Trident 2-1/2-Inch Ocean-Flex Hose Sold by the Foot

This Trident Ocean-Flex hose is sold by the foot, allowing a custom-length purchase for a 2-1/2-inch marine plumbing connection. The larger bore is useful in systems where the plumbing specification calls for substantial fluid flow. Its multipurpose ratings cover applications such as fuel transfer and venting, coolant, wet exhaust, bilge discharge, drains, and sanitation.

A black nitrile tube and matching cover surround multiple textile reinforcement spirals and a dual steel-wire helix. That construction is intended to resist fuel, heat, cold, ozone, and flexing without easily flattening. Trident lists a temperature range from -20°F to 212°F for the Ocean-Flex series. The manufacturer also cites marine standards including USCG Type A1 and SAE J1527, with application-specific approval requirements remaining important.

Buying by the foot avoids taking home an entire boxed coil when only a shorter section is needed. Measure the full run before ordering, including enough allowance for routing and connections. Use the correct clamps and fittings for the system because a marine fuel connection has different requirements from an ordinary water drain.
