PRODUCT OverviewPRODUCT CENTER

Stainless steel braided hose is a corrugated stainless steel hose (helical corrugation on sizes to 2" and annular corrugation on 24” or larger sizes) with external stainless steel braiding. It is commonly used in high temperature or highly corrosive applications where a rubber hose is not suitable. It is also popular in permanent piping installations and short lengths (jumper) in potable water, cooling, steam, or other liquid applications where a rubber hose does not provide enough flexibility or a long enough service life (rubber and plastics will degrade when subject to the elements). Our standard is the SS304 or SS316 hose with the SS304 single braided reinforcement (also available in double braided mesh cover). The braided mesh acts as a reinforcement to increase pressure ratings and prevent elongation - it is not designed to withstand dragging or abuse. It is also available with no reinforcement for vacuum or drain lines. In order to reduce the chance of failure, stainless steel braided hose cannot be "twisted/ torqued" or flexed on more than one plane - special care must be used during installation. Also, when flow velocity exceeds a certain value, resonant vibration can occur in hoses and lead to premature failure (increasing the hose diameter or use of a liner can combat this problem). If vibration is severe, contact us for application information.  

The stainless steel braided hose with thread nipples assembly has an SS304 stainless steel inner hose for flexibility and resistance to corrosion and high temperatures and reinforced with stainless steel braided to resist expansion for maintaining maximum pressure. two pipe male thread nipples fittings are welded onto each end to form a high-pressure assembly with a connection that minimizes noise and vibration. This braided hose assembly is suitable for use in applications with high pressure ratings and high temperatures to transfer or convey air or liquid in hose systems.
