Horizon®/Frontier® Multi-Purpose Rubber is known across many industries. The rubber remains more flexible over time as compared to PVC hoses or lower quality rubber hoses. It can be used for air, water (not food grade), heater, or low pressure agricultural spray where oil presence is limited (not designed for use as chemical transfer hose in critical applications). Its cover is resistant to light/medium abrasion, ozone, and weathering. Larger sizes are typically used for heavy duty water service, but not for regular washdown due to the physical weight and size of the hose (see our Water & Fire Sections for lighter washdown hose). NOTE: Multi-Purpose Hoses ARE NOT INTENDED for critical applications or permanent mechanical installations, such as interior plumbing applications, heat pump connectors, natural gas, critical fluids, etc.
