Why Use Metal Hose
Metal Hose is frequently used in piping situations where:
Stainless steel corrugated hose can absorb the heat or pressure-induced expansion of the pipe system.
Braided hose compensate for misalignment, or to allow lateral movements of the system during exploitation.
High temperature fluids or gases have to be safely conveyed through copper corrugated hose under high pressure or under vacuum conditions.
Where Corrugated Metal Hose is Used
Metal Hose is used in many traditional and newly developed applications.For example, metal hose can also be found in heating, ventilation and air conditioning systems in both industrial and high-rise buildings.
Some examples include pump connections to eliminate vibration on hot and chilled water pumps, for taking up lateral movement caused by expansion and contraction of piping and transitions imposed by seismic forces. They can also used as vibration isolators on refrigeration units and air conditioner compressors and cooling towers.
