This branded hose is manufactured for service on pressure washer machines with working pressures up to 6000 psi. Its tube is made of nitrile synthetic rubber for high resistance to oils, and its cover is made of RMA Class B synthetic rubber for medium-level oil resistance, which means that it is rated to undergo a volume change of no more than +65% and to retain at least 50% of its tensile strength after exposure to oil. This hose is reinforced with two layers of braided steel wire for the strength necessary to reach and maintain its maximum pressure rating. It is capable of functioning effectively at temperatures ranging from -20 to +250 degrees F (-29 to +121 degrees C), and it comes equipped with two male NPT swivel couplings. This hose is not recommended for steam service.
Industrial hoses transfer or convey air or liquid in hose systems. When selecting industrial hoses, use the STAMPED method:
|S = Size (ID, OD, and length)|
|T = Temperature (maximum and minimum temperatures of material being transported)|
|A = Application (industry or process)|
|M = Material (to be conveyed, type and concentration)|
|P = Pressure (maximum working pressure)|
|E = Ends (type of end connectors or couplings on hose)|
|D = Delivery method (volume and velocity)|
The inside diameter of the hose must be adequate to keep pressure loss to a minimum and avoid damage to the hose due to heat generation or excessive turbulence. The hose must be capable of withstanding the minimum and maximum temperatures that occur within the hose system. Some applications require specialized oils or chemicals to be conveyed through the system. In this case, hose selection must ensure compatibility of the hose tube, cover, couplings and O-rings with the fluid used. Industrial hoses are used in systems such as air compressors, automatic manufacturing operations, aircraft controls, and tire installation in industries including agriculture, mining, road construction, firefighting, and aviation.
