Rubber vacuum hose tubing
Rubber hoses have a wide application. They are most often used for the transfer of liquids and gases, and they are also used in hydraulic, pneumatic, medical and other specialized spheres. The rubber can choose natural or synthetic, and its basic properties are great flexibility and enviable elasticity. There are a large number of different rubber tubing on the market, depending on their purpose. They can be longer, shorter, smaller or larger in diameter, with additions at the ends, reinforced with wire or not.
A special type of these rubber hoses are rubber vacuum hose tubings. They are made of high-quality rubber and have very smooth interior walls. These pipes themselves can be of different diameters and of different quality.
If you need to connect the battery and the valve, for example, you will use rubber vacuum hose tubing of small per mille. If you need to transfer the vacuum over longer distances, with a higher flow, you will use reinforced rubber vacuum tubes of higher per mille. These hoses can be produced in different colors and different hardness. Additional materials (reinforcements) can be woven around the vacuum rubber hose, can be spiraling or packed (wrapping) with layers of industrial canvas. In this way, the flexibility of the pipe is reduced but resistance to pressure is increased. However, the manufacturers of rubber hoses figured out how to increase the pressure resistance without reducing the flexibility, so the pipes strengthened the bellows and corrugations. They tolerate temperature differes and UV radiation very well, so they can be used at temperatures from -40C to + 180C. Rubber vacuum hose tubings are very resilient and flexible.
This type of hose is most often used in the automotive industry, in vacuum braking systems, cylinder head cleaning, etc. The use is very wide and almost every field of industry uses such hoses adapted to their activities. In addition to wide industrial applications, these hoses are used daily in the household. Every time you turn on your vacuum cleaner, you use this type of rubber hose.
With the development of technology, the use of rubber vacuum hose tubing is only gaining in importance, but also, in relation to different uses, the number of different forms of vacuum tubes is constantly increasing.

Discuss Your RequirementsProduct specifications
- Product form
- Hollow elastomer tubing for a fitted line or sleeve
- Application focus
- Medical-device assemblies, cable sleeving, battery connections, industrial fluid lines and vehicle hose runs. Size the part against the selected assembly.
- Dimensions to confirm
- Inside diameter, outside diameter, wall thickness and cut length. Match these to medical-device assemblies and cable sleeving.
- Vacuum duty
- Specify absolute pressure, hold time and temperature; check bore collapse at the installed bend radius.
- Contact conditions
- Other gases and hydraulic fluid: define concentration, temperature and contact time, then check compatibility with the chosen compound.
- Exposure to evaluate
- Sunlight or UV. Validate the selected material under the combined conditions.
- Line layout
- Check bend radius, unsupported spans and clearance at both connections.
