Cooling water hose has a wide range of application
When you use rubber hose pipe, do you “take care” of it regularly? If not, you should start now. Orintflex recommends you that when you use rubber pipes, you need to maintain them regularly. Then next, I will show you how to maintain it in detail.
First step, clean the hose
You should blow and clean the hose with purity compressed air. If the pipe material is compatible with oil, you should flush the component with mineral spirits. Otherwise, use no more than +150℉. of hot water to clean it.
The second step, maintain the rubber hose pipe
When using rubber hoses, inspect and maintain them frequently. For example, check them for oil leakage, bend, wear, corrosion or any other damages. If the high temp resistant rubber tube assembly is worn or damaged, you must replace it in time.
The third step, pneumatic acceptance test
How to test it? You should test the hose assembly with twice the working pressure. Then maintain the pressure during the test for no more than one minute but no less than 30 seconds. When it reaches the test pressure, you need to visually inspect the hose assembly. First, confirm if there was any sign of leakage. Then find out if there was any movement of the hose joint relative to the hose. Because any such defects may lead to product failure.
In fact, a good quality flexible rubber hose requires less maintenance. Thus you should choose a high quality hose from a reliable rubber hose supplier. Here I recommend you Orientflex which is a one-stop supplier of flexible hoses and couplings. Because unique service and high quality products, it has been one of the top suppliers.
