Description
The Air Hose with Braided Reinforcement is designed for the safe and efficient transfer of compressed air and other inert gases in industrial, construction, and automotive applications. Reinforced with a braided synthetic textile, this hose offers enhanced durability, flexibility, and resistance to pressure, making it ideal for various high-pressure air applications. Its robust construction ensures long-lasting performance even in demanding work environments.
1. Construction
- Inner Tube: Made from high-quality synthetic rubber, the inner tube is resistant to oil mist and ensures smooth airflow. It is designed to prevent air leakage and maintain consistent air pressure.
- Reinforcement: Reinforced with a braided high-tensile synthetic textile, the hose can handle high-pressure applications while maintaining flexibility and kink resistance. This braided layer provides excellent strength and durability.
- Outer Cover: The outer cover is made from abrasion-resistant synthetic rubber, designed to withstand tough industrial environments. It is resistant to weather, ozone, and general wear and tear, ensuring long-term use.
2. Standard Sizes
- Inner Diameter: Typically available in a range of sizes, such as 1/4 inch (6mm), 3/8 inch (10mm), 1/2 inch (13mm), and larger, to meet various air transfer needs.
- Length: Standard lengths range from 10 to 100 meters, depending on the application, with custom lengths available upon request.
3. Working Pressure
- Designed for high-pressure air transfer, with working pressures typically ranging from 20 to 30 bars (290 to 435 psi), depending on the hose size and construction.
4. Burst Pressure
- The hose has a high burst pressure rating, usually around 3 to 4 times the working pressure, ensuring safety in high-pressure environments.
5. Temperature Range
- Operates effectively in a broad temperature range, typically from -30°C to 80°C (-22°F to 176°F), making it suitable for use in various climates and industrial settings.
6. End Fittings
- Available with various standard fittings such as quick-connect couplings, threaded fittings, or crimped hose ends, ensuring secure and leak-free connections.
- Custom fittings can be attached based on specific application needs.
7. Performance Characteristics
- High-Pressure Handling: The braided reinforcement allows the hose to handle high-pressure air applications without risk of bursting or damage.
- Flexibility: Despite its strength, the hose remains flexible, making it easy to handle and maneuver in tight spaces or around equipment.
- Abrasion and Weather Resistance: The outer cover is designed to withstand harsh conditions, including rough surfaces, outdoor exposure, and UV radiation, ensuring durability.
- Kink Resistance: The braided reinforcement prevents kinking, maintaining consistent airflow during use, even under heavy bending or flexing.
- Oil and Chemical Resistance: The inner tube is resistant to oil mist and various chemicals, making the hose suitable for use with air compressors and pneumatic tools.
8. Applications
- Ideal for use with air compressors, pneumatic tools, and air-operated equipment in industries such as construction, automotive repair, manufacturing, and mining.
- Commonly used for air supply in construction sites, auto body shops, factories, and other settings where high-pressure air is needed.
- Suitable for use in pneumatic systems for powering tools such as drills, grinders, and impact wrenches.
- Frequently used in spray painting, sandblasting, and air-operated machinery operations.
