TIGERFLEX

TIGERFLEX is a brand of flexible PVC hose products used in industrial fluid transfer, with a product line centered on suction and discharge hose assemblies. The brand is known for hoses that combine a clear PVC tube with a rigid PVC helix reinforcement, a construction that resists collapse under vacuum while remaining flexible enough for routing in temporary and permanent installations. TIGERFLEX hoses are typically used for water transfer, dewatering, and light chemical movement where visual flow monitoring is useful. The clear construction allows operators to see the medium moving through the line, which can assist with priming and troubleshooting. Temperature ranges for the suction and discharge assemblies span from approximately -6°F to 150°F, depending on the specific SKU, making them suitable for ambient and moderately warm service conditions. Pressure ratings vary by inside diameter, with smaller diameters carrying higher ratings; for example, a 3-inch assembly is rated to 45 psi, while a 6-inch assembly is rated to 30 psi. These ratings reflect the relationship between diameter and wall strength in helix-reinforced PVC hose. 3G Electric supplies TIGERFLEX hose assemblies as part of its industrial equipment catalog, offering multiple SKUs with logistics support for global delivery. The product range includes assemblies with inside diameters from 3 inches to 6 inches and standard 10-foot lengths, with manufacturer part numbers such as SH300C010-NH300, SH400C010-NH400, SH500C010-NH500, and SH600C010-NH600. Each assembly is supplied with the hose and necessary fittings for immediate installation. For plant engineers and maintenance managers, TIGERFLEX hoses provide a straightforward solution for suction and discharge applications where a balance of flexibility, vacuum resistance, and visual inspection is required. The rigid PVC helix prevents the hose from collapsing when used on the suction side of a pump, while the PVC construction offers resistance to many common industrial fluids. The clear wall allows quick identification of blockages or air pockets. These hoses are not intended for high-pressure hydraulic service or for use with fluids that attack PVC; selection should be based on the specific chemical compatibility and temperature of the application. 3G Electric maintains inventory and provides quotation support for TIGERFLEX products, with the ability to ship to industrial sites worldwide. The catalog includes multiple diameter and length options, and 3G Electric can assist with identifying the correct assembly for a given flow rate, vacuum condition, and connection type. Because the hoses are supplied as assemblies, end fittings are matched to the hose size and are ready for connection to pumps, tanks, and manifolds. This reduces on-site fabrication time and ensures the assembly meets the intended pressure and vacuum requirements. For procurement specialists, 3G Electric offers a single source for TIGERFLEX hose assemblies alongside other industrial equipment, simplifying the purchasing process and consolidating logistics. The brand's focus on PVC suction and discharge hose assemblies makes it a practical choice for water transfer, dewatering, and similar duties where a clear, flexible, and vacuum-resistant hose is needed.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about TIGERFLEX from 3G Electric.

What is the temperature range for TIGERFLEX PVC suction and discharge hose assemblies?

TIGERFLEX PVC suction and discharge hose assemblies are rated for a temperature range that varies slightly by SKU. The 3-inch and 4-inch assemblies are rated from -4°F to 150°F, while the 5-inch and 6-inch assemblies are rated from -6°F to 150°F. These ranges apply to the hose material itself and should be considered alongside the temperature of the fluid being conveyed. Operation outside these limits may affect the flexibility or pressure rating of the hose. Always verify the specific SKU's temperature range before installation.

What does the rigid PVC helix reinforcement do in TIGERFLEX hoses?

The rigid PVC helix embedded in the hose wall provides structural support to prevent the hose from collapsing under vacuum. When the hose is used on the suction side of a pump, the internal pressure drops below atmospheric, and without reinforcement the hose would flatten. The helix resists this collapse, maintaining an open flow path. It also adds crush resistance for hoses that may be stepped on or run over in temporary installations. The helix is bonded into the clear PVC wall, so the interior remains smooth for efficient flow.

What pressure ratings are available for TIGERFLEX SH series hose assemblies?

TIGERFLEX SH series hose assemblies have pressure ratings that depend on the inside diameter. The 3-inch assembly (SH300C010-NH300) is rated to 45 psi. The 4-inch assembly (SH400C010-NH400) is rated to 35 psi. The 5-inch assembly (SH500C010-NH500) is rated to 35 psi. The 6-inch assembly (SH600C010-NH600) is rated to 30 psi. These ratings are for discharge service at ambient temperature. For suction service, the vacuum rating is determined by the helix reinforcement, which prevents collapse. Always operate within the published ratings for the specific SKU.

Can TIGERFLEX PVC hoses be used with chemicals other than water?

TIGERFLEX PVC suction and discharge hoses are primarily intended for water transfer and dewatering. PVC offers resistance to many dilute acids, bases, and salt solutions, but it is not compatible with all chemicals. Solvents, oils, and concentrated oxidizing agents may degrade the PVC tube or helix. Before using a TIGERFLEX hose with any chemical, verify compatibility using a chemical resistance chart for PVC at the expected concentration and temperature. If compatibility is uncertain, consider a hose with a different tube material. 3G Electric can provide the material specifications for further evaluation.

What sizes of TIGERFLEX suction and discharge hose assemblies does 3G Electric supply?

3G Electric supplies TIGERFLEX PVC suction and discharge hose assemblies in several sizes. The current catalog includes assemblies with inside diameters of 3 inches, 4 inches, 5 inches, and 6 inches, all in 10-foot lengths. Each assembly is supplied with the hose and appropriate end fittings. The clear PVC construction allows visual flow monitoring. For sizes or lengths not listed, contact 3G Electric for availability. The assemblies are suitable for water suction and discharge applications within the published temperature and pressure limits.
