Continental Contitech 20013335 Food Beverage Hose 4in Id

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20013335 is a clear food and beverage transfer hose designed for use in food processing, beverage dispensing, and sanitary fluid handling applications. With a 4-inch inside diameter and a 4.5-inch outside diameter, this hose handles both pressure and vacuum service, rated to 55 psi working pressure and 29 inches of mercury (InHg) vacuum. The clear construction allows visual inspection of flow during operation. Licensed plumbers, food equipment technicians, and plant maintenance professionals typically source and install this hose in commercial and industrial settings.

This hose is suited for food-grade liquid transfer in commercial kitchens, breweries, dairy operations, and food processing facilities. It performs across a working temperature range of -15 degrees F to 158 degrees F, making it appropriate for both chilled and mildly heated process lines. The 100-foot coil is sold in 1-foot increments with a 5-foot minimum cut length per order. A minimum order quantity of 5 units applies. The 16-inch bend radius should be observed to avoid kinking and flow restriction during routing.

Compatibility

Designed for use as a food-grade pressure and vacuum transfer hose in commercial and industrial food processing, beverage, and sanitary fluid handling systems where FDA-compliant materials are required.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified technicians familiar with sanitary piping systems and applicable food safety regulations. Shut down and depressurize the system fully before cutting or connecting the hose. Observe the 16-inch minimum bend radius at all times to prevent kinking and premature wear. Verify that all fittings, clamps, and couplings used are also rated for food contact service and are compatible with the 4-inch hose diameter.
