Trident 3/8-Inch Clear 50-Foot Reinforced PVC Hose

With a clear wall and red-and-blue tracer threads, this Trident reinforced PVC hose is easy to identify in a boat’s freshwater system. Its 3/8-inch inside diameter is suited to smaller potable-water connections where an unreinforced vinyl tube may be inadequate. The PVC compound is described as FDA-grade and does not impart a noticeable taste or odor to drinking water.

Nylon reinforcement gives the 162-series tubing the strength needed for pressurized service. Trident specifies a 175 psi working rating with an operating range from 20°F to 150°F. Because the wall is transparent, the red and blue tracers remain visible along the run rather than being hidden under an opaque jacket. This hose is not recommended for below-waterline through-hull connections, a meaningful limitation when selecting marine plumbing materials.

It comes in a 50-foot boxed length for cut-to-fit installation. The small bore works for the fittings and flow demands that call for a true 3/8-inch inside diameter. Keep the line supported and away from sharp edges as it passes behind lockers or under sinks. Browse other reinforced tubing in our marine water and bilge hose selection.
