Tiger Flex Green EPDM Suction Hose Assemblies – Durable Solutions for Australia’s Liquid Waste Industry

Fox Global supplied 2 ½ & 3 inch Green Tigerflex® hose assemblies with stainless steel camlocks to a Brisbane liquid waste depot. Ready-to-use, Australian made.

At Fox Global, we take pride in supplying high-performance hose assemblies and fittings that keep Australian industries moving. Our latest project involved supplying a batch of 2 ½ inch and 3 inch Green Tigerflex® assemblies, each manufactured in 10-meter lengths and supplied complete with stainless steel camlocks.

These hoses were delivered to a liquid waste transport depot in Brisbane, fully fitted and ready for immediate site use. By delivering a plug-and-play solution, we helped the client save both time and money, ensuring their operations could continue without costly delays.

Whether for liquid waste, wastewater handling, dewatering, chemical processing, mining, or food and beverage, Fox Global provides complete hose and fittings solutions tailored to the unique demands of Australian industry.


Why Choose Tigerflex® Green EPDM Suction Hose?

The Tigerflex® Green Suction Hose is a leading choice for septic, wastewater handling, and liquid waste transport applications due to its unique construction and industry-leading performance.

Construction

  • Tube: EPDM rubber for excellent chemical resistance.
  • Reinforcement: Polyethylene helix for strength and flexibility.
  • Cover: Convoluted green EPDM rubber for extra durability and handling ease.

Service Temperature Range

  • Minimum: -40 ºC
  • Maximum: 71 ºC

This wide temperature tolerance makes Tigerflex® hoses suitable for both extreme cold and hot Australian climates, ensuring consistent reliability across sites nationwide.


Key Features & Advantages of Tigerflex® Green Hoses

  1. Superior Rubber Compounds
    Tigerflex® uses only the highest-quality EPDM compounds, offering an unbeatable balance of durability, lightweight handling, flexibility, and chemical resistance.
  2. Superior Flexibility
    Independent testing confirms Tigerflex® hoses are up to 22% more flexible than competitors’ hoses, even in sub-zero weather. This makes them easier to deploy, retrieve, and transport.
  3. Easy-Slide Helix
    The rigid helix design:
    • Protects the hose tube from abrasion.
    • Allows the hose to slide smoothly across rough surfaces.
    • Makes handling safer and more efficient.
  4. Cold-Flex Materials
    These hoses stay flexible even in freezing conditions – a crucial advantage for outdoor operations across Australia.
  5. Convoluted Outer Cover
    Provides enhanced flexibility, making the hose easier to bend around corners and obstacles without compromising strength.

Applications of Green Tigerflex® Hose

Fox Global’s Green Tigerflex® hose assemblies are widely trusted across industries including:

  • Liquid Waste Transport – Septic tankers, grease trap servicing, waste management.
  • Wastewater & Sewage Treatment – Effluent, sludge, and greywater handling.
  • Mining & Dewatering – Pumping slurry and water from mining pits.
  • Construction – Site dewatering, tunnelling, and stormwater management.
  • Chemical Transport – Suitable for many aggressive chemicals (depending on compatibility).

Custom Hose Assemblies with Stainless Steel Camlocks

For this Brisbane project, Fox Global supplied 10-meter hose assemblies fitted with stainless steel camlocks.

Why stainless steel?

  • Corrosion resistance – essential for harsh wastewater and chemical environments.
  • Durability – withstands constant coupling and decoupling.
  • Compatibility – ideal for aggressive or corrosive media.

By crimping the hoses with stainless steel camlocks, Fox Global delivered a ready-to-use solution. This eliminated the need for onsite fitting or assembly, helping our client get operational immediately.
