Suction Hose GEKO 1" (25 mm) wire-reinforced 5 m — garden and irrigation use

GEKO suction hose 1" (25 mm), wire-reinforced and 5 m long, is designed for water transfer, pumping and garden irrigation. The hose combines a flexible outer jacket with an embedded steel wire helix that maintains shape under vacuum and prevents collapse during suction. Its construction makes it suitable for temporary and seasonal use with portable pumps, wells and suction lines for drainage, irrigation and other fluid handling tasks around the home and garden.

Advantages

The wire-reinforced design provides stable suction capability while retaining flexibility for easy routing and storage. A smooth inner bore reduces friction and helps maintain consistent flow rates. The hose is lightweight yet durable for repeated installation and removal, and its 5 m length offers a balance between reach and manageability for common garden and pumping setups.

Suitable for

• Temporary suction lines for portable water pumps
• Garden irrigation and seasonal watering
• Drainage of ponds, flooded areas or oversaturated beds
• Well water extraction for non-permanent installations
• Transferring water between containers and tanks

Key specifications

• Inner diameter: 1" (25 mm)
• Length: 5 m
• Reinforcement: steel wire helix embedded in hose wall
• Material: flexible plastic outer jacket with smooth inner bore
• Function: suction and transfer of water and similar non-aggressive fluids
• Operating characteristic: collapse-resistant under vacuum for suction applications

How to use

Connect the GEKO suction hose to the pump inlet or suction fitting, ensuring a secure clamp or coupling to prevent air ingress. Lay the hose so the wire-reinforced section remains free of sharp bends that could restrict flow; the hose can be coiled for storage. Prime the pump if required, start the pump and monitor the hose and fittings for leaks or kinks during operation. After use, drain remaining water, rinse if necessary, and store the hose coiled in a dry place away from direct sunlight and sharp objects.

Usage recommendations

Use the hose only for water and compatible non-aggressive fluids. Avoid continuous submerged use beyond the intended application and do not expose the hose to temperatures or chemicals outside the manufacturer's guidance. Regularly inspect the wire helix and fittings for damage and replace the hose if deformation or leaks appear.
