Product Overview
PVC Layflat Hose is a lightweight, flexible, and easy-to-store hose widely used in agricultural irrigation, drainage, and temporary water supply at construction sites. Made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), this hose offers excellent flexibility and abrasion resistance, making it suitable for temporary or seasonal water transfer needs.
Compared to traditional rubber hoses or rigid PVC pipes, PVC Layflat Hose can be folded flat when not in use, saving storage space and facilitating transportation. Its flat design makes it easy to lay out, especially in situations requiring frequent movement or temporary installation.
This Anti-UV 3 Inch Layflat Water Hose With Coupling is suitable for transferring clean or slightly turbid water but is not recommended for high-temperature liquids or fluids containing sharp debris. Its lightweight design allows for easy handling by a single person, making it ideal for various environments such as farms, gardens, and construction sites.
UV-resistant 3-inch flat-end water hose (with connector). This water hose has UV-resistant properties. The 3-inch specification allows for a larger flow rate. The flat-end design is convenient for storage and laying, and the connector is convenient for connection and use. It is suitable for a variety of water delivery scenarios.
