Industrial Slurry & Discharge Hose

Manufacturing facilities often require the transfer of viscous fluids, slurries, or high-abrasion materials. Our industrial slurry hose is crafted precisely for those requirements. With abrasion-resistant lining, vacuum resistance, and flexibility for complex layouts, it ensures material handling systems stay up and running.

In environments where downtime translates directly to cost, this hose brings tangible benefits:

  • High abrasion/erosion resistance: ideal when moving solids, grits, or particles.
  • Vacuum and suction capability: handles raw material intake or by-product removal reliably. 
  • Flexible deployment: adapts to dynamic manufacturing layouts, reducing installation complexity.

For manufacturing lines that deal with tough and challenging materials or need solid discharge systems, this hose delivers the credibility and performance you require.

Lay flat hose manufacturing for Compact & Agile Applications

When space is at a premium or hose deployment/retrieval must be fast and efficient, our lay flat hose offers a clear solution. Designed for portability and quick handling, it supports manufacturing operations where fluid transfer lines must be repositioned or stored compactly.

Manufacturers appreciate the following benefits:

  • Flat-profile storage: frees up floor space when the hose is not in use.
  • Quick deployment/retrieval: shortens lead time when operations shift or mobile units are used
  • Chemical resistance and pressure capability: supports diverse fluid systems in manufacturing.

Whether you’re transferring cooling fluids, rinse water, or other utilities where flexibility and space-efficiency are the main focus, our lay flat hose integrates smoothly into modern manufacturing infrastructure.
