Orange silicone hose SCHAERER Spare Parts 3370100718

A flexible silicone hose carries hot water, steam or milk between the fixed lines of a professional beverage machine and the moving parts that dispense the drink. The bore size of 4 mm inside an 8 mm outer wall gives a balance: narrow enough to keep fluid velocity high and prevent heat loss, yet wide enough to avoid pressure drop that would slow the flow. Silicone is chosen for its resistance to heat and to the cleaning chemicals used in commercial kitchens; it does not absorb flavours or harbour bacteria, so each drink tastes as intended and the machine stays hygienic.

The operator connects one end to the machine's rigid pipework and the other to the wand, tap or valve that delivers the liquid. The hose bends around corners and follows the movement of the dispensing arm without kinking or collapsing, so the flow remains steady. When the machine is cleaned, the hose is disconnected, flushed with water and, if the programme requires, sanitised with a food-safe solution. Its smooth inner surface and non-porous material prevent scale or milk residue from clinging, making the cleaning cycle quicker and more effective.

This hose is manufactured in bright orange silicone, a colour that stands out against the metal and plastic of the machine. The colour helps staff identify the correct line quickly and reduces the risk of cross-contamination between water, steam and milk circuits. It is a genuine SCHAERER spare part, designed to fit the exact dimensions and connection types used in SCHAERER coffee and vending machines.

In a working kitchen, the hose is part of the fluid path that must remain sealed and free from leaks. Its flexibility and heat resistance allow it to operate continuously without hardening or cracking, while the smooth bore ensures that the flow rate matches the machine's design specifications. The hose is listed in the beverage-equipment section of the catalogue, under spare parts for coffee machines.
