Overview
Pressure washing hose, 30 metres × 3/8 inch, supplied with fittings.
It is the supply hose between a truckmount's pressure washing outlet and the gun or lance, in the length most operators actually need for exterior work — 30 metres reaches around most buildings from a single set-up.

The working pressure rating, temperature rating, cover material and fitting type are not stated in the CCW record for this item, and we are not going to publish figures we cannot verify. If you are matching this hose to a specific machine, ask us for the rating before you order — on a pressure washing circuit that is not a detail to assume.
Choosing hose length and bore
Longer hose costs pressure. Every metre of 3/8 inch hose drops some pressure at the gun, and joining two 30 metre lengths to reach further costs more than most operators expect. Where you regularly need distance, it is better to move the machine than to keep adding hose.
Bore matters as much as length. A 3/8 inch bore suits the flow of a truckmount pressure washing outlet; dropping to a smaller bore to reuse an existing hose will cost you pressure at the gun and can make the machine cycle badly on by-pass.
Handling and storage
Kinks are what kill pressure hose. A hose that has been kinked has damage in the reinforcement whether or not it shows on the cover, and it will fail at that point — under pressure, without warning.
Reel it rather than coiling it on the ground, keep it off hot exhaust components, and do not drag it across cut concrete or roof sheeting.
Inspect the fittings at the same time as the hose. Crimps that have started to move, or a cover that has ballooned near a fitting, mean the hose comes out of service.
Frequently asked questions
What pressure is it rated to?
Not stated in our record for this item. Ask us before ordering — we will confirm against the supplier's specification rather than guess.
What fittings does it come with?
It is supplied with fittings. We have not verified the fitting type and thread from a supplier document. Tell us what you are connecting to and we will confirm.
Can I join two lengths?
You can, but expect a noticeable pressure drop at the gun. Where you regularly need the distance, moving the machine gives a better result.
Is it suitable for hot water?
Not stated in our record. Do not assume a pressure hose is rated for hot water — ask us first.
Tell us the machine you are running and what you are cleaning, and we will confirm the correct hose specification before you order.
