Principle and characteristics of braided hose
Braided hose, as the name suggests, is a kind of piping product composed of internal rubber or polyurethane pipe and external braided layer. It is based on the rubber pipe with a layer of steel wire or other high-strength braided material layer, which is called "yarn pipe" internationally, and made through a certain process.
The main characteristics of braided hose are its high strength, pressure resistance, abrasion resistance and other properties. The addition of the steel wire braid layer makes the hardness and pressure-bearing capacity increased, and compared to the steel tube is more lightweight, and can accommodate a large amount of liquid or gas flow in the tube. Because of its special structure and material, braided hose in some special areas of application is very common.
The application of braided hose
1. Petroleum industry
In the petroleum industry, braided hose is often used as an oil pipeline, drainage pipe, cement conveying pipe, etc., in order to meet the conventional pipeline can not meet the high pressure, high temperature, corrosion resistance, flame retardant, abrasion resistance and other special needs. For example, in offshore oil platforms, braided hoses are often used as links and transmission systems to ensure the firmness and safety of oil pipelines.
2.Metallurgical industry
In the metallurgical industry, braided hose is often used in the piping system of various metallurgical heat treatment equipment, such as heat treatment furnace, high-temperature oxidiser, cooler, heater, evaporator, flue gas dedusting device and so on, in order to ensure that the replacement of the equipment to the production system and equipment and facilities to bring unnecessary economic losses.
3.Chemical industry
In the chemical industry, braided hose is often used to transport hot water, steam, liquid, sludge and other substances containing acids, alkalis, salts and other corrosive substances, but also for liquefied natural gas, industrial gases.
4.Construction industry
In the construction industry, braided hose is mainly used as engineering concrete conveying pipe, aerial spraying pipe and cement conveying pipe. These piping systems require special requirements such as abrasion resistance, high strength, durability, anti-aging, anti-burst, anti-static, etc., and braided hose has exactly these characteristics.
Overall, braided hose has a wide range of applications and can be used in almost all kinds of industrial and civil fields. With the progress of science and technology and design improvement, the scope and application of braided hose will be more and more extensive.
