Description
Slim-line tubing is thinner and lighter than standard tubing, and a cover cut for 22 mm hangs loose and bunches on it. This cut is dimensioned for slim tubing so the sleeve follows the tube instead of sagging.
Key features
- Fits the tube, not the machine - Each cut is sized to a run length and a tube outside diameter, with a small excess so the tube can bend inside the sleeve instead of pulling the cover tight.
- Passive condensation control - The fleece slows heat loss along the tube so less moisture condenses in the low points of the run - the effect users notice as less gurgling near the mask.
- Closure you can fit in seconds - The zipper or hook-and-loop closure means the cover goes on with the tube already connected to the machine, which is how most users actually fit it.
- Machine washable - Cold gentle cycle and air dry. The sleeve keeps its pile and its colour across repeated washes, which matters for a part that is laundered regularly.
- Noise and contact comfort - It takes the plastic-on-fabric rattle out of the tube and keeps dust and pet hair off the surface it touches.

Why the diameter matters more than the length
A cover that is too wide does not stay in place: it rotates around the tube, gathers in folds and looks wrong in a product photograph, which is a common source of returns and poor reviews in this category.
This cut is made to the slim tube diameter, so the fleece sits against the tube wall and the zipper line stays straight along the run.
Insulation on a thin wall
Slim tubing has less thermal mass than standard tubing, so it loses heat to a cold room quickly. A fleece sleeve is the lowest-effort fix for condensation on a slim-tube setup.
The lighter fleece keeps the added bulk low, which suits users who move around in bed or travel with the machine.
OEM and ODM options
Available in a single-sided or double-sided fleece, with the fleece weight, zipper tape colour and length all made to your specification.
Slim-cut covers are commonly ordered as part of a two-size assortment alongside the standard 22 mm cut, in the same colourway and packaging style.
Fit notes
Measure the outside diameter of the tube at the cuff before ordering. Slim tubing is around 15 mm; standard is 22 mm, and a mixed set usually needs both cuts.
If you are unsure which cut your customer base uses, order a sample of each and compare them on the tube.

Frequently asked questions
Is this cut also available in 8 ft?
Yes. Length and diameter are independent options, so a slim 8 ft cut can be produced to the same specification. Confirm the combination with your inquiry.
Can this cover be used on standard 22 mm tubing?
It can be fitted, but it will sit loosely and gather. Use the standard 22 mm cut for that tube.
Do you offer both cuts in one carton?
Yes. Assortments with a mix of standard and slim cuts in the same colour and packaging are a standard private-label request.
Does this cover need a prescription or carry a medical claim?
No. A hose cover is a comfort accessory, not a medical device. It needs no prescription, it is commonly FSA/HSA eligible in the United States, and it makes no therapeutic claim - it does not treat sleep apnoea and it does not change therapy pressure.
What compliance documentation can you supply?
Materials can be supplied with REACH and RoHS test reports on request, and the factory operates an ISO 9001 quality system. Tell us the market you are importing into and we will confirm which documents it requires before the order is placed.

B2B buyer's guide: sourcing fleece hose covers
If you are sourcing hose covers for a DME distributor, a sleep clinic or an online therapy store, these are the points that decide whether a supply relationship works long term.
- Match the length to the run, not to the machine - The cover length has to cover the run from the outlet to the mask connector. Buying the next length up and letting it bunch shows up later as fit complaints.
- Settle the diameter before the decoration - Standard tubing is 22 mm, slim tubing around 15 mm, and heated tubing is thicker at the cuff. Getting the diameter wrong is the one error a colour programme cannot compensate for.
- Choose the closure by who fits it - A zipper suits the user who fits the cover with the tube connected; hook and loop suits programmes competing on the lowest landed cost. Both run on the same line, so the choice is a commercial one.
- Decide washability claims early - Machine washability is a real selling point and it fixes the fleece weight and the binding method, so it needs settling before sampling rather than after.
