Bespoke One Off Custom Silicone Hoses

 

We specialize in custom manufacturing of silicone hoses and original equipment hoses. Unfortunately we are unable to offer this service on one off hoses, the minimum order is 50 pieces. This is because any silicone hoses requires bespoke/custom tooling to be manufactured, which in itself can cost anywhere between £200 - £2000 depending on the complexity. If you require a colour that is different to our normal range of blue, black or red, there shall be additional cost as we must also purchase pigments, mix and create a workable material.

The tooling cost is charged at cost price, the pricing of the actual hose completely depends on quantities, with larger quantities benefiting of economies of scale. We are unable to quote or provide estimate from verbal descriptions or simple pictures of parts. Please send us details of the hose you require in the form of CAD drawings, templates or the originals. These must include:

  • Lengths of the hose/different sections
  • The angles measured in degrees
  • Wall thicknesses
  • Internal and external diameters
  • Material
  • Precise colour (Please provide either Hex or RGB Value
 

Modifying Existing Hoses

Our universal hoses tools are constructed to allow us in some cases to modify our elbow or reducer tools to suit your requirements. For example making a silicone elbow with longer, or unequal lengths and unusual diameters.

The cost of altering existing tooling costs £100 inc VAT. The cost of the hose would be based on the normal retail price of a similar hose of same shape/length. We are able to adapt all of our existing tooling but can't alter the bend radius or multi angled hoses, anything like this would would require dedicated tooling.

The minimum order for these hoses is 50 pieces, these are an excellent alternative considering the cost price of a new tooling cost cost can be in excess of £200+.

Please Note - The maximum leg length available is 200mm long depending on the donor tool, any longer lengths would require new tooling which would therefore be more expensive to manufacture

How Its Made

In a rush? Can't wait for a custom to be made? Only want a one off?

Our extensive product range allows us to put together our hoses to create a product that would be similar to a custom hose, they may not match perfect but this method provides a great alternative that will also allow customers to have their product same day. This is mainly available for customers who are able to bring the product to us so we can see the hose in person, however if you think this can be done take a look around our site and let us know. Please note if any of our hoses have to cut for this, these make the hose non returnable.
