Types and how to use steel wire reinforced rubber hose
In recent years, PU steel wire hoses have grown increasingly popular, and for good reason—they save users time, money, and effort. Typically, a high-quality PU duct hose starts with premium raw materials. Take Orientflex, for example: we import top-grade materials from Germany, ensuring our PU flexible hoses meet the highest standards for wear resistance and strength.
However, even the best materials don’t guarantee problem-free performance. Improper maintenance of your polyurethane duct hose can lead to premature failure—one of the most common issues is a shorter lifespan than expected.
Key Properties of PU Ducting
PU steel wire abrasion-resistant hoses are built for harsh environments, such as vacuum cleaners, sweepers, and dust collection systems. Here’s what makes them stand out:
Smooth Inner Wall
Ensures seamless medium flow, reducing clogs and resistance.
Lightweight & Flexible
Despite a durable thickness, the hose remains easy to maneuver, ideal for tight spaces or frequent repositioning.
Superior Resistance
Withstands heavy abrasion, mineral oil, aging, ozone, and UV exposure.
Static Conductivity
A copper or steel wire helix inside the hose safely dissipates static electricity, crucial for dust and particle handling.
Maintenance Tips for PU Flexible Ducting
To maximize your hose’s lifespan, follow these simple steps:
Post-Use Cleaning
After each use, promptly remove debris from the hose and your vacuum cleaner or equipment. This prevents buildup that can cause abrasion from the inside.
Regular Inspections
Check the PU duct hose for leaks or damage after every job. If you spot a leak, address it immediately—don’t wait for minor issues to become major problems.
