Selecting an industrial hose is a technical decision that impacts safety and productivity. Follow this guide to make an informed choice:

1. Media Compatibility: Always match the hose’s inner tube material (e.g., NBR for oil, EPDM for heat/steam) to the fluid or gas being conveyed.

2. Pressure & Temperature: Ensure the hose’s working pressure and temperature range (e.g., -40°C to 120°C) exceed your application’s maximum requirements.

3. Reinforcement & Flexibility: Consider the reinforcement (textile, steel wire) needed for pressure and whether a smooth or corrugated exterior suits your space constraints.

4. Environment: Factor in exposure to abrasion, weather, ozone, or chemicals, which dictates outer cover durability.

5. Safety Standards: Verify relevant certifications (e.g., FDA, anti-static) for regulated industries like food or chemical handling.

Investing in the right hose prevents downtime and costly failures. Our technical team can help you navigate these specifications.
