Fumigation hose
TECTUL · Dispatch across Colombia · Exports to Central & South America
Chemical-resistant hose for spraying pesticides and chemicals in agricultural fumigation applications and high-pressure pneumatic tools. Covers 1/4″ to 1/2″, in 100 meter rolls, with a 600 psi working pressure and 1200 psi burst pressure (1:2 safety factor) at every diameter. Wall thickness from 2.5 to 3 mm depending on diameter. Abrasion- and aggressive-chemical-resistant construction, with low weight and high flexibility for prolonged manual handling.
IMPORTANT: reference data — may differ from the physical product; verify with an advisor before buying.

IMPORTANT
This technical data sheet is a reference guide to the properties of this product type; it is not a quality certificate for the product you are buying. The measurements, dimensions and physical or geometric characteristics of the product supplied may vary by manufacturer, heat and lot, and may even fall outside the cited standards. If any of these figures is critical to your design or build, verify it with one of our advisors against the physical product or the lot's mill certificate, so you can be fully certain of what you are buying. · Original data sheet: tectul.com/en/conduccion-de-fluidos/mangueras/ficha-tecnica-manguera-para-fumigacion.html

2. Declared dual use: fumigation and pneumatic tools
The manufacturer declares two applications for this hose: agricultural chemical spraying and high-pressure pneumatic tools. They are compatible because both demand the same combination of properties — a wall rated for 600 psi working pressure, flexibility for continuous manual handling, and abrasion resistance from field dragging — though aggressive chemical resistance is what sets this hose apart from a generic pneumatic hose of equal pressure. Before using it with a specific agrochemical, confirm the hose compound's compatibility with the active ingredient and the formulation's solvent: the manufacturer sheet does not list a substance-by-substance chemical compatibility table.
3. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is it compatible with any pesticide or herbicide?
The manufacturer declares resistance to "aggressive chemicals" in general but does not publish a compatibility table by active ingredient or solvent; confirm with the supplier before using with a specific formulation.
Can it be used on pneumatic tools?
Yes, that is one of the two applications the manufacturer declares, given its 600 psi W/P.
What is the safety factor?
1:2 (600 psi working over 1200 psi burst), lower than the typical 1:3 or 1:4 of hydraulic hoses; this is consistent with its pneumatic-pressure use rather than hydraulic power.
4. Application notes
Feasibility
Confirm the hose compound's chemical compatibility with the specific agrochemical's active ingredient and solvent before use.
Installation
Periodically inspect the wall for abrasion wear in field use; continuous dragging over terrain is its typical working condition.
Design
Do not exceed 600 psi working pressure; the 1:2 safety factor is lower than that of power hydraulic hoses.
5. Technical notice and limitation of liability
The pressures, dimensions, weights and other characteristics in this sheet are theoretical calculation values obtained from nominal properties published in the standards cited (ASME B36.10-2022, ASME B31.3-2024, ASTM A106/A106M-19a, ASTM A53/A53M-24, API Spec 5L 46th ed.). They guide selection; they are not a certificate of conformity for any given lot.
The actual behavior of each lot varies with manufacturing — wall tolerance (up to −12.5%), out-of-roundness, residual stresses — and with the raw material — chemical composition within the ranges the standard allows, heat-to-heat differences. To certify a lot, the tests defined by its product standard are required: tensile test, flattening test and hydrostatic test, documented in the manufacturer's mill test certificate (MTC), which TECTUL supplies upon request; testing of the lot in an independent laboratory can also be arranged.
These values must not be used as the sole criterion in critical or safety applications, or wherever failure of the line may compromise people, property or the environment: in such cases the design belongs to the project's responsible engineer under the applicable code (ASME B31.3, B31.1 or the one governing the installation), with the design temperature, corrosion allowance and load cases of the actual service. Before deciding with these data, consult our technical team.
