An armoured hose, also known as a flexible hose, is a particularly flexible connection hose with a wide range of uses, including in the heating and sanitary sector. This armoured hose from Italian production has an inner core made of flexible plastic (EPDM), which is covered with a sturdy stainless steel braid.
This makes it very pressure-resistant and kink-proof, so that the connection hose is also ideal for corners that are difficult to access. The stainless steel braiding also makes the hose corrosion-resistant. This means it can also be used outdoors, for example to connect a garden or water pump. The inner EPDM hose makes it food-safe. This is why the hose is also certified by the German Technical and Scientific Association for Gas and Water (DVGW).
The connections of the flexible hose are made of high-quality brass. On one side, the connection has a G1/2″ external thread (26.44 mm). The second connection is fitted with a G3/8″ union nut (14.95 mm). The flex hose has a length of 300 mm and an inner diameter of 8 mm (DN8). You can find other connection hoses with other threaded connections, lengths and nominal diameters in our online shop. The XPOtool armoured hose is a real all-rounder, whether for fitting taps in the bathroom and kitchen, as a supply line for washing machines and dishwashers or for installing a domestic waterworks.
