Description
Product details
Material: Inner Liner: Made from materials such as synthetic rubber (e.g., EPDM, SBR) or thermoplastic (e.g., PVC). The inner liner is designed to handle the pressure and temperature of both air and water, ensuring durability and flexibility. Reinforcement: Typically reinforced with textile braiding or spiral wires made of synthetic fibers or steel. This reinforcement provides the hose with strength and flexibility, allowing it to withstand high pressures and resist kinking. Outer Cover: Constructed from abrasion-resistant rubber or thermoplastic materials. The outer cover protects the hose from external damage, such as cuts, abrasions, and exposure to environmental factors like UV rays and chemicals. Pressure Rating: Working Pressure: Air/water hoses are designed to handle various pressure ranges depending on the hose’s construction. Common pressure ratings are from 6 bar to 20 bar (approximately 90 psi to 300 psi), but some hoses can handle higher pressures. Temperature Range: Operating Temperature: Typically effective within a temperature range from -10°C to +60°C (14°F to 140°F). The specific temperature range can vary based on the hose material and construction. Flexibility: Bending Radius: Designed to be flexible for ease of handling and routing. The hose’s flexibility allows it to be used in various settings without kinking or restricting flow. Safety Features: Burst Pressure: Air/water hoses are built with a burst pressure significantly higher than their working pressure to ensure safety and prevent hose failure. This construction provides a safety margin to handle unexpected pressure surges.
