Construction consists of several plies of silicone, reinforced with Aramid fabric. The number of plies will vary depending on the working pressure, bore size, and required wall thickness.
Convoluted Hose is produced to suit most power unit applications. Single or multiple convolution variants are available, providing increased flexibility & the ability to absorb greater levels of engine vibration.
A galvanised steel wire helix can be added, buried between the plies so that it is not exposed on either the inside or outside of the hose, perfect for high or negative pressure applications or where improved flexibility is required. Additionally the hoses can be supplied with either convoluted or castellated walls where needed.
Depending on working temperature, there are various build options available that allow the hose to function properly between -50ºC and 305ºC.
