Amazing Benefits of Our Flexibore 150 Hose
-
Long Living Resilient Buildup
Our bore water rising main hose offers powerful resilience to iron, bacterial growth, corrosion, and microbiological damage. Its strong, resilient nature allows it to deliver impactful performance in every toughest scenario and also last longer.
-
Higher Flow Rates
Unlike PVC and poly hoses, which can easily reduce the flow rates in extreme conditions, our Flexibore 150 hose offers consistent and high flow rates through its flexible and powerful build-up.
-
Potable Water Approved
Our Flexibore hose becomes suitable for potable water after rigorously passing through multiple tests by the Australian Water Quality Centre, which ensures high-quality water transfer every time.
Applications of Our 150 Flexibore Hose in Australia
- Mine de-watering
- Domestic and municipal water supply
