Product details

3/4″ (19mm) Tricoflex professional quality yellow hose. Top quality multi-layer heavy duty Tricoflex hose provides flexibility and durability, with built-in kink resistance. Bright yellow to reduce trip hazards in commercial situations. Manufactured by Tricoflex in the Champagne region of France, Tricoflex is widely used as a professional-quality hose in commercial horticulture, including garden centres, nurseries, market gardens, farms and vegetable-growing businesses. The 19mm Tricoflex hose uses the company’s Non-torsion technology for superior performance.

Tricoflex hose construction

Tricoflex has a multi-layer construction incorporating woven polyester reinforcement and a smooth two-layer inner core. This makes the hose highly flexible and easy to handle, while providing excellent resistance to repeated bending, crushing and pulling. The smooth internal lining helps maintain an even water flow, while the yellow PVC outer covering protects the hose against abrasion and UV exposure.

Why choose a 19mm hose pipe?

A 19mm hose has a considerably larger internal bore than a standard 12.5mm garden hose. This reduces friction and pressure loss, particularly over longer hose runs or where higher water flow is needed. It is a popular choice for nurseries, garden centres, landscapers, farms and larger gardens, and is particularly useful when supplying professional watering lances or sprinklers.

Which Tricoflex hose size do I need?

Hose size Best suited to Typical applications
12.5mm / 1/2″ Shorter runs and lighter handling Domestic gardens and general watering
19mm / 3/4″ Longer runs and higher water flow Nurseries, landscaping, farms and sprinklers
25mm / 1″ Very high-flow applications Sports pitches, equestrian sites and large sprinklers

Benefits of 19mm (3/4″) hose

19mm diameter Tricoflex hose can handle much higher flows than 12mm (1/2″) garden hose. This results in greatly reduced pressure losses on longer runs. 19mm (3/4″) hose is the standard size hose used in commercial horticulture. The hose can be mounted on a hose reel for portability and can be used with sprinklers or watering lances. Tricoflex can be connected using either Geka style hose connectors or hose union fittings for permanent threaded connections.

Frequently asked questions

Is 19mm hose better than a standard garden hose?

A 19mm (3/4″) hose has a larger internal bore than a standard 12.5mm (1/2″) garden hose, allowing it to carry more water with less pressure loss. This makes it particularly useful for longer hose runs, professional watering, nurseries, farms, landscaping and supplying sprinklers. However, it is heavier and requires fittings specifically designed for 19mm hose, so a smaller hose may be more convenient for light domestic use.

What fittings fit 19mm Tricoflex hose?

This hose requires fittings designed for 19mm or 3/4″ hose. It can be used with suitable hose-tail connectors, Geka-type couplings, hose joiners, tap connectors and watering equipment. Always check that the hose-tail diameter is 19mm, as fittings intended for standard 12.5mm garden hose will not fit correctly.

If Hozelock / Gardena type snap connectors are needed, there is a Quick connector for 3/4″ hose, but the quick connector design does restrict the flow of the hose.

Can 19mm Tricoflex hose be fitted to a hose reel or trolley?

Travelling Sprinkler Club Watering PackageYes. The hose can be fitted to a suitably sized professional hose reel or trolley designed to accept 19mm hose. Bear in mind that 19mm hose is heavier and takes up more space than standard garden hose, particularly in 50m or 100m lengths, so it is important to check the reel’s hose capacity before ordering.

Is 19mm Tricoflex hose suitable for sprinklers?

Yes. Its larger internal diameter helps maintain water flow and reduce pressure loss, making it a good choice for supplying garden, landscape and professional sprinklers. The actual sprinkler performance will still depend on the available water pressure, flow rate, hose length and the requirements of the sprinkler being used.

Can Tricoflex hose be left outside?

Tricoflex hose has a durable outer covering designed to resist abrasion, weathering and UV exposure, making it suitable for regular outdoor use. To maximise its lifespan, we recommend draining the hose after use, avoiding prolonged exposure to freezing conditions and storing it neatly on a reel or trolley when it is not required.

Which hose length should I choose?

Choose a length that comfortably reaches the furthest watering point without leaving a large amount of unnecessary hose. A 25m coil is suitable for shorter runs and smaller sites, while 50m is a popular choice for general professional use. A 100m coil is useful for larger nurseries, farms and commercial sites, although the additional weight makes a suitable hose trolley particularly important.
