Why this hose?
INDUFORM RL is a smooth water hose with a PVC tube and a PVC cover, reinforced with polyester plies. Tube and cover are bonded with heat, which gives much stronger adhesion than many glued alternatives.
The hose is characterised by strong cross-braided reinforcement and is marked Induform/RL PN 12 bar. It is made to EN ISO 1307:2008.
The hose is supplied in whole coils of 40 m. The manufacturer does not supply cut lengths.
Where it is used
INDUFORM RL is used as a water supply hose at construction sites, in industry, at shipyards and in other places where higher quality requirements apply to a water hose.
The RL variant has a smooth cover. The RR variant has a ribbed cover and its own data, see the INDUFORM RR page.
The hose is made for water. Contact us before using it with other media.
INDUFORM RL is sold as a water hose for medium-duty applications.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between INDUFORM-RL and INDUFORM-RR?
RL has a smooth cover and a working pressure of 12 bar. RR has a ribbed cover and its own data. Check the data on each product page.
Can INDUFORM RL be used for chemicals?
INDUFORM RL is a water hose. Contact us before using it with other media.
Is INDUFORM RL food-grade?
The manufacturer's data do not state a food approval, so we do not offer INDUFORM RL as food-grade.
Can INDUFORM RL be used at high temperatures?
INDUFORM RL is intended for -20 to +60 C. At higher temperatures, another hose type should be selected.
Which couplings are recommended?
The manufacturer recommends assembly with GEKA brass quick-action couplings with hosetail and ABA worm drive hose clamps. We advise on compatible accessories.
How long does INDUFORM RL last?
Service life depends on pressure, temperature and wear. We do not state a fixed service life. Inspect the hose regularly.
Can the hose be delivered in other lengths?
No - the hose is supplied in whole coils of 40 m. We have a wide range of couplings for complete assemblies.
Should INDUFORM be inspected regularly?
Yes - all high-pressure pressure hoses should be inspected annually for wear, cracks and coupling integrity. Pressure testing is recommended every 1-2 years depending on application.
