    Rubber Hose Sponge Cleaning Ball (30mm)

    Rubber Hose Sponge Cleaning Ball (30mm) are used to clean cementitious products out of rubber delivery hoses. Rubber Hose Sponge Cleaning Balls are commonly used when machines have been used to pump screeds, grouts, plasters, renders and monocouche. The 30mm Sponge Balls are used for 25mm rendering whip hose or delivery hose on smaller electric machines such as the DropPro 8P and Mixpro 28. The sponges are compressed to fit through the hoses and then expand upon contact with water or other cleaning agents, providing thorough and effective cleaning. The sponge ball is typically made of a soft material, such as polyurethane foam, that can absorb water and soap to help loosen dirt and grime. The sponge material provides a gentle scrubbing action, which is effective in removing stubborn build-ups of dirt and grime, without damaging the hose or pipe. The rubber hose sponge cleaning ball is a versatile and cost-effective tool that can help improve the performance and longevity of hoses and other fluid transfer systems.    

    Frequently asked questions

    The spray machines in this category are designed for EWI applications and can handle a wide range of render and basecoat blends, including lime-based, cementitious, acrylic, insulating, and flexible renders. This versatility makes them suitable for most façade finishes used in external wall insulation systems.

    Spray machines offer significant benefits:

    • Efficiency: Far quicker coverage over large areas, reducing project time.

    • Consistency: Delivers even, uniform layers and minimises patchiness from manual work.

    • Labour savings & safety: Requires fewer workers, reduces strain and allows operators to spray from a distance, lowering the risk of falls or repetitive strain.

    Yes. To achieve the best results, operators should be trained in:

    • Using correct machine settings and perfecting spray technique (e.g. spraying in small circles for uniform coverage).

    • Proper nozzle and hopper maintenance to avoid clogs, e.g. tip-cleaning routines and using hopper liners.

    Good maintenance helps avoid blockages and performance issues. Industry tips include:

    • Fitting a bin-bag liner in the hopper to collect leftover material for easy disposal.

    • Purging or spraying into a bucket at the start to clear clumpy material.

    • Avoiding long pauses during spraying to prevent material drying and clogging within the nozzle.

    • Scale of work: Machines are ideal for large façades or repeated use; not cost-effective for small patches.

    • Budget: Upfront cost is significant—not just the machine, but also ongoing maintenance.

    • Training requirement: Long-term savings and quality depend on experienced operators, so factor in training costs.
