Suction Hose
8 Inch Suction Hose
The 8 inch suction hose is a DN200 rigid-helix PVC hose sized for the most common heavy-duty pump on a construction or farm site.
Product Overview
What This Hose Is Built To Do
The 8 inch suction hose is a DN200 rigid-helix PVC hose sized for the most common heavy-duty pump on a construction or farm site. It is supplied in lengths up to 30 m (100 ft), carries a smooth bore for unrestricted flow and works from -10°C to 70°C. At DN200 it is the point where one operator can still handle the hose while moving serious volume.
Key Benefits
- DN200 is light enough for one operator to drag and reposition on site
- Up to 30 m in a single length removes couplings from the suction run
- Smooth bore keeps the pump curve close to its rated duty point
- Available in orange, red or green for fleet identification

- Layflat hose held at 1.5 times working pressure for 2 hours before shipment
- Trace number recorded for production date, employees and raw material sources
Customization Options
- Colour made to order alongside the standard range
- OEM and ODM printing of your brand, with exclusive protection of your designs
- Length cut to the run you specify rather than a fixed stock length
- Couplings fitted before shipment and pressure tested as one assembly
Use Guide
- Match the hose bore to the pump inlet rather than reducing at the pump
- Use full-bore fittings so the helix does not sit proud inside the joint
- Keep the run clear of sharp spoil edges or lay a board under the hose
- Check the bore for embedded grit after abrasive duty
- Coil rather than fold for storage and transport
Comparison
How It Compares With Our Other Products
| 10 Inch Suction Hose | Same construction and temperature range with a smaller DN200 bore, so it is lighter to handle but moves less volume per hour |
|---|---|
| Fire Suction Hose | The fire suction hose is supplied in short 2 m and 4 m lengths for appliance use, where this one is supplied in long site lengths |
