VARIATIONS for the widest range of uses for the hoses.
Proven ancillary equipment can provide hoses or extension
bellows with additional properties.
The standard constructions are :
| CroNi | Clip ( =metal reinforcement) of the hose in a chromium-nickel fine steel, stainless |
| CroNiMo | Clip of the hose in chromium-nickel-molybdenum fine steel, acid-resistant |
| CroNiSi | Clip of the hose in chromium-nickel-silicon fine steel, high-temperature-resistant |
| IsoClip | Very effective thin insulation
of 3-6 mm wall thickness which has the effect of making contact heat harmless.
The metal clip is also externally insulated. |
| IsoIn | Very thin, highly-effective heat and noise insulation on the inside of the hose. |
| Therm | Thick insulation of 20-150 mmwall
thickness. Lowest bending radius, usually 0,55 times the external diameter. |
| Silence | Similer to -Therm- however,
for sound insulation. At the same time, the inner surfaces remain non-perforated in order to keep the air flowing through free of fibres. |
| Force | Hose reinforced with additional thick outer jacket. |
| Antistatic | All hoses have an anti-static
basic design. This can be raised to comply with the international
protection classes I ( =5A ); IIA + IIB ( =3A ); IIC ( =2A ). |
| HT | High-temperature hose, currently up to 2,800°C or 5,000°F |
| LT | Low-temperature hose, currently down to -268°C or - 450°F ( = approx. 4°K ) |
| Flammresist | Hose which is difficult to inflame, e.g. based on DIN 4102 |
| Fireless | Non-flammable hose, not just difficult to inflame. |
| FireWall | Fire-inhibiting outer skin of the hose. |
| Foodable | Suitable for food and simultaneously resistant types. |
| Oilsooger | Absorbs oil, fuels or other liquids into its walls. |
| CD | Hoses impervious to chemicals, condensation-proof and diffusion-proof. |
| Vac | Rigid/flexible version for high
vacuum pressures with very good bending radius,
usually 0.65 times the inner diameter. |
| VacuLift | Prefolded hose as lifting hose for Vacu-Lift systems. |
| Sparc | Sparc-resistant hose for welding gases and grinding suction removal. |
| Weldex | Welding gas suction removal hose with spark protection inside and partly on the outside. |
| Narrow | Narrowed steel helix (=clip)
distance for higher vacuum resistance or greater peak pressure resistance.
E.g. Narrow-3 means: clip distance approx. 3 cm. |
| Stretch | Hose automatically pulls itself together like a tension spring. |
| Spread | Hose constantly stretches itself out flat like a pressure spring. |
| Shield | With reinforced inner protection against abrasion, contact heat, high-energy radiation or other. |
| Shell | With additional screened outer protection against UV rays, influences of weather, steam jets, drips of hot grease, against damage by assembly tools, electromagnetic fields, radioactivity, flying sparcs and similar. |
| Outskin | Additional usually extruded-on outer skin made of FEP, PVC, LDPE up to 820 mm outer diameter. |
| PEnet | Polyethylene hoses, reinforced with lattice meave of high tensile strength. |
| FireJacket | Additional outer skin resistant to sparks, flames and heat radiation. |
| InWire | Additional inner steel helix, usually made of chromium-nickel-molybdenum. |
| OutWire | Additional outer steel helix for folding inwards of the hose walls. |
| Shrink | Hose made of shrinkable material, in particular for easier sealing of the ends. |
| Flat | External insulation free of steels ribs oval-shaped for narrow spaces between floors spaces or limited space with hoses which cross each other. |
| Infold | Pre-defined folding inwards in order to guarantee inward folding even with overpressure. |
| Clear | Tranparent hoses with special 95 % trtansmission of light and UV. |
| Silver | Black, white, grey, red, blue, green: with colour selection |
| Kabel | Conductor embedded in clip. |
| Barrier | Barriers against smell or steam diffusion or electromagnetic fields. |
| HeatFrostChok | shock resistant, e.g. from -90°C - + 400°C = - 130°F - + 750 °F in 3 seconds. |
