Continental Contitech 20459045 Chemical Petroleum Hose 250 Psi

Product Description

The CONTINENTAL CONTITECH 20459045 is a nitrile PEX chemical and petroleum hose rated for up to 250 psi working pressure. Built for fuel and chemical service, it handles diesel, ethanol, gasoline, oil, and other petroleum-based products in demanding shop and field environments. The nitrile construction resists hydrocarbon degradation, making it a reliable choice for fueling systems, fluid transfer lines, and petroleum service equipment. With a 2-inch bend radius, it routes cleanly in tight installations. This hose is sold in 1-foot increments with a 10-foot minimum cut length and ships from a 100-foot coil. It is installed by licensed plumbers, petroleum equipment technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals.

This hose is suited for residential and commercial petroleum fluid transfer applications including fueling systems, hydraulic return lines, and chemical dispensing setups. It is appropriate for use wherever diesel, ethanol, gasoline, or petroleum-based oils are conveyed through flexible hose assemblies. The black nitrile construction and coupling-style fittings make it compatible with standard petroleum service hardware. Its flexibility and pressure rating make it a practical choice for both fixed installations and service vehicle setups where routing around tight bends is required.

Key Features

• 250 psi maximum working pressure for petroleum and chemical service
• Nitrile hose material resists degradation from hydrocarbons, diesel, ethanol, gasoline, and oil
• 2-inch bend radius allows routing in confined spaces
• PEX construction with coupling-style fittings for standard petroleum service connections
• Sold in 1-foot increments with a 10-foot minimum cut length from a 100-foot coil
• Black exterior for UV and chemical resistance typical of petroleum service hose

Compatibility

Designed for use with diesel, ethanol, gasoline, oil, and petroleum-based products in petroleum fluid transfer and chemical dispensing systems. Intended for use with coupling-style fittings standard to petroleum service hose assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed plumber or qualified petroleum equipment technician familiar with applicable local codes and NFPA 30 or NFPA 30A guidelines for flammable and combustible liquid handling. Always depressurize and purge the line before cutting or connecting hose sections. Ensure fittings are rated for the working pressure and compatible with the fluid being conveyed. Do not exceed the rated 250 psi working pressure or the minimum bend radius during installation.
