Today, many companies are trying to achieve more production from their processes, and are subjecting their equipment to more rigorous environments. This can mean increased demands on your fluid systems, and especially hose. You need information – to ensure your existing hose specifications for pressure, temperature and chemical compatibility are up to date – and Swagelok can help.

Hose Selection Made Easy

Each hose in your facility is different, and correct hose selection requires making choices around the materials of construction that make up a hose assembly, while also paying close attention to the variables in your application. It can be quite an intimidating process. Fortunately, we have a simple and efficient solution: a 2-page Hose Selection Guide.

In addition to providing an understanding of the four main components of a hose, the guide pares several other variables that need to be considered and evaluated – Size, Temperature, Application, Material, Pressure, End Connections, and Delivery – into an easy to remember term. Are your hoses STAMPED?
