The temperature range above is a general reference, not a confirmed operating rating for every hose assembly. Please confirm suitability for your operating temperature, pressure, media and end connections with our team.
Stainless Steel Braid
Unbraided corrugated hoses tend to elongate when pressurised above a certain level. To restrain this, an external layer of stainless steel wire braiding is provided on the hose.
The braiding prevents longitudinal expansion of the corrugated hose and increases its internal pressure strength.
Stainless steel braiding is highly flexible and follows the movements of the hose.
