You should pay attention to the material of your hose when choosing it. Different materials have different properties that are better for different applications. The material will have a bearing on both the interior and exterior performance of the hose. You will need to consider things like abrasion resistance, extreme temperatures, and UV or chemical exposure when deciding which one to buy.
For applications that require chemical and pressure resistance, a hose with chemical resistance is a great choice. These hoses can handle both organic and inorganic chemicals. They are used most commonly in chemical processing and loading/unloading. They are also used for industrial and laboratory applications.
Corroline+ hose assemblies are available in a range of diameters and pressure ratings. These hoses are electrically continuous and have a resistance of less than 100 ohms between the ends. They are also protected against external abrasion with a black HDPE 'Safegard' strip.
Stainless steel hose is an excellent choice for high-pressure applications. It is non-corrosive and resistant to wetting. It is also resistant to cyclic flow and chemicals.
Chemical abrasive resistant blue spray and air hoses are suitable for conveying liquids of varying temperatures. They can withstand high working pressures, and have a non-marking, blue cover. These hoses are also ideal for conveying chemicals and other hygienic products in explosive environments. They have a corrugated EPDM outer and a spiral-plied synthetic fabric.
Wear resistant water suction and delivery hoses are designed for extreme environments. Their premium-grade material is crush-proof and extremely flexible. They are designed with no wire helix or wire core, so they do not kink when subjected to crushing forces. In addition, they feature a homogeneous wall that eliminates tube separation.
This hose is great for portable pumps, industrial jetting, or pump discharge. Its lightweight design and ozone-resistant cover make it ideal for a wide range of industrial and construction applications. It can also be used for wash-down services and irrigation.
Construction industry workers need to have water suction and delivery pipes that are resistant to wear. Materials being transported can be hard and abrasive. Continental offers a variety of abrasion-resistant hoses. This type of hose can handle a variety of abrasive materials, including cement, glass, and fly ash. It can also transfer metals and fertilizers.
