Garden hose GEKO vx1109 — 3" (approx. 76 mm) canvas fire hose, 20 m, without couplings

GEKO vx1109 — 3" (approx. 76 mm) canvas fire hose, 20 m, without couplings is a textile, parchment-style hose intended for water transfer and garden irrigation where a wide internal diameter and durability are required. The hose is supplied as a 20-metre length with a nominal 3-inch (≈76 mm) bore and does not include couplings, allowing selection of fittings appropriate to the intended application. Its woven canvas construction provides flexibility and resistance to wear for temporary water supply, irrigation, firefighting support and dewatering tasks.

Advantages

The canvas construction balances flexibility and dimensional stability, making the hose easy to handle and store while maintaining an open bore when pressurized. The wide 3" internal diameter enables higher flow rates and faster water delivery compared with narrow garden hoses. Abrasion-resistant textile surfaces reduce damage risk when the hose runs across rough ground or building sites. Supplied without couplings so users can choose compatible fittings for their equipment or connectors, ensuring correct materials and thread types for the application.

Suitable for

• Garden irrigation and large-area sprinkler systems
• Temporary water transfer between tanks, ponds or water sources
• Firefighting support and auxiliary water lines
• Construction site dewatering and temporary drainage

Key specifications

• Length: 20 metres
• Internal diameter: approximately 3 inches (≈76 mm)
• Construction: woven canvas (parchment-style) textile
• Delivered without couplings or fittings
• Primary use: water delivery, irrigation, dewatering, firefighting support

How to use

Select couplings and connectors that match the hose bore and the equipment threads before installation. Lay the hose on a clear path to minimize abrasion and avoid sharp bends that could restrict flow. Connect one end to the water source or pump and the other end to the delivery point or sprinkler system, securing couplings according to the chosen connector type. When pressurised, monitor the hose for wear, kinks or leaks and relieve pressure before disconnecting or storing. Store the dry hose in a cool, shaded place coiled without tight kinks.

Usage recommendations

Choose corrosion-resistant couplings and appropriate sealing materials for the water quality and operating pressure. For prolonged exposure to sunlight or chemicals, inspect the textile surface regularly and avoid leaving the hose under UV exposure when not in use. For firefighting or high-pressure applications, verify compatibility of selected fittings and rated pump pressures with the hose construction.
