Chemical Resistance

to almost all chemicals, including acids and solvents.

Temperature Resistance

ranging between -22 degrees F to +176 degrees F according to materials.

Weight Savings

up to 50% compared with conventional hoses.

Weather Resistance

excellent ozone and UV resistance.

Aging Resistance

optimal even with frequent change of environmental influences, almost no moisture absorption.

Dimensions

favorable ratio between inner diameter and outer diameter, advantageous in space restricted situations.

Dimensional Stability

of internal core due to underwater vacuum calibration.

Volumetric Expansion

extremely low while under pressure, thus less volume of liquid and faster response time.

External Pressure Collapse

according to hose type suitable for deep waters on offshore use.

Flow Characteristics

minimal friction loss due to smooth inner core.

Assembly

all hose types crimped directly onto outer core.

Impulse Resistance

internal pressure fatigue strength as per DIN 20024/ISO6803.

Flexibility

highly flexible by use of thermoplastic and advanced construction techniques.

Pressure Resistance

safety factors of between 4:1 and 2.5:1 for dynamic loading.

Diffusion Resistance

minimal diffusion rates for most gaseous media.

Abrasion Resistance

outer cover shows value of 50mm3 for DIN 53516.
