Polyurethane hose uses polyurethane material as its base. Its structure features strong, elastic copper-plated steel wire that covers the pipe wall. The wall itself uses a special polyether-PUR material—a modern alternative to industrial PVC. Compared to PVC, PUR material offers better wear resistance. Furthermore, climate changes do not affect the pipe body. It also has additional properties: tensile resistance, strong tension, and high tear strength.
Flour mills are a typical source of dust pollution. Therefore, factories must take effective dust prevention measures to protect workers’ health and improve production efficiency. As an excellent dust-proof equipment, polyurethane hose becomes indispensable for flour mills.
The Role of PU Hose in Flour Mills
First, polyurethane hose has excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance. It can work for a long time in the high-temperature, high-pressure, and dusty environment of flour mills without deformation or damage.
Secondly, polyurethane hose has good flexibility and plasticity. Workers can easily bend and shape it to adapt to various working conditions and needs.
In addition, polyurethane hose has very good sealing performance. It can effectively prevent flour dust from leaking, thus ensuring the quality and hygiene of flour.
In practical applications, polyurethane hose works in multiple links: flour transportation, ventilation and dust removal, and grain storage. For example, during the flour processing process, using PU hose can reduce the generation of flour dust. Besides that, it can improve work efficiency and protect workers’ health.
In the ventilation and dust removal process, polyurethane hose acts as a ventilation duct. It ensures smooth ventilation and effective dust removal. Meanwhile, in the grain storage process, PU steel wire hose helps granaries keep grains from getting damp.
Beyond flour mills, PU duct hose also serves widely in other industrial fields. The typical ones include mining, chemical industry, and medicine.
