We offer high-pressure hoses designed for paint sprayers. Thermoplastic hoses are used in power hydraulics and all types of painting applications. The products offered are extremely lightweight, durable, and of the highest quality.
Paint sprayer hoses flexible high-pressure hoses for spray painting
Paint sprayer hoses (Airless painting hoses / thermoplastic hoses) are highly specialized, high-pressure flexible hoses designed for operation in hydrodynamic spray systems. They are used to supply facade paints, enamels, varnishes, primers, resins, stains, and solvents under high pressure directly from the unit's pump to the spray gun. These hoses are a key piece of equipment for professional paint sprayers from renowned manufacturers such as Graco, Wagner, Titan, Storch, Wiwa, or Campbell. They feature an inner tube made of polyamide (PA), which exhibits absolute chemical resistance to aggressive solvents, xylene, toluene, esters, and thinners. The use of a single or double steel wire braid (1SN / 2SN / R2) or textile braids (SAE 100 R7) guarantees resistance to working pressure reaching 250–390 bar, eliminating the risk of wall swelling and ensuring a stable spray stream.
Application and technical characteristics of painting hoses
The construction of thermoplastic spray painting hoses has been optimized for maximum ergonomics and operator safety of the gun. Low weight and high flexibility make it easier to operate the hose on scaffolding, ladders, and indoors.
- Acid- and solvent-resistant polyamide tube: The inner core made of smooth polyamide (PA12) prevents paint from sticking, facilitates system flushing, and ensures full resistance to aggressive organic and aqueous solvents.
- Steel or textile braided reinforcement: High-strength steel wire braids (1SN / 2SN) provide excellent resistance to pulse pressures (250–390 bar) and protect the hose from flattening under load.
- Resistant outer cover: The outer sheath made of polyurethane (PUR) or abrasion-resistant synthetic rubber protects the hose from abrasion against concrete, scaffolding, and sharp edges, as well as from UV radiation and ozone.
- Antistatic conductivity: The hose construction dissipates electrostatic charges generated during dynamic paint flow, preventing spark jumping and electric shock.
- Popular diameters and connections: Available nominal sizes DN 04 (3/16"), DN 06 (1/4"), and DN 10 (3/8") offered in lengths with ready-made fittings (e.g., NPSM 1/4" or 3/8" threads with protective springs) or in rolls for self-crimping.
Why choose paint sprayer hoses at the HYDRON store?
The wide range of painting and thermoplastic hoses available at the HYDRON store includes proven solutions tested in the toughest construction and industrial conditions. The smooth inner surface of polyamide guarantees minimal flow resistance, which translates into unit energy savings and ideal paint atomization without air bubbles. The durable bond of the steel braid with the polyurethane cover excludes hose delamination during repeated bending. For complete equipment and service of the painting station, we recommend matching accessories from our range, such as flexible industrial hoses, matching hose fittings, professional hose crimping machines and reliable hydraulic quick couplers.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What distinguishes a paint sprayer hose from a regular hydraulic hose?
A painting hose has an inner tube made of acid- and solvent-resistant polyamide (PA12). Standard NBR rubber used in hydraulic hoses swells and is destroyed by paint thinners and xylene.
What working pressure must an Airless spray painting hose withstand?
Airless type paint sprayers operate under very high pressure. Standard painting hoses are designed for working pressure from 228 bar up to 390 bar, which guarantees full work safety and resistance to pressure spikes from the pump.
Which painting hose diameters are the most popular?
The most popular size for spray guns is the DN 06 (1/4") hose and flexible end attachments DN 04 (3/16"), which do not strain the plasterer's/painter's hand. For transferring thick paints and putties over longer distances, DN 10 (3/8") hoses are used.
Are painting hoses available with ready-made crimped ends?
Yes. The HYDRON offer includes both ready-made hoses crimped into standard painting threads (e.g., 1/4" NPSM or 3/8" NPSM with swivel nuts and protective springs) as well as hoses sold by the meter for individual assembly.
