Snap-tite’s 5P™ is a medium pressure hose that is tough enough to meet most application requirements, while remaining economical for your budget. 5P™ is a polyester, single jacket style hose with an EPDM (Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) rubber liner that can handle most fluids, including some chemicals and petroleum-based products. It has a maximum operating pressure of 250 psi (1723 kPa) and can be treated with our optional Dura-Cote™ treatment for a higher level of abrasion resistance while preventing water-pickup.
