Heavy-duty air hose for construction and mining
The Continental division of ContiTech, Fairlawn, Ohio, has introduced a new heavy-duty air hose for the construction and mining markets. Named Super Rock Drill 600 HT, the air hose is specifically designed for applications that require a high working pressure hose in a high temperature environment. “This is a hand-built hose that is exceptionally applicable […]
Hybrid NITRA PVC hose is designed use with air and water
A new hybrid PVC/rubber hose introduced by AutomationDirect is suitable for air and water use. The NITRA Hybrid PVC hose is a blend of PVC and rubber with a polyester braided reinforcement. The PVC gives light weight, color stability and hardness for higher working pressures while the rubber gives improved flexibility and operating temperature range. […]
Tubing versus hose in pneumatic systems
The wires of the pneumatic world are tubing and hoses. Here’s how to choose between the two, and how to apply each in industrial plants and facilities. By Chip McDaniel, AutomationDirect The world of fluid power may not be full of new and amazing products, but it’s used daily and requires connections via tubing and […]
When should you choose tube over hydraulic hose?
Josh Cosford, Contributing Editor to Fluid Power World, weighs in on when you should choose pneumatic tubing over hydraulic hose for an application. Tube I think is for good permanent applications. Sometimes it has a higher pressure capacity. It also has a cleaner look. They last longer and they don’t fail as rapidly. It all […]
