Hot Tar & Asphalt Suction Hose
Hot tar and asphalt suction hose, rated 150 PSI, is specifically designed for high-temperature handling of liquid asphalt, bitumen, tar, and hot oil products in construction, road paving, and industrial transfer applications. Engineered with a specialized heat-resistant synthetic rubber tube, multiple textile cord plies, and a steel wire helix for full vacuum and crush resistance. The cover is abrasion, heat, and weather resistant – capable of continuous service up to 175°C (347°F) with intermit
Product description
Application
Designed for suction and discharge of hot asphalt, bitumen, tar, hot fuel oils, and other viscous petroleum derivatives up to 175°C. Used in road pavers, asphalt distributors, tank trucks, roofing applications, and industrial hot oil transfer.
Construction
- Tube: Black, static-conductive, heat-resistant synthetic rubber (EPDM or special elastomer blend) – formulated to withstand high temperatures without cracking or swelling.
- Reinforcement: High-tensile textile cord plies + a spiral steel wire helix for kink resistance, full vacuum capability, and structural integrity under heat.
- Cover: Black, heat-, abrasion-, oil-, and weather-resistant synthetic rubber (smooth or wrapped finish). Optional pin-pricked cover for gas permeation.
Performance
- Working Pressure: 150 PSI (10.3 bar)
- Burst Pressure: 4 x working pressure (600 PSI)
- Vacuum Rating: Full vacuum (28–29 in Hg)
- Temperature Range: -30°C to +175°C (-22°F to +347°F) continuous; intermittent peaks up to 200°C (392°F)
Available Sizes
1” to 6” (25 mm – 150 mm) ID, standard lengths 20 m or 60 ft.
Standards
Manufactured to meet or exceed applicable API, SAE, and EN standards for hot oil and asphalt transfer hoses.
Features
- Excellent heat resistance – no blistering or hardening at elevated temperatures
- Steel helix prevents hose collapse under suction of thick, viscous asphalt
- Static conductive tube (≤10⁶ Ω) for safe transfer of flammable materials
- Flexible even after heat cycling – easy to handle in paving applications
- Smooth bore minimizes flow resistance and material buildup
