A series of tubes

A hose is a hollow tube designed to carry fluids from one location to another. FLUID ( F ast L ight '''U'''ser '''I'''nterface D esigner is a graphical editor that is used to produce FLTK Source code Hoses are also sometimes called tube or pipes (the word pipe usually refers to a rigid tube, whereas a hose is usually a flexible one), or more generally tubing. A pipe is a tube or hollow cylinder used to convey materials or as a structural component Tubing is a Pipe or hollow cylinder for the conveyance of fluids (liquids or gases The shape of a hose is usually cylindrical (having a circular cross section). A cylinder is one of the most basic curvilinear geometric shapes the Surface formed by the points at a fixed distance from a given Straight line, the axis Circles are simple Shapes of Euclidean geometry consisting of those points in a plane which are at a constant Distance, called the In Geometry, a cross section is the intersection of a body in 2-dimensional space with a line or of a body in 3-dimensional space with a plane etc In recent years hose are manufactured from special grade polyethylene (specially LLDPE).

Hose design is based on a combination of application and performance. Common factors are Size, Pressure Rating, Weight, Length, Straight hose or Coilhose and Chemical Compatabiltiy.

Hoses are made from one or a combination of different materials. Pneumatic applications mostly use Nylon, Polyurethane, Polyethylene, Nitrile, Neoprene or Rubber based on the environment and pressure rating. In recent years hose are manufactured from special grade polyethylene (LDPE and specially LLDPE).

Hoses can be used in water or other liquid environments or to convey air or other gases. Water is a common Chemical substance that is essential for the survival of all known forms of Life. Liquid is one of the principal States of matter. A liquid is a Fluid that has the particles loose and can freely form a distinct surface at the boundaries of Temperature and layers The temperature of the Earth's atmosphere varies with altitude the mathematical relationship between temperature and altitude varies among five This page is about the physical properties of gas as a state of matter Hoses used to carry fluids through air or fluid environments and they are typically used with clamps, spigots, and nozzles to control fluid flow. A clamp is a fastening device to hold or secure objects tightly together to prevent movement or separation through the application of inward Pressure. A nozzle is a mechanical device or Orifice designed to control the characteristics of a Fluid flow as it exits (or enters an enclosed chamber or Pipe.

Polyethylene hose and tubes are made in accordance to American Society of Agriculture Engineer (ASAE), Bureau of Indian Standards (ISI), ISO and American Standard for Testing and Materials (ASTM).

Specific applications include the following:


Some of the more notable manufacturers of drip hoses are:
