Continental Contitech 20450351 Water Suction Hose 45 Psi

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20450351 is a thermoplastic water suction and discharge hose designed for transferring water in demanding fluid-handling applications. Rated for a working pressure of 45 psi with a burst pressure of 150 psi, it handles both suction and discharge service with a vacuum rating of 29.0 InHg. The temperature range spans -20 degrees F to 180 degrees F, making it suitable for use in variable outdoor and mechanical environments. This hose is sold in 1-foot increments with a 20-foot minimum cut length, and it is typically specified and installed by plumbing, irrigation, or industrial service professionals.

This hose is suited for water transfer in residential, commercial, and light industrial settings. Common applications include pump suction and discharge lines, drainage, irrigation systems, and general-purpose water handling where a flexible, thermoplastic construction is preferred over rubber or PVC alternatives. The green outer jacket aids in field identification. It is priced and cut per linear foot, allowing installers to order the exact footage needed for each job, provided the 20-foot minimum cut length is met.

Key Features

• Thermoplastic construction offers flexibility across a wide temperature range from -20 degrees F to 180 degrees F
• 45 psi working pressure with a 150 psi burst pressure rating for reliable suction and discharge service
• 29.0 InHg vacuum rating supports suction-side pump connections
• Green outer jacket for easy visual identification in the field
• Sold in 1-foot increments with a 20-foot minimum cut length to reduce material waste

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose thermoplastic water suction and discharge hose suitable for use with standard pump fittings and water-handling systems requiring 45 psi or lower working pressures.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed plumbers, irrigation technicians, or industrial fluid-handling professionals. Ensure the pump and connected system are fully depressurized and de-energized before connecting or disconnecting the hose. Use compatible hose clamps or fittings rated for the working pressure of the system. Inspect the hose for kinks or abrasion points after installation, as sharp bends can reduce vacuum and pressure performance.
