Pressure washer hoses

Which pressure washer hose will be best?

When you are choosing a supply hose for your pressure washer, take special note of the following:

• operating temperature - not so important with cold-water washers, but if you are working with hot water, the hose should be suitable for this. The hot water hoses for pressure washers in our range are made from synthetic rubber, which makes them resistant to high temperatures (up to approx. 150 degrees Celsius). 
• resistance to external factors - cleaning does not always take place in safe conditions. Therefore, the hose should be resistant to mechanical damage and resistant to weather conditions, detergents, or oils; 
• maximum working pressure - this is one of the most important parameters when it comes to washer hoses. It usually depends on the number of braids in the construction of the hose; 
• flexibility - a flexible pressure washer hose not only increases working comfort but also has a longer service life; 
• internal diameter - another very important parameter, as it is the diameter that determines whether there will be adequate pressure in the hose for optimum operation (this is particularly important with longer hoses).

How is a pressure washer hose constructed?

A pressure washer hose is constructed of three layers:

• inner - usually made from heat-resistant synthetic rubber; 
• reinforcement - steel braid, which increases resistance to both mechanical damage and working pressure; 
• outer - here, too, synthetic rubber is most commonly used, which is abrasion-, weather- and oil-resistant.

What are the different types of pressure washer hoses?

When it comes to the models available, pressure washer hoses are divided primarily by internal diameter and maximum operating pressure.

The first is referred to by the abbreviation DN. For example: pressure washer hose DN 6 has a cross-section size of 6 mm.

As far as the maximum operating pressure is concerned, however, this depends on the number of braids in the hose construction. The more braids, the more robust the hose will be. A high-pressure washer hose can have up to 6 or 8 steel braids.

Where is the pressure washer hose used?

Pressure washer hose has a wide range of applications. They are very suitable for cleaning building walls, paving stones, cars and other vehicles, garden machinery and tools, swimming pools, etc.

Whether you are interested in domestic or industrial applications, we have the product for you.

Our hoses are suitable for many tasks: a water supply hose for a pressure washer, a suction hose for a pressure washer, a hose for a pressure washer for pipe cleaning, and a multitude of other works.

How to connect the hose to the pressure washer?

To connect the hose to the pressure washer, first ensure that the washer is turned off.  Then, attach one end of the hose to the water outlet of the washer using the appropriate connectors (threaded, quick-release, or bayonet).  Attach the other end of the hose to the pressure lance. Finally, check that all connections are tight to prevent leaks.

How to wind the hose onto the reel of the pressure washer?

To wind the hose onto the reel of the pressure washer, start by connecting one end of the hose to the reel.  Then, holding the hose in one hand, slowly turn the reel, evenly winding the hose onto it.  Ensure that the hose is not twisted or kinked to ensure effective use next time.

Can a garden hose be used with a pressure washer?

A garden hose should not be used with a pressure washer because it is not designed to handle the high water pressure generated by the washer.  It may not withstand the pressure, leading to hose damage and reduced device performance.
