Water Suction & Discharge Hose, 2.50 Inch ID, Up To 150.00 PSI

Cam and groove fittings are a good choice, especially aluminum or polypropylene. Combination nipples also work well, and you'll want to use crimp, swage, or preformed clamps to attach them securely.

For suction work, it’s built with a textile layer plus a single steel helical wire to help it hold its shape, and it’s rated for vacuum service up to 28.

Slurry and muddy water are exactly what this hose is built for. The tube is synthetic rubber, which holds up against abrasive material moving through it, and the cover is rated for both abrasion and weather resistance on the outside. You've got a single steel helical wire giving it structure so it won't collapse under suction. It handles up to 150 PSI and can pull 28 inches of vacuum, so it should pair up fine with most standard pump setups doing that kind of work.
