AUTOMA SS304 BRAIDED FLEXIBLE HOSE PN16~ANSI150~JIS10K

A braided stainless steel hose is a flexible hose reinforced with a braided stainless steel outer layer. This design provides durability, strength, and resistance to high pressure, corrosion, and extreme temperatures. It is commonly used in applications where flexibility and reliability are critical.

Key Features:

1. Material:

   • Inner tube: Typically made of rubber, PTFE (Teflon), or other flexible materials.

   • Reinforcement: Stainless steel braiding for added strength and protection.

   • Fittings: Often made of stainless steel or brass for durability.

2. Benefits:

   • High Pressure Resistance: The stainless steel braid provides excellent strength, making it suitable for high-pressure applications.

   • Flexibility: Allows for easy installation in tight or complex spaces.

   • Corrosion Resistance: Stainless steel is resistant to rust and corrosion, making it ideal for harsh environments.

   • Temperature Resistance: Can withstand extreme temperatures, both hot and cold.

   • Durability: Long-lasting and resistant to wear and tear.

3. Common Applications:

   • Plumbing: Used for water supply lines, especially in high-pressure systems.

   • Hydraulics: Ideal for hydraulic systems in machinery and vehicles.

   • Gas and Oil: Suitable for transporting gases, fuels, and oils.

   • Industrial Equipment: Used in manufacturing and processing systems.

   • Automotive: Commonly used for brake lines, fuel lines, and coolant systems.

   • Appliances: Found in washing machines, dishwashers, and refrigerators.

4. Types:

   • Single Braided Hose: One layer of stainless steel braiding for moderate pressure applications.

   • Double Braided Hose: Two layers of stainless steel braiding for higher pressure and more demanding environments.

5. Considerations When Choosing:

   • Size and Length: Ensure the hose fits the required dimensions.

   • Pressure Rating: Match the hose's pressure capacity to the application.

   • Temperature Range: Verify the hose can handle the operating temperatures.

   • Compatibility: Ensure the inner tube material is compatible with the fluid or gas being transported.

Maintenance Tips:

• Regularly inspect for wear, cracks, or leaks.

• Avoid kinking or bending the hose beyond its recommended radius.

• Replace hoses that show signs of damage or aging.
