Description
A flange metal hose is a crucial connection component in engineering technology, valued for its flexibility and durability. It consists of three main parts: a corrugated flexible pipe, a mesh sleeve, and a joint. The corrugated flexible pipe provides the necessary flexibility, allowing the hose to bend and move without breaking. The mesh sleeve, woven around the pipe, offers additional strength and protection against external damage. The joint, often a flange, facilitates the secure connection of the hose to other system components, ensuring a reliable and leak-free seal. This construction allows flange metal hoses to efficiently handle high pressures and varying temperatures, making them ideal for a wide range of industrial applications.
Threaded Metal Hose
Introduction to metal soft connection products: a necessity for the connection of pipeline equipment mouths. It can absorb shock and noise and absorb movement. It is installed in the liquid delivery system.
Thread metal hose 304 corrugated metal hose. It is a pipeline connector with high strength, high pressure resistance, and good flexibility, which can enhance the transmission of liquids or gases through corrugated metal hoses, designed to handle extreme temperatures and pressures.
Metal hoses can be used for other types of hoses, such as conveying extremely high temperature liquids or gases, or conveying extremely cold (low temperature) liquids.

Explosion-Proof Flexible Pipe
Used as wire and cable protection tubes and industrial hoses for wires, cables, and automation instrument signals, with specifications from 6mm to 150mm. Small-diameter metal hoses (inner diameter 6mm-25mm) are mainly used for sensing circuit protection of precision optical rulers and industrial sensor circuit protection.
Explosion proof flexible pipe, also known as explosion-proof hose or explosion-proof corrugated pipe, is mainly used for line protection and connection in flammable and explosive environments. It has good corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, and tensile strength, which can ensure the safety and stability of the line in various harsh environments. The following are some application scenarios for explosion-proof flexible pipes:
1. Petrochemical industry: In processes such as petroleum refining and chemical production, a large number of flammable and explosive substances are involved, such as gasoline, methanol, acrylic acid, etc. Explosion proof flexible pipes can be used for the protection of electrical equipment, instruments, and circuits in these places, reducing the risk of fire and explosion.
2. Coal mining industry: The underground environment of coal mines is complex, with a large amount of flammable and explosive substances such as gas and coal dust. Explosion proof flexible pipes can provide reliable protection for coal mine electrical equipment and prevent explosion accidents caused by electric sparks.
3. Food and pharmaceutical industry: In the production process of food and pharmaceuticals, it is necessary to strictly control the cleanliness and safety of the environment. Explosion proof flexible pipes can provide protection for electrical equipment on the production line, avoid the impact of dust, moisture, and other factors on the equipment, and ensure product quality.
4. Metallurgical industry: The metallurgical production process involves harsh environments such as high temperature and high pressure, and also generates a large amount of flammable and explosive gases. Explosion proof flexible pipes can provide line protection in such places, ensuring production safety.
5. Construction engineering: In construction engineering, explosion-proof flexible pipes can be used for line protection of electrical equipment such as elevators and escalators to prevent fire accidents caused by line faults.
6. Transportation: In fields such as automobiles, ships, and rail transit, explosion-proof flexible pipes can be used for line protection of on-board electrical equipment to ensure the safe operation of transportation vehicles.
High-Pressure Hose
The high-pressure rubber hoses feature chromed brass fittings and are designed to meet the EN 250:2014 standard. They have a maximum working pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and a burst pressure rating of 20000 psi (1400 bar).
Product Description
The high-pressure rubber hoses feature chromed brass fittings and are designed to meet the EN 250:2014 standard. They have a maximum working pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and a burst pressure rating of 20000 psi (1400 bar). Typically, an HP hose has a 7/16-inch male fitting at the end that screws into the first stage HP port and a 7/16-inch female swivel fitting at the end that attaches to the SPG. Our most popular HP hose lengths are 24 inches (61 cm) for doubles, 26 inches (66 cm) for singles, and 30 inches (76 cm) for consoles. All high-pressure hoses utilize an 'air spool' with two small o-rings to connect the swivel connector on the hose to the gauge fitting. If the air spool is worn or missing, the HP hose will leak at the swivel. The air spool is not included with the hose, but we recommend replacing it when you replace the hose. The standard spool has a central flange, but some SPGs, particularly those with plastic bodies, may only accept a spool without a shoulder. In such cases, you will need to reuse the air spool from the SPG.

What is a Rubber Expansion Joint?
A rubber expansion joint is a flexible connector designed to absorb noise, shock, vibration, and physical and thermal energy. It is made from natural or synthetic elastomers and may be internally reinforced with fabrics and metal for strength and pressure resistance. External metal reinforcement may also be used for movement control.
Construction Terms for Rubber Expansion Joints
Carcass: The body of the expansion joint consisting of fabric and/or interior metal reinforcement.
Cover: The natural or synthetic rubber exterior that protects the carcass from damage.
Fabric Reinforcement: A synthetic or natural fabric between the tube and cover that flexibly supports the expansion joint for movement or pressure.
Metal Reinforcement: Solid rings or wire embedded in the carcass to strengthen the joint for high pressure or vacuum.
Tube: A protective, leak-proof lining that extends through the bore to the flanges, preventing fluids from penetrating and weakening the carcass.
