Irrigation Systems
Due to their durability and resistance to environmental conditions, PVC tubes are commonly used in agricultural and garden irrigation systems to distribute water efficiently.
Construction
PVC tubes are used as lightweight and durable options for constructing frames, supports, and railing in both temporary and permanent structures.
Automotive
PVC tubing is used in the automotive industry for wiring harnesses, air conditioning, and coolant systems owing to its resistance to oil, fuel, and other chemicals.
Industrial Applications
PVC tubes are used in manufacturing settings for pneumatic and hydraulic systems, chemical transfer, and protective sheathing for machinery.
Water and Wastewater Treatment
PVC pipes play a crucial role in the infrastructure of water purification and wastewater treatment plants, offering a corrosion-resistant solution for transporting water and waste materials.
Food and Beverage Industry
Food-grade PVC tubing is used to transfer liquids in brewing, winemaking, and food processing applications, where maintaining the purity of the content is crucial.
Overall Uses
PVC tubing’s wide range of applications is a testament to its versatility and adaptability across different industries and uses. It’s essential to select the correct type of PVC tube based on the specific requirements of the application, such as diameter, wall thickness, and whether it needs to be food-grade, UV-resistant, or have other particular properties.
We can also manufacture this range of tubes in a high specification, low taste material as specified by the UK brewing industry. Please get in touch with our sales office to find out more.

Technical details
These clear, flexible PVC pipes are a low-pressure hose solution with a maximum recommended working pressure of 30 PSI. For increased working pressures, consider the reinforced PVC hose instead.
The hose remains highly flexible without collapsing, even at low operating temperatures. The ideal temperature range falls between -20°C and 55°C. The hose can withstand occasional usage of up to 65°C.
The clear plastic (PVC) tube is economical and low-maintenance. Its excellent flow rates prevent sediment buildup, reducing the need for monitoring and replacements. As the tube is clear, it is easy to identify any blockages and replace that section with a new length attached to interconnects. The tube is also highly resistant to various chemicals, acids and alkalis.
