Description
Pre-Assembled EPDM Suction Hose for Industrial Pumping
The Tigerflex TG Green EPDM Pump Suction Hose Assembly with Male Camlock X Male Threaded Pipe Nipple is a pre-assembled, vacuum-rated industrial hose built for demanding pumping operations. Constructed from premium EPDM rubber and reinforced with Tigerflex’s Easy Slide Helix, it delivers reliable performance under continuous suction, discharge, and vacuum-assisted service.
Supplied as a ready-to-use hose assembly, this product eliminates mismatched components and field assembly errors. It is commonly used for construction dewatering, municipal pumping, wastewater transfer, bypass systems, and sewer truck support anywhere standard PVC hoses struggle with collapse, stiffness, or abrasion.
Why This Pre-Assembled EPDM Suction Hose Performs Better on Site
This EPDM suction hose assembly is engineered for the conditions crews actually face in the field:
- Cold starts in winter
- Rough ground and concrete surfaces
- Continuous suction under vacuum
- Abrasive or debris-laden fluids
- Tight setups that demand flexibility
The Tigerflex TG Green series is trusted because it solves these problems without overcomplicating one hose, properly assembled, ready to work.
Key Features – Easy Slide Helix EPDM Suction Hose Assembly
Premium EPDM Rubber Construction
Manufactured using high-quality EPDM compounds for excellent resistance to chemicals, oils, sewage, wastewater, and industrial fluids. Designed for non-potable water applications where durability matters.
Vacuum-Rated Suction Performance
Engineered for sustained suction up to 29" Hg (size dependent), helping prevent hose collapse during continuous pump or vacuum operations.
Easy Slide Helix Design
A rigid external helix protects the hose tube from cover wear and allows the hose to slide easily over pavement, gravel, and rough jobsite surfaces—reducing drag and handling fatigue.
Cold-Flex Materials
Remains flexible in sub-zero temperatures, supporting reliable winter pumping and cold-weather deployment without cracking or stiffening.
Convoluted Outer Cover
Improves overall flexibility and makes routing easier around obstacles, corners, and tight work areas.
Pre-Assembled Connections
Supplied as a complete hose assembly to reduce setup time and eliminate compatibility issues in the field.
Specifications That Matter in the Field
Series: Tigerflex TG Green – EPDM Suction Hose
Construction: EPDM rubber tube with polyethylene helix
Temperature Range:
-40°F to 160°F (-40°C to +71°C)
Actual service temperature is application dependent.

Pressure ratings shown at 68°F. Vacuum performance and flexibility vary by temperature and application.
Typical Applications & Pumping Scenarios
This EPDM pump suction hose assembly is commonly used for:
- Construction site dewatering
- Municipal sewage and wastewater pumping
- Sewer bypass and emergency pumping
- Industrial wastewater transfer
- Septic and lift station maintenance
- Trash pump and rental pump applications
- Sludge and slurry handling
- Vacuum-assisted sewer truck operations
Supplied pre-assembled with a female camlock x male threaded pipe nipple, this hose is designed for fast, secure connection to pumps and suction inlets in industrial pumping systems.
If you require custom lengths or plan to install your own fittings, a hose-only EPDM suction hose may be a better fit. This assembly is built for crews who want to deploy quickly and work without guesswork.
Supplied by Cleanflow – Trusted Industrial Hose Solutions
Cleanflow supplies genuine Tigerflex EPDM suction hose assemblies to contractors, municipalities, and industrial operators across Canada and the USA. With reliable inventory, fast fulfillment, and application support, Cleanflow helps crews get the right hose on site without delays.
For suction applications, Cleanflow also supplies round hole and square hole strainers , which thread onto the hose inlet to prevent debris from entering the pump during suction and help reduce clogging and pump damage.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes this hose assembly different from hose-only EPDM suction hose?
This product comes pre-assembled with a female camlock on one end and a male threaded pipe nipple on the other, eliminating field assembly, compatibility issues, and installation delays. Hose-only options require separate fittings and clamps.
Which strainer should I use — round hole or square hole?
Round hole strainers are ideal for general dewatering and wastewater applications.
Square hole strainers are better for trash pumps and environments with heavy debris or solids.
Why is this hose supplied with a female camlock × male pipe nipple configuration?
This hose is commonly used for suction applications where a strainer is threaded onto the hose end. The male pipe nipple allows operators to directly thread on a round hole or square hole suction strainer, which helps prevent debris from entering the pump during suction.
The female camlock provides a fast, secure connection to the pump inlet, while the threaded end supports standard strainer installation. This configuration is widely used to protect pumps and reduce clogging.
Is this hose assembly designed for suction or discharge?
It is designed primarily for suction and vacuum applications but is also suitable for standard-duty discharge use where pressure ratings allow.
Can this hose handle continuous suction?
Yes. The Tigerflex TG Green series is vacuum-rated and designed for sustained suction operations.
Is this hose suitable for cold-weather use?
Yes. The EPDM compound remains flexible in sub-zero temperatures, making it reliable for winter pumping operations.
Is this hose rated for potable water?
No. This hose is intended for non-potable water, sewage, wastewater, and industrial fluids only.
What thread type is used on the male pipe nipple?
The male pipe nipple uses standard NPT threads, compatible with most industrial and municipal piping systems.
How does EPDM compare to PVC suction hoses?
EPDM offers better chemical resistance, superior flexibility (especially in cold weather), and longer service life than standard PVC suction hoses, which can become stiff, brittle, or collapse under vacuum.
