Why use a layflat hose?
The layflat hose construction is unique compared to more conventional rigid polyethene, PVC, glass fibre and steel pipes. Some of the advantages include:
- Simple maintenance – Any repair work or maintenance can be carried out in a much more time-friendly manner. Leading to reduced bills for labour and equipment and minimal downtime.
- Easy storage and transportation – The layflat hoses are much lighter than their counterparts and present a more compact design, so storage isn’t an issue.
- Long service life – Angus layflat hoses can continue utilising high-pumping pressures across various applications without requiring much upkeep. The material properties enable the Flowmaster hose to survive the harshest terrains and environments and withstand corrosion.
