The KE-Masterhose® range of flexible metal hoses is manufactured from corrugated, stainless steel and thin-walled welded pipes. They are designed for use in piping systems, where fluids, gases, chemicals etc. are being conveyed, often under pressure.
Flexible metal hoses serve to absorb reciprocating motion, thermal expansion, vibration and misalignment, which may otherwise cause damage to the piping system. Applications include, amongst others:
- Transportation of hazardous fluids
- Anti-vibration use
- Transportation of high pressure corrosive gas
- Loading & unloading of tanks & tankers
Stainless steel hoses, which can be provided with stainless steel wire on the outside for protection and for higher pressure ratings, are used in the following industries:
- Refineries & petro-chemical
- Power plants & boilers
- Steel works
- Chemicals industry
- Paper industry
- Fertiliser industry
- Nuclear plants
- Lubrication systems
- Automotive exhaust systems
- Steam, hot water and pneumatic systems
Advantages of the KE-Masterhose® range:
- High physical strength combined with light weight
- Suitable for a wide temperature range (-200°C up to +700°C)
- Good corrosion resistance
- Resistance to fire, moisture, abrasion and penetration
- Absorb vibration and noise from pumps, compressors, engines etc
- Compensate for thermal expansion or contraction of piping
- Connect misaligned rigid piping
- A flexible and quick option for correct piping in difficult locations
