The difference between metal mesh pipe and metal hose
Metal hoses include threaded metal hoses and corrugated metal hoses, which are mainly used to protect transmission signal lines, wires and cables, fiber optic cables, etc. In civilian use, it is mainly used for shower hoses, kitchen wash basin hoses, and industrially used in factory production workshops to protect cables and wires from external damage. Metal hoses generally have the characteristics of waterproof, insulation, fire resistance, and stretch resistance, and have good bending and stretchability.
Metal mesh tube generally refers to a metal braided tube, which is composed of multiple layers of inner tubes. Each layer has a different structure. Generally, the inner layer is a rubber tube, and the middle is an insulating layer. The appearance is a mesh tube braided by stainless steel wires. It is used for faucets and toilets. Pipe fittings for water pipes and showers.
Compared with metal hoses, metal mesh pipes have stronger toughness, strength, and tensile properties, and are used in more households; metal hoses are used in infrastructure laying projects and are used more by enterprises; metal hoses have better sealing properties. However, it is easy to break, and the metal mesh pipe has low airtightness and is easy to leak water.
Therefore, it is possible to choose a metal hose with better sealing performance or a metal mesh tube with better toughness according to the actual situation.
