Yellow, Green and Red Spiral Hoses: Differences and Applications
Colour and Product Designation in Spiral Hoses
The yellow and green suction and red discharge ranges on this site identify product duties. These colours are not a universal standard or a numerical pressure/vacuum guarantee. Verify the chosen model’s diameter, fluid and temperature conditions separately.

| Product Range | Selection Focus |
|---|---|
| Yellow and Green Suction | Verified vacuum rating, bore and fluid compatibility for pump suction |
| Red Discharge | Working pressure and fitting suitability for the discharge line |
| Standard and Heavy Duty | Comparison of wall, reinforcement, bend limits and performance data |
Verify Diameter and Connections Together
Assess the pump curve, required flow, length and actual bore. Do not apply generic rules such as a suction hose one size larger or double clamps to every system. Confirm hose, connector and clamp compatibility and technical limits in writing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the yellow spiral hose used for?
The yellow suction ranges listed here are candidates for pump suction service. Verify vacuum, diameter, temperature and fluid suitability in the selected series’ data; colour does not guarantee suitability for every duty.
What is the green spiral hose used for?
Green suction products are selected against suction conditions. Do not assume their performance is identical to the yellow series apart from colour; compare wall, reinforcement, dimensions and technical ratings.
What is the red spiral hose used for?
The red discharge ranges listed here are considered for pressure delivery and drainage. Verify fluid and working-pressure suitability. Suction use would require a separate explicit vacuum rating.
What is the difference between suction and discharge hoses?
Suction requires suitability for vacuum and collapse resistance; discharge requires positive working-pressure suitability. A product serving both needs both ratings. A suction label does not mean unlimited vacuum resistance.
How to choose spiral hose diameter?
Assess pump connections and curve, required flow, actual bore, suction lift and line losses together. A small/medium/large pump label is not a sufficient diameter-selection rule.
What does heavy duty spiral hose mean?
The series label may indicate a different wall or reinforcement design, but it does not prove a fixed percentage improvement. Compare standard and heavy-duty models at the same diameter and temperature using documented vacuum, pressure and abrasion data.
What color is the vacuum truck suction hose?
Colour does not establish suitability for a suction truck. Select a suction model that meets vacuum, waste-content, diameter and connection requirements, and verify suitability by product code.
How much are spiral hose prices 2026?
Standard yellow suction hose is 1" 44.40 TRY/meter, 2" 139.86 TRY/meter, 4" 410.70 TRY/meter; VAT is excluded. Prices of other absorbent series are different. Quantity, stock, transportation and possible discount are determined in the written offer.
How much pressure can the spiral hose withstand?
Compressive and vacuum resistance cannot be determined from color or standard/heavy series name. Request the manufacturer's operating pressure and vacuum ratings for the selected diameter, temperature, and fluid; Consider suction and discharge applications separately.
When is transparent spiral hose preferred?
A clear wall can help where the flow must be visible. Transparency does not prove food, medical or drinking-water suitability; check the selected product’s documentation for that fluid and application.
Is the yellow spiral hose used at the inlet or outlet of the pump?
Use the product’s stated suction or discharge duty. Verify inlet vacuum and outlet working pressure separately. Yellow colour alone does not approve both duties or guarantee resistance to collapse.
How to choose the right diameter for a vacuum truck suction hose?
Assess vehicle connections, pump data, required flow, solids in the waste and route together. Review the listed sizes and state actual bore and uninterrupted length in the enquiry.
How to connect spiral hose?
Select a compatible connector and clamp assembly, release pressure and vacuum, then follow the product instructions. Do not guess clamp count or tightening values. Verify sealing and retention before commissioning.
Is the transparent spiral hose food-safe?
Consider only a product whose conformity scope covers the particular food, temperature and contact duration. Transparency or a generic certificate statement does not approve every food; check documentation and cleaning instructions together.
How to store spiral hose?
Store flat or in large coils when not in use. Narrow bends damage the spiral structure. Store indoors for UV protection. Keep away from environments with risk of frost during winter months.
