Braid hose cover refers to the braided reinforcement layer outside the inner tube. Different covers have different roles:
Stainless steel wire - Increasing hose working pressure, protect inner tube will not be destroyed by external forces;
PU/PVC - Good protect to stainless steel layer, suitable for automotive hose;
TPU - good protect to stainless steel layer
Silicone - heat insulation, abrasion;
Glass Fiber/ Dacron/ Cotton Yarn - heat insulation;
Motley Cotton Yarn - Thermal insulation an plays an important role in marking, available colors are black, white, blue, red, gray, etc;
Aramid Fiber - thermal insulation, increasing the working pressure;
Braided layer is very important for the PTFE smooth bore tubes and convoluted tubes, it can protect the inner tube from damage easily, but also can increase the working pressure and make the hose more flexible. Because of the special properties of PTFE, it is used in various industries. However, each industry has different requirements for these hoses performance. At this time, the braided cover with different functions can be better applied to each industry. If you need this, please check the above detailed explanation to choose your own way!
Insoluble in any solvents. It can withstand high temperature to 300℃ in a short time, and it can be used continuously between 240℃~260℃, and has remarkable thermal stability.
Inert to most chemicals and solvents, resistant to strong acids and alkalis, water and various organic solvents, and can protect parts from any kind of chemical corrosion.
The working pressure after braided stainless steel wire is 500-4,700 psi or more. Widely used in hydraulic industry.
It can greatly reduce the working intensity of the operator, easier to install.
