A plastic hose, and more particularly a pneumatic hose, is provided with at least
two electrical conductors extending along the hose body. These conductors are in
the form of strips (11 and 12) of a metallized braid of plastic material
or of natural fiber with a spacing apart on the hose body (13). Accordingly
high flexibility of the plastic hose (10) is achieved with satisfactory
electrical conductivity of the strips ensuring safety as regards breakage.
