Maintain your flexible rubber pipe during the use

In the former pieces, we learned that we need to correctly use the high pressure rubber hose. Besides, we learned that a hose protector is helpful to protect the rubber hoses. Then next, let me show you how to maintain the flexible rubber pipe during the use.

Tips to maintain your flexible rubber pipe

First, try to keep the hose is a straight state during use. But if you can not avoid bending it, never bend it too tight. At the same time, the bending radius should not be too small. Orientflex suggests that it should be at least 9 times of the diameter. Besides, there should be a straight section on the connection of rubber hose and joint.

Second, do not twist the hose when you install it. Slight twisting of the hose may reduce its strength and loosen the joints. Besides, you should tighten the fitting to the hose, not the hose to the fitting.

Third, the hose should avoid being in a tight state. At the same time, there should be a certain length margin to keep the hose loose. During the daily use, protect your hose well and prevent any crush and impact. While once you find any breaks, bubbles and cracks, change a new hose at once.

Above are some tips to maintain your flexible rubber pipe during use. If you want to learn more about that, welcome to consult Orientflex.
