Let's Talk Welcome to Taipan
The Taipan story traces back 30 years to a time when brothers Tim and Allan Sandilands ran a mobile hydraulic hose repair service in Queensland called Mobile HoseFixers.
While the business was successful and grew rapidly, in 2002 its supply of hydraulic hose was disrupted. Enterprising by nature, the brothers responded by establishing Queensland Hose & Fittings Pty Ltd and embarking on a multi-year mission to establish a reliable source of hose, hose tails and adaptors suitable for Australia’s harsh conditions. They explored local manufacturing as well as the creation of an international supply chain using world-class third party manufacturers.

Introducing the Taipan Xtreme, a hydraulic hose series that has been meticulously developed for over 20 years to offer versatility and to withstand the most challenging conditions found in Australia. This premium line of hoses from Taipan is designed to deliver exceptional performance.
Product Ranges
At Taipan, in addition to testing and certifying individual products, we also test entire matched systems comprising hose fitted with appropriate hose tails using the specified crimp dimensions. Using hose and hose tails that have been tested together meets MDG41 guidelines, lowers the risk of failure and ensures that your hydraulic machinery is equipped to perform, dependably.
Taipan has a comprehensive range of hose incorporating additional variants such as high temperature hose, half bend radius hose, tough cover hose and jacking hose.
