High Pressure Hoses  for Every Duty

High pressure work puts hoses under enormous stress. Whether you are cleaning a yard with a pressure washer, jetting out a drain or powering a hydraulic ram, the hose has to contain that pressure safely, bend where it needs to and stand up to rough handling. 

New Hoses Direct supplies high pressure hoses made up with fittings to suit your equipment, in the length and rating you need. Tell us what the hose is for and we will help you find the right construction, then send it out with nationwide delivery.

HIGH PRESSURE HOSES BUILT FOR SAFE, RELIABLE WORK


Reinforcement Types Explained

The strength of a high pressure hose comes from its reinforcement. Textile braided hose suits lower pressures and lighter duties, while steel wire braid, in one or two layers, handles the higher pressures found on most commercial pressure washers and many hydraulic circuits. 

For the toughest jobs, such as water jetting and heavy hydraulics, spiral wound steel reinforcement gives the highest pressure ratings and better resistance to surges. Thermoplastic hose is another option where light weight and a smooth, non-marking cover matter.

Choosing a High Pressure Hose

Start with the maximum working pressure of your pump or system and choose a hose rated at or above it. Never use a hose with a lower rating, even for a short time. Temperature matters too: hot water washers need a hose and inner tube designed for heat.

Then consider the bore, which affects flow and pressure drop, the length you need to reach the work, and the cover. An abrasion resistant or non-marking cover can make a big difference to service life and to the surfaces the hose is dragged across. Share these details and we will recommend a suitable hose.

Pressure Washing

Pressure washer hoses must be easy to handle while coping with high pressure, hot water and detergents. 

We make up replacement and extension hoses with the right fittings for your machine. See our cleaning hoses for more washdown options.

Water Jetting

Drain jetting and surface preparation run at very high pressures, so the hose has to be specified carefully for the job. 

Tell us the pressure, flow and length you need and we will help you find a suitable jetting hose with matching fittings.

Hydraulic Systems

Hydraulic circuits on plant, machinery and vehicles are among the most common high pressure hose applications. 

From 1 wire and 2 wire braided hose to multi spiral, our hydraulic hoses page covers the options in more detail.

Industrial Cleaning

Food plants, workshops, vehicle washes and farms all rely on high pressure hose to keep equipment and floors clean. 

We can supply hose with covers suited to oils, fats and cleaning chemicals, helping it last longer in tough conditions.

Matching Fittings

The fitting matters as much as the hose. Its pressure rating must match or exceed the hose, and the thread or coupling must suit your equipment. 

We crimp fittings on to the hose so the assembly is ready to connect, and can supply couplings and adaptors to go with it.

Safety Equipment

A hose that separates under pressure can whip violently. Whip checks, or hose restraints, help to contain it if a connection lets go. 

We can advise on restraints, protective sleeving and other measures that make high pressure work safer for your team.

THE RIGHT RATING AND THE RIGHT FITTINGS

Inspection and Hose Testing

High pressure hoses should be checked before each use. Look for cuts, bulges, exposed reinforcement, damaged fittings and leaks, and take any doubtful hose out of service straight away. Never patch a damaged high pressure hose with tape or clamps. 

For extra peace of mind, our hose testing and certification service can confirm that assemblies hold their rated pressure. On-site testing is available by arrangement. Contact us to discuss what you need.

High Pressure Hose  Replacement

Every high pressure hose has a working life. Constant flexing, abrasion against rough ground, heat and chemicals gradually weaken it, and the risk of failure rises as it ages.

Replacing hoses before they fail protects your team and keeps the work moving. We make up assemblies to match your existing hoses, or suggest a tougher construction if the old one has not lasted as long as it should.

Send us the hose markings, length and fitting details, or describe the equipment it runs on, and we will build a replacement and arrange prompt delivery.

High Pressure Hose Specialists

Well-made hoses and straightforward advice for high pressure applications of every kind.

Contractors, cleaning firms, farms, factories and plant operators all depend on high pressure equipment every day. Each hose we make up is built to the specification you need, with fittings chosen to match the rating of the hose.

If you are not sure what you need, we can help. Our team can identify a hose from the markings on its cover, from the details of your pump or machine, or from a description of the task.
