In our last piece, we discussed fire risks in four-stroke airplanes. This makes protecting oil lines even more critical. Early in aviation history, burning fuel in fuel and oil lines caused many problems. So, people revised hose protection standards. Today, decisions to protect fuel, oil, and other system hoses often depend on the aircraft’s working…
DetailsFiberglass silicone sleeves are new eco-friendly fireproof materials. They combine silicone rubber and glass fiber through a special process. These sleeves offer high strength and resist high temperatures, acids, alkali, and corrosion. For these reasons, they’re popular in shipbuilding, food processing, steel factories, aerospace, and other fields. Today, high-temperature sleeves mainly come in two types:…
DetailsHose joints mainly fall into two categories: low-pressure joints and high-pressure joints. High-pressure joints are often called hydraulic fittings. When selecting hydraulic hose joints, most people start by referencing existing product technical standards. Next, they choose materials based on working conditions. Finally, they factor in the pressure the product will handle. Steps to Choose the…
DetailsNo matter what product you use, regular maintenance is key. Without it, items fail earlier than their designed lifespan—including oil resistant pipes. After using an oil resistant hose for a while, you need to clean it. Cleaning seems simple, but you must follow proper methods and steps. Otherwise, you’ll waste time without getting good results.…
DetailsBundling Method The bundling method works for emergency repairs of rubber hose ruptures—just make sure the pressure stays below 16MPa. Here’s how to do it: Apply oxygen resin glue to the ruptured area of the soft rubber hose. Next, wrap 2–3 layers of oil-resistant rubber over the rupture. Use rubber strips that are 2–3 times…
DetailsThe plastic pipe industry has grown rapidly in recent years. More and more gas stations are replacing steel pipes with a new material: gas station composite hoses. But why have these new double-layer composite oil pipelines become so popular? Now, let’s explore the advantages of HDPE underground hoses. First: Strong Property Advantages of Gas Station…
DetailsTo answer this question, we need to look at real-world performance. Anti-static hoses made of PU excel at absorbing static generated by friction. This makes them one of the best ways to control static electricity at the source. In many industrial fields that require suction operations, equipping with such anti-static hoses is essential. They boost…
DetailsCorrugated hoses serve many applications thanks to their excellent properties. In fact, practice has proven they’re highly practical. Everflex specializes in producing various hose types. Over years of development, we’ve also gained unique insights into hose manufacturing. When it comes to making corrugated pipes, we constantly strive for better quality. No wonder these flexible pipes…
DetailsEvery product serves a unique function. Even a tiny screw plays an irreplaceable role—and the sweeper hose we’re discussing today is no exception. We see street sweepers hard at work every day, keeping our streets clean. Look closely at the bottom of these trucks, and you’ll notice a rubber hose—that’s the sweeper hose. While it’s…
DetailsSpiral hose guard is a new type of protective cover used to replace traditional metal spring guards. It effectively protects hoses or cables from being scratched by friction. The spiral protective cover has excellent wear resistance. But what does this wear resistance have to do with? Wear resistance is related to the environment of use…
