Avagard Hoses
Avagard Hoses: Engineered Lighter, Built Tougher
When it comes to dependable hoses for the shop, garage, or job site, Avagard has carved out a distinct reputation by rethinking what a rubber hose can be. Manufactured by RMX Industries, Avagard positions itself as the evolution of the traditional “red rubber” hose — the kind that has long been a staple in automotive bays and industrial facilities. The key difference? Avagard hoses are 20% lighter than traditional rubber hoses while simultaneously being more flexible and stronger, making them easier to wrangle during long work sessions without sacrificing durability.
Browse the full selection of hoses and you’ll find that Avagard covers a wide range of applications across multiple product lines, each engineered for a specific set of demands.
Avagard Hose Product Lines
- Rubber Air Hoses — The flagship line built from 100% rubber. These hoses exceed RMA IP2 standards and feature high-strength polyester woven braided reinforcement, enabling a working pressure of up to 300 PSI with a 4:1 safety factor. Temperature flexibility spans from -40°F to +190°F, making them equally capable in frigid winter conditions and scorching summer heat.
- Hybrid Polymer Air Hoses — Blending rubber and PVC polymers into a single construction, the Hybrid line pushes weight savings even further — up to 40% lighter than conventional rubber hoses. The hybrid composition resists kinking and tangling under pressure, delivers high airflow, and maintains ozone and UV resistance for a long service life.
- Polyurethane (PU) Recoil & Braided Air Hoses — Built from 100% polyurethane, these hoses are non-marking, lightweight, and offer outstanding cold-weather flexibility, outperforming nylon hoses in head-to-head comparisons. They carry a 300 PSI working pressure with a 4:1 safety factor and are compatible with field-repair and quick-connect fittings for added convenience.
- PVC Air Hoses — A budget-friendly option that still delivers 300 PSI working pressure, UV and ozone resistance, and kink resistance — often in a bright, high-visibility color to reduce tripping hazards on busy work sites.
- Rubber Water Hoses — Avagard extends its engineering philosophy to water hoses as well. The 100% rubber water hose handles hot water up to 212°F and cold temperatures down to -50°F, with a 500 PSI burst rating and high-strength polyester braided reinforcement to prevent elongation.
Shared Features Across the Avagard Hose Lineup
Regardless of material or application, Avagard hoses share several hallmark design features. Every hose comes fitted with solid brass end fittings that resist corrosion better than steel and outperform aluminum in durability. The signature four-finger grip bend restrictor reduces bending stress at the hose-coupling junction, preventing kinks and significantly extending the working life of the hose. This detail alone sets Avagard apart from many competitors at a similar price point.
Perhaps the most confidence-inspiring element of the Avagard lineup is the industry-leading 5-year warranty on rubber air hoses — a commitment that reflects genuine confidence in the product’s construction and long-term performance.
Whether you’re running pneumatic tools in an automotive repair shop, inflating tires on a construction site, or routing compressed air through a DIY workshop, Avagard offers a hose built for the task — at a mid-range price that doesn’t force you to compromise on quality.
