Built for the job
400 BAR rated, all day every day
This 3/8" thermoplastic hose is engineered to run at the pressures professional machines demand without the weight and stiffness of traditional rubber. It delivers consistent flow from the machine to the gun, so you get the output your washer is rated for.
Why this hose
Performance where it counts
Four reasons professionals choose thermoplastic over standard hoses.
-
400 BAR Rated
Handles the full output of professional pressure washers without pressure drop or failure.
-
Lightweight Flexibility
Thermoplastic construction is noticeably lighter than rubber, reducing fatigue on long details.
-
Abrasion Resistance
The reinforced outer layer resists damage from concrete, gravel and kerb edges.
-
3/8" BSP Fittings
Standard BSP threads connect securely to most professional guns, lances and machine inlets.
Thermoplastic vs standard hose
How it stacks up
Standard PVC and rubber hoses get the job done at lower pressures, but there are real differences worth knowing before you buy.

Move freely, work faster
Lightweight and kink-resistant around any vehicle
Thermoplastic construction keeps the hose light and manoeuvrable, even at full pressure. Available in 5, 10 and 15 metre lengths so you can match the hose to your workspace rather than fighting reach and bulk during a detail.

Questions
Frequently asked
What pressure rating does this hose support?
This hose is rated to 400 BAR working pressure. That covers the output of virtually all professional and prosumer pressure washers used in detailing.
What fitting type does this hose use?
It uses 3/8" BSP (British Standard Pipe) fittings at both ends. BSP is the standard thread used on most professional pressure washer guns, lances and machine inlets in South Africa. If your machine uses a different thread, you will need an appropriate adapter.
What lengths are available?
The hose is available in 5 metre, 10 metre and 15 metre lengths. The 5 metre is compact and easy to manage in tight bays, the 10 metre suits most detailing setups, and the 15 metre gives maximum reach for larger vehicles or open wash areas.
Why thermoplastic instead of rubber?
Thermoplastic hoses are significantly lighter than rubber and remain flexible across a wider temperature range. They are also more resistant to abrasion and UV degradation, which matters when a hose is dragged across concrete or left in the sun between jobs.
Will this hose kink when I route it around a vehicle?
The kink-resistant construction is designed to maintain its shape and keep flow consistent when bent around bumpers, wheels and body panels. It is not indestructible, but it handles the angles you encounter in normal detailing work without interrupting pressure.
Is this hose compatible with foam cannons and lances?
Yes, provided your foam cannon or lance uses a 3/8" BSP inlet. Most professional-grade foam cannons in the South African market are compatible. If yours uses a different connection, check the fitting size before purchasing.
How should I store the hose after use?
Drain and coil the hose loosely after each session. Avoid tight coils under tension and store it away from sharp edges. The thermoplastic construction handles temperature variation well, but storing it out of direct sunlight when not in use will extend its service life.
Can I use this hose for hot water pressure washers?
The source specifications confirm the pressure rating but do not state a maximum temperature rating. If you are running a hot water machine, check that the hose is compatible with your machine's outlet temperature before use.
