Picatu 2 in x 50 ft Discharge & 2 in x 20 ft Suction Pump Hose Kit — Blue/Green, Aluminum Camlock & Steel Strainer

Picatu’s kit pairs a 2" x 50' blue PVC discharge hose with a 2" x 20' green PVC suction hose, both fitted with aluminum cam-and-groove couplings and a steel round strainer for heavy-duty pumping and backwash tasks.

This pump hose kit bundles purpose-built hoses and hardware to move water reliably from pools, ponds, construction sites, and irrigation systems. Built with three-layer PVC and reinforced polyester yarn, the hoses resist abrasion, kinking, and twisting while offering rated working pressures suitable for many portable pumps. Included aluminum and brass cam fittings, stainless steel clamps, and a steel strainer make connections fast and corrosion-resistant for outdoor use.

How durable are these hoses for regular pumping and backwash jobs?

The Picatu hoses use a three-layer PVC construction with a polyester reinforcement layer that reduces the risk of leaks, punctures, and collapse under suction. Working pressures are specified for each hose, and fittings are installed with stainless clamps to maintain seal integrity under repeated use.

• Blue discharge hose: 2" ID, 50 ft length, 90 PSI working pressure.
• Green suction hose: 2" ID, 20 ft length, 120 PSI working pressure.
• 3-layer PVC body with polyester yarn reinforcement for tear resistance.
• Stainless steel punch-lock clamps secure fittings to prevent leaks.

What fittings and accessories come with the kit and why do they matter?

The kit arrives with aluminum female Type C cam couplers, aluminum male Type E and KC connectors, a cam-and-groove adapter, and a steel round strainer to protect pumps from debris. These mating pieces speed up hookups and create durable, low-leak joints suitable for outdoor, wet environments.

• Aluminum Type C female coupler with brass cam levers for quick connections.
• Aluminum male Type E and KC connectors for secure mating to pumps and pipes.
• Cam & groove adapter included for versatile pump compatibility.
• Steel round strainer prevents large debris from entering the pump intake.

Can I use these hoses with pool systems, irrigation, or construction drainage?

Yes — the hoses are intended for a variety of drainage and transfer tasks where a portable pump is used. Their materials and pressure ratings make them suitable for above-ground and inground pool backwash, agricultural irrigation runs, temporary site dewatering, and general factory or construction drainage.

• Compatible with above-ground and inground pool backwash and drain setups.
• Suitable for short-term irrigation lines and moving water on job sites.
• Steel strainer helps protect pumps when used in debris-prone environments.
• Quick camlock fittings speed setup and breakdown during seasonal work.

How do I attach, store, and maintain these hoses for longer life?

Attach fittings with the stainless clamps already installed and hand-tighten cam levers for secure seals. After use, drain, rinse, and coil hoses loosely out of direct sunlight; store in a dry, shaded area to minimize UV degradation and folding stress.

• Ensure clamps are tight and cam levers fully engaged before pumping.
• Flush hoses after use to remove sediment and chemicals, then drain fully.
• Coil without tight kinks and store indoors or under cover to protect from UV.
• Inspect fittings and clamps periodically and replace if corroded or damaged.

Who is this for: This Picatu kit is made for pool owners, landscapers, contractors, and farmers who need a reliable, portable hose set for moving water and protecting pumps. It fits users who want quick camlock hookups, corrosion-resistant hardware, and a combination of discharge and suction lengths for common pump tasks. If you need dependable hoses and basic intake protection for seasonal or temporary water transfer, this kit provides a ready-to-use solution.
