Steam-Hoses ASSEMBLIES
Steam-hose assemblies are specialized hoses designed to safely transport high-temperature steam or hot water in industrial settings. They consist of a hose, often made of rubber or other heat-resistant materials, and fittings (couplings, clamps, etc.) that connect it to other equipment or systems. These assemblies are crucial for various applications like cleaning, thawing, and blow-out services in industries where steam is a key component.
Key Features:
Types: | Include couplings, clamps, and other connectors designed to withstand high temperatures and pressures. |
Purpose: | To connect the steam hose to other equipment, like steam generators, pipes, or machines. |
Installation: | May be permanently mounted (e.g., welded or crimped) or manually connected with clamps. |
Construction: | Typically made from heat-resistant materials like EPDM rubber or other polymers, with reinforcement layers (e.g., steel wires, synthetic fibers) for added strength and pressure resistance. |
Features: | High-temperature and pressure resistance, flexibility for easy handling, and often oil and abrasion resistance. |
