Purchasing Industrial Hose Fittings: The Importance Of Application

by | Dec 28, 2018 | Oil Field Equipment Supplier

Many industries utilize hoses to provide hosts to convey various fluids along a specific route. Industrial hose fittings act to connect the different runs of hose. The fitting may connect a single hose or system to another section or system. It may link it to a piece of equipment. It may even join it to other components. In Texas, industries rely on fittings to accomplish all the above ordained tasks.

Characteristics

Fittings are produced in a variety of materials. Companies can purchase them in

 * Aluminum
 * Brass
 * Fluororesin (PFA/PTFE/PVDF
 * Polyethylene (PE)
 * Polypropylene (PP)
 * PVC (poly-vinyl-chloride)
 * Stainless Steel
 * Steel

Not all are appropriate for industrial use. Not all are suited for all applications.

In fact, when it comes time to choose the right fitting for an industrial hose, it is very important to understand the intended application. Before combining hose and fitting, consider the following whether the system is to be hydraulic or pneumatic in character. Next, consider the character of the fluid the fitting must help to confine. Knowing the basic nature of the application helps you to decide on the type of fitting to use.

Seals are a part of ensuring a company makes the most suitable choice of hose fittings possible. Seals need to be

 * Appropriate for the application
 * Have the ability to prevent the leakage of corrosive chemicals and gas
 * Must be resistant to rust and related environmental and chemical corrosive elements

Overall, it is impossible not to stress enough the imperative – Industrial hose fittings MUST be appropriately matched to their application.
