Composite hose is specifically engineered to handle many kinds of oils and chemicals safely and easily. Orientflex flexible composite hose is made with stringent quality standards.Thus our hose is highly reliable and durable. The hose combines multi layers of steel wire helix and liners to ensure lightness, excellent flexibility and toughness. Both inner and outer wires are electrically continuous to prevent static discharge. It offers a high degree of chemical compatibility whilst the ‘no burst’ nature of the composite construction eliminates potentially catastrophic ruptures.
Composite Hose Structure:
Inner tube: Polypropylene/PTFE
①Inner steel wire: hot dip galvanized steel wire/stainless steel wire
②Outer steel wire: hot dip galvanized steel wire/stainless steel wire
③Barrier layer
④Reinforce layer
⑤Anti-aging layer
From the structure we can see there are mainly 2 types of composite pipe. The first one has a PP inner tube with galvanized steel wire. While the second one has a PTFE tube with stainless steel wire. Polypropylene has excellent oil resistance. Thus the GGP composite flexible hose is specially designed to deliver various oils like fuel, diesel, lubricant, etc. While PTFE has excellent resistance to chemicals like acid, alkali, solvent, etc. Thus the SST composite chemical hose is mainly for various paints and chemicals. It can also deliver oil products like petroleum.
Advantages of Composite Hose
First, the hose is light in weight. While according to the test, it is 40% lighter than the rubber hose and 60% othat of metal hose with the same diameter and length. Therefore, it is easy to transport and install. While this can help you save much cost.
Second, the hose has a structure with excellent sealing performance. Thus it remains tearing and leakage resistant even in the most harsh environment. For example, the usage in marine.
Third, It is highly flexible to fit any working conditions. It remains flexible even in cold weather.
Fourth, both of the steel wire and inner layer have reliable static elimination property. Thus it can make the oil delivery safe and flexible.
Last, it has excellent oil and chemical resistance. Thus it is widely used in various fields such as marine, chemical factory, power plant, oil exploitation, etc. Besides,the CCS and ABS certificates are available.
Because of the great properties and advantages, composite flexible hose has replaced the traditional rubber hose and metal hose in many fields. These include dock, oil tanker, petrochemical product storage, chemical factory, etc.
