Willcox Rackmaster Polypropylene Bottom Loading Hose

Polypropylene lined composite hose with a high tensile strength galvanized steel inner and outer wire.

Specifically engineered with 100% petroleum resistant barrier layers embedded in the hose wall to prevent permeation and leakage during bottom loading applications. Available in sizes 3” and 4” diameter, hose assemblies are conductive and capable of pressure up to 200 psi (14 bar) or full vacuum. A diverse selection of end fittings is available for hydrocarbon transfer applications.
