Eaton’s industrial hose line comes from a long tradition of excellence and innovation. Boston Woven Hose & Rubber Company, founded in 1870, was among the first companies to produce a tubular rubber hose. These early pioneers in the industrial hose industry passed on their expertise from one generation to the next. At Eaton, we value the knowledge of these early innovators, so much so that in 2002, we bought the company. Our Eaton industrial hose products build upon the expertise of these early innovators in partnership with our cutting-edge technology to make us the leading authority in industrial hose.
