Metal hoses are mainly used as protective tubes for communication wires and cables.
What are the classifications of metal flexible hoses?
1. Wire Harnessed Metal Flexible Hoses: These hoses are primarily made of stainless steel, featuring excellent flexibility, corrosion resistance, and tensile strength. They have good heat and wear resistance, and are mainly used as protective tubes for electrical wires and cables.
2. Ductile Metal Hoses: Ductile metal hoses are primarily composed of three parts: the bellows, the mesh sleeve, and the fitting. The bellows provide flexibility in the hose, and are made of thin-walled stainless steel with helical or annular corrugations. The mesh sleeve is woven from crossed metal wires or strips in a specific order, mounted on the outer surface of the metal bellows, serving to reinforce and shield. The fitting structures are generally categorized into three types: spiral, flanged, and quick-release. Depending on different usage requirements, the connection methods among the bellows, mesh sleeve, and fitting include welding, mechanical clamping, and a mixed style.
3.塑包金属软管: This is a new type of flexible hose, featuring an inner layer made of stainless steel or galvanized steel hose that has been specially treated, and an outer layer made of PVC material. It boasts UV resistance and aging prevention properties.
What are the characteristics of metal flexible hoses?
Metallic flexible hoses are mainly made of stainless steel material, featuring high corrosion resistance.
2. Metal hoses have an extremely wide working temperature range, from -196 to 600°C, with excellent performance in withstanding high and low temperatures.
3. The metal flexible hose body is hydraulically formed, featuring excellent flexibility, tensile strength, good bending and shock resistance, as well as bend resistance, tensile resistance, and side pressure resistance.
4. The metal hose features excellent wear resistance, is rodent-proof, and can protect the internal wires from damage.
5. Metal hoses come with a variety of connectors, making them easy to connect with other equipment. The ends of the hoses can also be made into other types of connections besides threads and flanges, for convenient connection and use with other devices.
6. Metal flexible hoses are easy to install and position with threading, suitable not only for use with rotating connectors but also widely applied in soft connections for the conveyance of various fluid media.
