Fittings & Hoses — Guide
Hose End Fitting Types
This guide introduces hose end fitting types through the three systems shown in the hose-end matching guide pictured on this site: PTFE, Rubber-CPE and Push Lock. Each system pairs a fitting family with a hose family, and the guide's job is to make that pairing visible before a buyer asks about a part.
The PTFE system pairs PTFE fittings with PTFE hose. The Rubber-CPE system pairs swivel or cutter fittings with CPE rubber hose. The Push Lock system pairs push lock fittings with push lock hose. Those three pairings are the guide's whole content: system names and their pairings, with no specification added to any of them.
A buyer who can name the system their hose belongs to has already answered the hardest part of a fitting inquiry. Name the system, name the ends, and confirm the rest before ordering.
What to put in your inquiry
- The fitting and hose pairing you are building, in your own words
- The end style you need at each joint, described from your drawing or sample
- The fluid or medium the line will carry, in general terms
- Any drawing, sample description, or photo reference you can share
Put the answers in your own words, with a drawing, a sample description, or a plain description of the build you are working on. The company website states an R&D service: able to design, develop, manufacture according to your drawings, samples or just an idea.
