What is a Soft End Rubber Hose?

A Soft End Rubber Hose is a rubber hose that features unreinforced or less-reinforced ends (called soft ends), making them easier to:

• Clamp or fit onto nozzles/pipes

• Minimize metal contact

• Reduce wear and tear on flanged joints

These are different from hard end or flanged end hoses, where the ends are rigid and have steel flanges or beaded collars.

Price Estimate

• 1,500 to 5,000+ per meter, depending on:

  • Hose diameter

  • Pressure rating

  • Type of rubber

  • Application-specific design
