ABSTRACT:
Flexible hose or tube comprises a hose body and a plurality of ribs extending radially outwardly from the outer periphery of the hose body. The ribs are of annular shape and are axially spaced with respect to each other. The hose body wall is of relatively small thickness as compared to the thickness of the ribs. The hose may be integrally made from a thermoplastic caoutschuc or rubber and exhibits a high degree of flexibility due to its relative softness, while the shape and structure of the ribs provide a high degree of resistance against lateral bending or buckling of the tube.
