What happens when your hose fails in the middle of a high-pressure oilfield operation? Or when your water transfer line bursts during a critical mining task? Downtime. Losses. Hazards. According to industry statistics, equipment failure in fluid transfer systems can cause losses exceeding $100,000 per hour in some industries. In environments like hydraulic fracturing, open-pit mining, and chemical processing, the choice of hose is more than just a technical decision — it can define the success or failure of your operation.
The problem is, not all hoses are built to perform in these extreme-duty applications. Many degrade quickly under pressure, abrasion, or chemical exposure. This leaves engineers, procurement managers, and site operators searching for a reliable, long-lasting hose that can withstand the harshest environments.
In this post, you'll learn why Fracflo Hose from ZYfire is engineered to outperform standard hoses. We'll explore its advanced design, real-world applications, technical specifications, and actionable tips for maximizing its lifespan. If you're seeking a durable, high-performance hose solution, this is the guide you need.
Fracflo Hose is a TPU layflat hose built using through-the-weave technology, delivering superior strength, flexibility, and abrasion resistance.
It supports working pressures up to 610 psi and burst pressures up to 1,830 psi depending on size, making it ideal for high-pressure operations.
The hose is chemical-resistant, UV-stabilized, and temperature-tolerant from -50°C to +80°C.
Suitable for oil & gas, mining, agriculture, dredging, and industrial water transfer.
Compared to standard hoses, Fracflo Hose offers longer lifespan, lower total cost of ownership, and higher operational efficiency.
Fracflo Hose is a next-generation thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) layflat hose designed for heavy-duty fluid transfer. Developed by ZYfire Hose Corporation, it's engineered specifically for use in hydraulic fracturing, mining, chemical slurry transport, and other demanding environments.
Cover and Lining: Made from ribbed or smooth TPU for toughness and flexibility.
Reinforcement Jacket: High-tenacity synthetic polyester yarn woven in a circular loom.
Bonding Method: Extrusion through-the-weave, ensuring a permanent fusion between the inner lining and outer cover.
100m (330 ft)
200m (660 ft)
300m (990 ft)
400m (1,320 ft)
-50°C to +80°C (-58°F to +176°F)
While many hoses offer basic performance, Fracflo Hose pushes the boundaries of hose engineering. Here's how it compares:
| Feature | Fracflo Hose | Standard Industrial Hose |
|---|---|---|
| Abrasion Resistance | 4000+ DIN cycles | 1000–1500 DIN cycles |
| Burst Pressure | Up to 1830 psi | 300–900 psi |
| Temperature Range | -50°C to +80°C | 0°C to 60°C |
| Reinforcement | Circular woven polyester | Braided or wrapped fabric |
| Manufacturing | Through-the-weave TPU extrusion | Glued or layered |
| UV/Oil Resistance | Excellent | Moderate |
| Lifespan | 3–5 years in heavy use | 8–12 months in harsh use |
Seamless Bonding: Eliminates the risk of delamination.
Flexible Yet Strong: Easy to coil and deploy, even in cold climates.
Customizable: Available in blue, black, green, red, and glow-line versions for night-time visibility.
Extra Outer Thickness: Designed to handle dragging across rugged terrain.
By using TPU and advanced weaving technology, Fracflo Hose far exceeds the performance of traditional rubber, PVC, or PE hoses.
Fracflo Hose is not a one-size-fits-all product — it's a multi-industry solution trusted across over 20 countries. Here's where it's making an impact:
Hydraulic fracturing water transfer
Flowback water return lines
Temporary fluid lines on drilling sites
Tailings and slurry transport
Dewatering in open-pit mines
Abrasive particle fluid lines
High-volume irrigation
Long-distance water pumping
Fertilizer and pesticide transfer
Chemical plant water lines
Cooling water transfer
Fire suppression systems
Floodwater removal
Wildfire support with layflat hoses
Temporary potable water delivery
These applications demand a hose that is not only strong but chemically resilient, temperature-tolerant, and easy to deploy.
Here's a summary of Fracflo Hose specifications by size:
| Size (inch) | Inner Diameter (mm) | Wall Thickness (mm) | Pressure (psi) | Burst Pressure (psi) | Elongation (%) | Weight Efficiency |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
