Eastrans Braided Clear Vinyl Hose 5/16" ID x 25ft — 250 PSI, UV-Resistant PVC

EASTRANS 5/16" ID x 25ft high-pressure braided clear vinyl hose is a heavy-duty, flexible tubing designed for oil, fuel, water and air lines where visibility, strength, and kink resistance are required.

This clear braided vinyl hose combines a smooth interior for easy flow with reinforced braid for higher working pressure. The transparent construction lets you monitor fluids while the PVC formulation resists many common chemicals and ultraviolet light. Sized with a 5/16" inner diameter and a 25-foot length, it fits a wide range of adapters and systems used in industrial, agricultural, and hobby settings.

How durable is this braided clear vinyl hose under pressure?

The braided reinforcement and firm PVC construction deliver dependable performance up to the specified working pressure. The hose maintains shape and resists bursting under routine high-pressure applications while remaining flexible enough for routing in tight spaces.

• Working pressure: 250 PSI
• Wall thickness: 2.8 mm for strength and durability
• Hardness: 73A (firm) to limit expansion under load
• Reinforced braid reduces stretching and improves burst resistance

Will this tubing kink or become brittle in outdoor or confined installations?

The thicker walls and braided reinforcement reduce kinking compared with thin-walled PVC tubing, and the material retains flexibility across typical working temperatures. It is formulated to resist UV exposure and many common chemicals, extending usable life outdoors and in enclosed machinery bays.

• Temperature range: 23°F to 149°F (-5°C to 65°C)
• UV-resistant PVC helps prevent cracking from sunlight
• Flexible enough for tight routing without collapsing
• Non-toxic and BPA-free for safer handling

What sizes, lengths, and connections does it support for common systems?

This hose is built with a 5/16" inner diameter and a 17/32" outside diameter, making it compatible with many push-fit and barbed fittings used in equipment for liquids and gases. The full 25-foot coil offers enough length for moderate runs without seams, and the smooth bore minimizes friction and buildup.

• Inner diameter: 5/16" (0.3125")
• Outer diameter: 17/32" (0.53125")
• Total length: 25 feet per coil
• Compatible with barbed, clamp, and push-fit adapters sized for 5/16" ID

Is this safe for applications involving water, fuel, or contact with food-related equipment?

The chemistry of Eastrans braided PVC is non-toxic and BPA-free, so it is suitable for many water-handling and low-risk fluid transfer tasks. While it handles fuel, oil, and air lines, always verify compatibility with specific chemicals and follow local codes when used in fuel systems or potable water applications.

• Non-toxic, BPA-free PVC construction
• Suitable for water, oil, fuel, and air in general-purpose use
• Check manufacturer recommendations for aggressive solvents or concentrated chemicals
• Not certified here as potable-water rated — verify before drinking-water installations

Who is this for: The EASTRANS 5/16" ID x 25ft clear braided vinyl hose is intended for technicians, farmers, aquaculture operators, engineers, and DIYers who need a visible, robust tubing solution for pumps, dispensers, pneumatic lines, and small machinery. Choose this hose when you want clear fluid visibility, higher working pressure capacity, and a kink-resistant line that performs reliably in tight or outdoor installations.
