Blasting Hose Size and Material
Blasting hoses should be 3-4 times larger in diameter than the nozzle they are connecting to. This prevents loss of air pressure and avoids unnecessary wear on the hose. Blue Dog blasting, your one-stop shop for serious sandblast equipment, offers a hardy line of 2-ply hoses that accept properly sized couplings and nozzles. Find the right ID size and length for your project here. Length The length of a blast hose can have a significant impact on the blasting performance. A longer hose can cause pressure losses which reduce the flow of air and abrasive to the nozzle. The optimum hose length is between three and four times the nozzle diameter. This size will provide sufficient air volume and adequate pressure to maximize productivity. A longer hose can also make it difficult to work in tight spaces. It is a good idea to regularly check the pressure in your hose with a needle pressure gauge to ensure it is still at the correct pressure. The Elcometer 102 needle pressure gauge is a great tool for this purpose, allowing you to test the nozzle pressure directly without having to disconnect the blast hose. A blast hose should be tough enough to…
How to Cut a Drill Hose
Drill hoses are used on oil rigs to convey drilling mud, well effluents and cement slurry. They have a lining that protects the hose construction from chemical and heat effects of the conveyed medium. During deep hot-water ice drilling, the residual non-flowing hot water in the drill hose will quickly become cooled and frozen in 1 h at the low temperature of -20 degC. The frost heave force generated by this freezing will easily cause the hose to rupture. High-Pressure Hose High pressure drill hoses can take on a lot more power than lower-pressure models. This enables them to withstand a lot more stress and temperatures as well, making them ideal for various situations. These types of hoses are typically made from a variety of materials and can be used in a number of different ways. One common use is with a pressure washer, which can blast water or other materials at high-pressure levels to clean surfaces, such as driveways and decks.

Hydraulic Hose Fittings Types
There are many different styles of hydraulic hose fittings. Each has its own benefits and drawbacks. A few things to keep in mind when choosing a hydraulic hose fitting are versatility, reliability and port connections. To ensure the right fit, it is crucial to understand the various hydraulic hose fittings types. Flare Fitting Flare fittings are used for a wide variety of hydraulic applications. They are easily identified by their flared end that fits into a piece of tubing. Once the nut is tightened, it creates an effective metal-to-metal seal. Flaring copper can be done manually or with pneumatic flaring tools, depending on the application. In some cases, flare fittings are used to join copper tube to iron pipe for water services or fuel gas (Liquefied Petroleum Gas / LPG), rather than soldering or brazing. When selecting a flare fitting, it is important to determine the type of operation you need and what temperature range is required. Additionally, the pressure the hose will be exposed to should also be taken into consideration. Lastly, it is important to note whether the fitting is reusable or permanent (crimped). Reusable fittings require a wrench and vise, while permanent ones use a crimping tool.…

When to Replace a Pressure Washer Hose
If a pressure washer is experiencing loss of pressure, it may be time to replace the hose. A damaged hose can be dangerous. It can also cause severe damage to your property and possibly land you in the hospital. Pressure hoses are available in a variety of lengths, diameters, and pressure capacities. Choose one that best fits your needs. It is made of three layers The third layer is the outer cover, which protects the hose from environmental dangers, such as weather or abrasion. This layer is typically made from a material that resists corrosion and withstands high temperatures. The outer cover also protects the wire reinforcement from damage. Ordinary hoses, reenforced with wire, are normally circular in cross-section and flattened when they are accidentally crushed or otherwise distorted. This bending stresses the wires beyond their elastic limit and ruins the hose. Consequently, there is usually an absence of any circumferential tension in such a flattened hose. But when the hose is in use, it is inflated by the pressure of the fluid within it and is forced back into a circular shape by that fluid’s pressure. The two helix or spiral layers of chain 35 and 38 are therefore…
Hydraulic Hose Fittings
Hydraulic hose fittings connect hydraulic hoses to valves, pumps, motors, cylinders and other components. Choosing the right fit is critical, as incorrect connections can lead to leaking hydraulic fluid and potentially costly equipment or safety issues. When selecting hydraulic hose fittings, size, temperature, application and material/media are all important considerations. Flanges and fittings both provide an excellent connection, but deciding which type is best for your application depends on many factors. All-Metal Fittings Brass is a common fitting material that provides many benefits. It’s malleable and easier to shape than other metals, which reduces labor costs for trade professionals. It also resists corrosion well. The all-metal construction of a push fit provides superior strength, making it ideal for high-pressure applications. The one piece ferrule is either asymmetrical or symmetrical to ensure it seals evenly around the tubing’s OD. Asymmetrical ferrules are cone shaped and can only be inserted into the body in one direction, while symmetrical ferrules look like two cones back-to-back. These types of fittings require less torque to install, and the elastomeric seal absorbs small amounts of movement and vibration. This flexibility increases the lifetime of the fitting, while preventing leaks caused by rigidity and stress. Typical configurations…
