Stainless Steel Hose

The Standard for Durable,Corrosion-Resistant Flexibility

Stainless Steel Hose is a versatile and robust flexible conduit,constructed primarily from stainless steel alloys,designed to convey fluids,gases,and vapors where corrosion resistance,strength,and flexibility are critical.It is the preferred choice for overcoming challenges of movement,vibration,and harsh environments that would compromise lesser materials.

Core Construction&Engineering

1.Corrugated Inner Core

The heart of the hose,providing flexibility.Two primary corrugation types define its performance:

Annular Corrugation:Features concentric,ring-like convolutions.Delivers superior pressure integrity,excellent fatigue resistance,and a relatively smooth bore for optimized flow with minimal pressure drop.

Helical(Spiral)Corrugation:Features a continuous,spiraled convolution.Provides greater axial flexibility and compression/extension capability,ideal for applications with significant linear movement or vibration.

2.Braided Wire Reinforcement

One or multiple layers of stainless steel wire mesh are woven over the core.This braiding is critical for:

Pressure Reinforcement:Significantly increases the hose's burst pressure rating.

Mechanical Protection:Shields the delicate corrugations from abrasion,crushing,and external damage.

Pulse&Vibration Damping:Enhances the hose's ability to withstand dynamic pressure fluctuations and mechanical vibrations.

Configuration:Available as single-braid(standard duty),double-braid(high pressure/vibration),or unbraided(for full vacuum,thermal movement,or maximum flexibility).

3.End Fittings

Precision-engineered terminations ensure a secure,leak-proof connection.Common types include:

Permanent(Captive)Fittings:Attached via swaging,brazing,or welding for maximum reliability in high-pressure and high-vibration applications.

Reusable(Field-Attachable)Fittings:Allow for on-site assembly and hose replacement,offering maintenance flexibility.

Connection Styles:Include a wide range such as male/female NPT,JIC 37°flare,SAE straight-thread,DIN,metric,flanged,and weld ends.
