You might be wondering which type of rubber hose to choose if you are looking for a new rubber one. Rubber chemical hoses EN856 r13 are great for many applications. This hose is suitable for a wide range of fluids, including petroleum-based, biodegradable, and water-glycol based fluids.
High pressure EN856R13 rubber chemical hoses are a great choice for industrial processes that require high temperatures and pressure. It meets EN856R13 and SAE100R13 requirements, and is compatible with most hydrocarbons as well as biodegradable fluids.
The hose is designed to handle high pressures and temperatures of up to four thousand pounds per square inch (MPa). It can handle petroleum-based hydraulic fluids and water/glycol hydraulic liquids. It is reinforced by four layers of high-tensile steel wire. Its outer cover is made of black synthetic rubber with a gray Mylar tape lay-line.
A high-pressure rubber chemically hose must meet safety requirements to maintain its performance. It must have a higher pressure resistance than the fluid being conveyed. This factor is known as the safety factor. This ratio can vary depending on the application. In hydraulic applications, the safety factor is 4:1, while in special static applications, the safety factor is 2.5. The performance of a hose can be enhanced by textile reinforcements such as rayon, nylon, and polyester fabrics. For high-pressure applications, steel wire spirals can also be purchased.
