Materials Used
The materials we use are Silicone,
Fluorosilicone, Viton ®, Vamaq ®, EPDM, Nitrile (NBR), Hypalon,
Neoprene, SBR, Natural Rubber, etc.
The reinforcement fabrics we use are Polyester, Nomex ®, Kevlar ®,
Nylon, & Glass Fiber. Spring Steel wire coil is also used for better
pressure properties, if required.
Development and Testing
Each hose is developed by our team
after taking a close look at service conditions and the properties required
by the end user.
The hoses are tested daily for shore hardness and burst pressure on the
basis of a sampling plan (and vacuum/suction pressure testing is
also carried out as and when a particular part requires this.
After mixing, each batch is checked for hardness and specific gravity,
before it goes into production.
Apart from this, properties like tensile strength, compression set, ageing
requirements, ozone resistance, ply-adhesion, etc. are also checked from
time to time, apart from when the hoses like epdm rubber hoses, nitrile rubber hoses and silicone rubber hoses is being developed.
