so you can visually check flow or contamination.

  • PVC construction for flexibility and chemical resistance.

  • Polyester braid reinforcement for strength.

  • Rated to 230 PSI, which is relatively high for PVC hose.

  • Meets AS2070, meaning it is safe for food‑contact applications in Australia.


🔧 Typical uses

This type of hose is commonly used in:

  • Air lines for compressors and pneumatic tools (light to medium duty).

  • Water transfer in workshops, agriculture, and general plumbing.

  • Petrol and fuel lines for low‑pressure transfer (not for high‑temperature automotive fuel injection).

  • Food and beverage handling, such as breweries, dairies, and food processing equipment.

  • Chemical transfer where PVC is compatible with the chemical.


📏 Why the AS2070 standard matters

AS2070 covers plastics for food contact, ensuring:

  • No harmful migration of chemicals into food.

  • Material purity and manufacturing quality.

  • Suitability for potable water and food‑grade environments.

This makes the hose appropriate for:

  • Food processing machinery

  • Beverage dispensing

  • Dairy equipment

  • Aquaculture


⚠️ Practical considerations

A few things to keep in mind when selecting or using this hose:

  • Temperature limits: PVC softens with heat; most braided PVC hoses are rated roughly 0°C to 60°C. Above that, pressure rating drops significantly.

  • Fuel compatibility: Works for petrol and diesel, but not ideal for ethanol‑heavy fuels or hot engine bays.

  • Pressure rating varies by size: Smaller diameters usually handle higher pressure.

  • UV exposure: PVC can degrade in sunlight over time unless UV‑stabilised.
