Our 32mm (1¼ inch) layflat hose is cut for the 32mm outlets found on most puddle pumps. Because it rolls completely flat, pump and hose store together in a single crate, which is exactly what you want from an emergency kit that may sit untouched for months and then be needed in a hurry.
With yarn reinforcement rated to 4 bar and a weight of just 0.17 kg per metre, it deploys in seconds across floors, driveways and gardens to carry pumped floodwater to a drain. Keep the run reasonably straight and at ground level; for discharge that must climb stairs or turn sharp corners without kinking, pair your puddle pump with our 32mm suction and delivery hose. Coils from 6m to 100m.
Lay flat hose has a maximum working temperature of 60° and a minimum of -15°C
To help reduce layflay hose kinking on vertical water pumps an elbow hose tail can be used

Layflat hose is very affordable but can kink. Depending on your use, you may be better using a reinforced suction delivery hose for your needs.
Suction delivery hose is ideal for pumping up stairs or over obstacles.
