What a dry cement / fly ash suction & discharge hose, 10 bar is

A dry cement and fly ash suction and discharge hose moves abrasive powders and slurries at cement plants and construction sites. The duty is abrasion, not pressure: fly ash and cement scour a wall from the inside at velocity.

It is reinforced with high-tensile synthetic plies and a helix wire, so it holds its bore under vacuum and works on the suction side as well as discharge.

Working pressure is 10 BAR across every bore.

How it is built

Tube

Smooth black natural rubber blend, highly abrasion resistant. Smooth rather than textured, so powder does not key into the wall and accelerate wear.

Reinforcement

High-tensile synthetic plies with a helix wire. The helix is what keeps the bore open under vacuum — this is a genuine suction hose, not discharge-only.

Cover

Black SBR rubber, weather and abrasion resistant, with a corrugated wrap-finish cover that lets the hose flex without kinking.

Transcription note

Transcription note: the source table prints two working-pressure columns, both headed ″bar″ (values 10 and 15). Both columns are reproduced exactly as printed. Do not publish an interpreted unit for the second column without confirming with the company.

Reading the pressure table on this product

The catalogue prints two working-pressure columns for this hose and heads both of them "bar", with different values. Its own transcription note warns against publishing an interpreted unit for the second column.

So we publish the first working-pressure column, the bore and the maximum coil length, and we withhold the second column rather than guess whether it is a test figure, a burst figure or a different unit. Test pressure and burst pressure are given by the catalogue as multiples of working pressure, and those ratios are stated below as printed. If you need the second figure resolved, we will confirm it from the works.

Couplings and fittings

Bulk material hose is normally supplied with ends fitted, and the catalogue states that ends come with or without connections to requirement. On abrasive powder duty a factory-fitted end outlasts a field-clamped one, because the joint is where wear concentrates.

Tell us the bore, the coil length and the connection type and we will supply it made up. Customised sizes are catalogued as available — ask.

What this hose is not for

Published because the wrong hose is a failure in service, not an inconvenience. If your duty is in this list, say so and we will route you to the right product or tell you plainly that we do not have it.

Second working-pressure column withheld.

The catalogue prints two columns both headed "bar". We publish the first and withhold the second rather than publish an interpreted unit, on the catalogue's own instruction.

Not a high-pressure hose.

This is a 10 BAR bulk-material series. Its job is surviving abrasion, not holding pressure.

Not for hot media.

The published service band is ambient-range only. Cement and ash leaving a process hot are a different specification — tell us the temperature.

Not an oil or chemical hose.

A natural rubber blend built for abrasion is not a chemical lining. Tell us the medium.

Use in the United Arab Emirates

The UAE buys hose through two different doors. Dubai and Jebel Ali are a distribution hub, where stock on a shelf in a free zone competes with a factory in India. Abu Dhabi is heavy industry: downstream refining at Ruwais is among the largest single-site refining complexes anywhere, and Musaffah is a working industrial district of machining, offshore fabrication and shipyards with a long private waterfront. Steam and blast hose consumption follows the second, while purchasing often happens through the first.

Bulk powder demand in the UAE is cement and aggregate led, with plants and terminals across the emirates plus construction batching on site.

Downstream refining

Steam tracing and cleaning duty on the Ruwais refining and petrochemical complex.

Shipyards and offshore

Hull and structure blasting at the Musaffah yards and the Dubai maritime cluster.

Metals and smelting

Surface preparation and plant steam across the Abu Dhabi industrial zones.

Oil and gas fabrication

Pipe and vessel blasting in the fabrication yards serving offshore work.

Free-zone distribution

Coil stock into Jebel Ali and Khalifa Port for onward regional supply.

Construction and cement

Structural blasting and steam service in the Northern Emirates industrial belt.

Shipping to the UAE

We ship from Nhava Sheva (JNPT) and Mundra on FOB, CIF and CFR terms. Transit below is time from sailing, not from order — add production time, which we confirm on the quotation.

  • Jebel Ali, Dubaiex Nhava Sheva. 4 to 10 days ex Mundra4 to 8 days
  • Khor Fakkan3 to 9 days
  • Khalifa Port, Abu Dhabi4 to 10 days

These ranges are working figures for planning. They are confirmed against the sailing schedule at the time of quotation.

We also ship to Port Khalid, Sharjah, Port of Fujairah, Ras Al Khaimah. We do not publish a transit range for those lanes because we do not have a figure we can stand behind, so transit is confirmed at the time of quotation.

Documents and conformity

Stated plainly rather than implied, because this is what most export enquiries actually turn on.

  • Commercial invoice
  • Packing list
  • Certificate of origin
  • Bill of lading
  • Test certificates

What we do and do not certify

UAE conformity requirements are administered by the Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology. ECAS and EQM apply to product categories on the regulated list, and industrial rubber hose was not among the categories in the guidance we have seen. Confirm your own position with your customs broker rather than relying on this page. We supply the consignment document set below and batch test reports; we hold no UAE conformity certificate and do not claim one.

Getting a quotation for the UAE

Send the duty, not just the part number

Bore, working pressure at the hose, medium and temperature. Those four decide the grade.

Name the delivery port

Jebel Ali, Dubai or whichever port you clear through. We quote FOB and CIF side by side so you can compare against a local stockist honestly.

Tell us the documentation you need

Batch test certificates or a specific certificate of origin format. Asking at quotation stage is free; asking after dispatch is not.

Questions about dry cement / fly ash suction & discharge hose, 10 bar in the UAE

What pressure does the dry cement / fly ash suction & discharge hose, 10 bar take?

Working pressure is 10 BAR across every bore.

What sizes are available?

10 sizes, from 2″ to 14″. Every size is listed individually in the specification table above, with the figures your fitting has to match.

What is the service temperature range?

−30 C to +70 C, as printed in the catalogue. We publish no figure outside that band, so if your duty runs hotter or colder, tell us before ordering rather than after.

Is it BIS certified?

This grade is built to the catalogue specification shown above. It carries no BIS licence and we do not describe it as certified, compliant or conforming.

Do you supply to the UAE?

Yes. We ship from Nhava Sheva (JNPT) and Mundra on FOB, CIF and CFR terms, with Jebel Ali, Dubai typically 4 to 8 days from sailing. Transit ranges for the other UAE lanes we serve are in the shipping section above.

What documents come with the shipment?

Commercial invoice, Packing list, Certificate of origin, Bill of lading, Test certificates. Conformity certification required by the UAE scheme sits with the importer of record; we hold no UAE conformity certificate and do not claim one.

Can you fit couplings before dispatch?

Yes. Tell us the bore, the fitting standard you work to and the assembly length, and we supply the hose made up rather than loose. Size the fitting to the hose's outside diameter, which is published for every bore above.

What is the HS code?

We do not publish one, because classification is the importer's declaration and an error at your border is your cost rather than ours. Our export desk states the code we invoice under on the quotation so your broker can confirm it against the current UAE tariff schedule.

What length is supplied?

The catalogue prints a coil length for this grade: 20, 15, 12, 10 m. That is unusual — most grades in the range have no published standard length, so where one exists we state it.

How do I get a quotation?

Send the bore, quantity, fitting requirement and delivery port. WhatsApp is the fastest route. A quotation with an FOB and a CIF figure and a transit range for your port comes back the same working day in most cases.

Can it be used on the suction side?

Yes. The reinforcement includes a helix wire, so the hose holds its bore under vacuum. It is catalogued for suction and discharge of fly ash, dry cement, wet slurry and other abrasive media.

Why are two pressure columns shown in the catalogue?

Because the source table prints two columns and heads both of them "bar", with different values. The catalogue's own transcription note says not to publish an interpreted unit for the second, so we publish the first and withhold the second. We would rather show you one figure we can stand behind than two we cannot.

What are the test and burst pressures?

The catalogue states them as multiples of working pressure rather than as absolute numbers, and they are reproduced that way in the specification section above. We do not convert them into figures, because the catalogue did not.

Can you make a size that is not in the table?

The catalogue lists a customised option alongside the standard sizes, so yes in principle. Send the bore, length and connection requirement and we will confirm what the works can do.
