Industrial rubber hoses come in a wide variety on the market. However, the types of industrial rubber hoses are relatively fixed. Familiarity with the types of industrial rubber hoses not only helps you identify the hoses you need but also makes it easier to purchase the right ones. With the increasing popularity and application of industrial rubber hoses, understanding their types also allows you to stay up-to-date with the latest industrial rubber hoses and acquire them promptly.
Industrial rubber hoses refer to rubber hoses used in industry through a vulcanization process. Based on the application field, industrial hoses can be divided into chemical hoses, hydraulic hoses, and high-pressure hoses.
Chemical hoses are mainly used for chemical liquids and are resistant to strong solvents, strong acids, and alkali corrosion. Chemical industrial hoses can be used to transport almost all chemicals we know today and are widely used in the chemical industry, paint industry, and related industries. They can also be used to unload organic solvents. Chemical industrial hoses can also be used to store dyes, inks, paints, chemical solvents, and strong acids and alkalis. They are also commonly used in the printing industry for oil-based or water-based inks.
Hydraulic hoses are mainly used in construction engineering and can be used for high-pressure liquids and hydraulic transmission. Generally, hydraulic industrial hoses are the main tools of the future and can be used as the transmission pressure source for electric and manual hydraulic jacks. The media used in this process are generally hydraulic oil, fuel oil, lubricating oil, water, air, and water-based liquids. Furthermore, depending on the temperature of the media, oil temperatures typically range from -40°C to 100°C, air temperatures from -30°C to 50°C, and water emulsion temperatures below 80°C.
High-pressure rubber hoses are widely used in various fields. In the coal industry, high-pressure industrial rubber hoses can meet its continuously evolving requirements. They can be used not only for support but also for water injection or grouting in underground coal seams. In the petroleum industry, with the adjustment and deployment of national marine strategies, the requirements for oil operations are becoming increasingly stringent, and high-pressure industrial rubber hoses are once again demonstrating their advantages. They meet the needs of the petroleum industry in exploring near-shore and shallow-sea oil fields; in the metallurgical industry, high-pressure industrial rubber hoses possess excellent properties such as high pressure resistance, high temperature resistance, and aging resistance; in agriculture and water conservancy industries, high-pressure industrial rubber hoses are durable and convenient.
