Hose: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.80 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.08 at volume, on a typical 15-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point, not a binding quote. Your spec and quantity set the final price.

What moves the price
For hose, the drivers are board thickness, core type, surface finish, colour, edge banding, moisture resistance, material, absorbency — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Published bulk quotes show silicone hose pricing falling sharply with volume, with examples as low as US$0.04-0.08 per meter at 500-10,000+ meters and US$0.50 at 500+ pieces for custom hose listings. Realistic supplier routes are US-facing distributors for stocked hose and China OEM/ODM factories for custom-made bulk production, where diameter, ply count, temperature rating, and whether pricing is by meter or by piece move the price most. For custom-printed or specialty configurations, decoration and specification changes usually add cost, but the core price trend remains dominated by size, material grade, and order volume.
