High quality flexible hoses and metal components designed to deliver safety, durability and long-term reliability.

Flexible Hose / Stripwound Hose

     

Primary Application

  • Exhaust & Ventilation: Ideal for engine exhaust systems, high-temperature gas venting, and fume extraction.

  • Bulk Material Handling: Suitable for the suction and gravity transit of dry solids, plastic beads, grain, flour, and other abrasive bulk materials.

  • Fluid & Viscous Media Transfer: Used for conveying fluids, tar, hot bitumen, and asphalt.

  • Protection: Excellent for heavy-duty cable armouring and protective electrical conduits.

Structure & Specifications

  • Hose Type: Interlock hose – Round section double overlap configuration (Constructed by helically winding a profiled metal strip where adjacent turns interlock with each other).

  • Hose Material: Stainless Steel (Offers superior mechanical strength, heat resistance, and environmental durability).

  • Packing Material: Copper wire/fiber packing (Interlocked within the profile seams to minimize leakage and enhance pressure/suction stability).

  • Movement: Accommodates both axial (longitudinal) and bending movements.

  • Size Range: 3/4″ to 12″

  • Brand: Amnitec (United Kingdom)

Operating Temperature Or Condition

(Not specified, but inherently highly resistant to elevated temperatures due to the all-metal stainless steel and copper construction)

Key Features & Benefits

  • High Mechanical Strength: The double-overlap interlock structure provides robust crush resistance and structural integrity against external impacts and heavy-duty usage.

  • Flexible Movement: Allows smooth bending and controlled axial shifting without losing its cross-sectional profile, protecting against kinks or collapsing.

  • Abrasion Resistance: The smooth interior profile of the interlocked steel minimizes friction and wear when transferring abrasive grains, pellets, or powders.

Certifications & Standards

  • Manufactured and verified in accordance with the international standard: BS EN ISO 15465:2004 (Piping – Stripwound metal hoses and hose assemblies)
