Standard methods used to assemble fittings on industrial rubber hoses
CLAMPED FITTINGS Several types of clamps and bands that clamp a hose on a fitting tail. | |
FITTINGS WITH SAFETY CLAMPS Bolted clamps that crimp a hose on a tail of the fitting and are secured with a lock(flange) against detaching from a tail of the fitting. | |
CRIMPED FITTINGS Ferrules are mechanically crimped from outside and secured with a lock (flange) against detaching from a tail of the fitting. |
Special methods used to assemble fittings on industrial rubber hoses
INTERNAL CRIMPED FITTINGS Fittings are mechanically crimped from the inside (by pulling a conically-shaped tool through) and secured with a lock (flange) against detaching from a tail of the fitting. This method ensures full, uninterrupted flow of media through the fitting. | |
BUILT-IN FITTINGS(VULCANISED) Fittings are vulcanised into a hose during hose production process – integrated with the hose. This method ensures full, uninterrupted flow of media through the fitting. | |
BUILT-IN (VULCANISED) RUBBER PROTECTED FLANGES Fittings are vulcanised into a hose during hose production process – integrated with the hose, coated with rubber inside and on a sealing surface. This method ensures full, uninterrupted flow of media through the fitting. No direct contact between media and fitting material. No additional seal needed. | |
FLANGES INTEGRATED WITH A RING Fittings are assembled with a special shaped ring vulcanised during hose production process – integrated with the hose, coated with rubber inside and on a sealing surface. This method ensures full, uninterrupted flow of media through the fitting. No direct contact between media and fitting material. No additional seal needed. | |
RUBBER FLANGES Flange-shaped, rubber fittings formed and vulcanised during hose production process, reinforced and bolted together with metal back-up rings during installation. |
Special end types of industrial rubber hoses
SOFT HOSE ENDS To facilitate fitting assembly, the wire helix of a suction-delivery hose is ended earlier, before the end of the hose (during hose production). The hose end is finished with textile braid and has appropriate wall thickness. | |
ENLARGED SOFT HOSE ENDS To facilitate fitting assembly, the wire helix of a suction-delivery hose is ended earlier, before the end of the hose (during hose production). The hose end is enlarged, finished with textile braid and has appropriate wall thickness. | |
CAPPED HOSE ENDS The end of a hose is completely vulcanised during hose production process in order to protect reinforcement (braid) against medium intrusion or moisture. |
