Flexible food-grade hose for cooled irrigation and dispensing

Crystal PVC tube for water, cooled irrigation and beverage dispensing

The Crystal PVC tube is a highly flexible, transparent food-grade hose, especially useful for cooling water irrigation, conveying liquids at room temperature and installations where the available space is limited. At Install Beer it is offered in 7x10 mm, 8x12 mm and 12x16 mm sizes, sold by the metre with a standard 50-metre coil.

Single-layer tube High flexibility High transparency Not compatible with push-fit connection

What is Crystal PVC tube?

It is a single-layer PVC hose designed for water applications, cooled irrigation and liquid transfer in dispensing systems. Install Beer’s current data sheet presents it as a very flexible solution, resistant to abrasion and wear, especially recommended for tight spaces and runs where a tight bend is needed without collapsing.

When to choose this tube

  • When you need a very flexible hose for cooling water irrigation.
  • When you want quick visual inspection thanks to its transparency.
  • When the installation runs in tight spaces or with sharp bends.
  • When you’re looking for a simple solution for drinking water or cooling water.

Frequently asked product questions

Is this product compatible with my setup?

It depends on the type of connector/head, threads, and tube diameter. If you provide us with your configuration or send us a photo, we can confirm compatibility.

What measurements should I check before buying?

Thread type, inner/outer tube diameter, fitting type (quick-connect/barb/threaded), and whether it’s for beer, gas, or water line.

Does it include gaskets, clamps, or the necessary accessories?

The description specifies what is included. If you need additional seals or accessories, we’ll recommend compatible options.

What material is it made of and what use is it recommended for?

The material (stainless steel, brass, etc.) is designed for food-grade and dispensing use. If you’re going to use it with another beverage or under special conditions, we’ll advise you.

Is it easy to install? What tools do I need?

It’s usually a straightforward installation, but we recommend a clean cut on the tubing, proper tightening, and leak testing. We’ll indicate the method according to the type of connection.

How do I know if the thread or fitting is the right one?

The key is to identify your system’s thread standard and connection type. If you’re unsure, send us a photo of the current part and we’ll help you choose.

What should I do if I have leaks after assembling it?

It’s usually due to a worn gasket, incorrect measurement, poorly cut tubing, or insufficient sealing. We’ll help you diagnose and fix it.

Does this component affect foam or serving flow rate?

Yes, some components affect flow and stability. If you’re having issues with foam or flow rate, we’ll help you balance pressure, temperature, and line.
