PVC hose is very stable and resistant to friction, it is a profitable choice, although it is not as flexible as other hose, it is very useful in winter and other times it has little effect, and it is not easy to get hung up when going around corners and obstacles . PVC air hose is not recommended to be used with compressed air for too long. PVC will crack over time and after many uses, the air compressor oil entering the pipeline and the heat generated by the compressed air accelerates the corrosion of PVC, so PVC air hoses are not very suitable for air compressors .
Nitrile rubber and polyurethane are the main particles of rubber air hose. Rubber air hoses are available in a variety of sizes and colors, the use of rubber air hoses in mining, drilling and construction may degrade the performance of rubber air hoses, it must maintain the life expectancy, frequency of use and the conditions to which the hose will be subjected element type. Overall, we can say that rubber hoses are more durable.
Both PVC and rubber are derived from polyurethane, the rubber air advantage remains the most flexible in foamy weather and weighs 1/3 the weight of any other air advantage, the rubber is the softest, most flexible of all hoses.
Main difference:
①The rubber air hose advantage is not very heavy (doesn’t kink), but is easy to roll, better than other advantages, all good in temperature, but the cost is quite high.
②PVC is cheap and light, it does kink easily, but not a lot
