In some places in industry, there are possibility to explode. Or there will be static which can cause serious problems like fire and explosion. In such working condition, the medium deliver hose should be anti-static and explosion proof. Then what kinds of materials are ideal for such purpose? Next, let me introduce you some common materials for anti-static hose.
PU
Polyurethane is a polymer material with excellent wear, tear, cold and water immersion resistance. Then the hose made of this material has excellent pressure resistance and explosion proof performance. Thus it is ideal for harsh working conditions.
PVC
PVC material has excellent chemical and oil resistance. It also has certain flame retardant properties. The hose made of this material is suitable for flammable and explosive media such as petroleum and chemicals.
Rubber
Rubber hoses have good wear and high temperature resistance. Thus they are suitable for oil, gas, acid and alkali, etc. In addition, there are anti-static rubber hoses, which have anti-static functions by adding conductive fillers or conductive materials. Besides, they can prevent safety accidents such as fire and explosion.
Metal
Metal hoses are mainly made of stainless steel. They have good high temp and corrosion resistance. Thus they are suitable for high temp and high pressure conditions.
