A stainless steel (SS) braided hose pipe consists of an inner core (rubber, PTFE, or corrugated metal) wrapped in single or double layers of SS wire braid. Key specifications include sizes from 1/4' to 12' NB, working pressures up to 300+ bar, and a temperature range of -200°C to 600°C+. To see a practical overview of how flexible metal braided hoses are structured and used in various applications, watch this short visual guide: Core Materials & Construction • Inner Tube Options: Chlorinated Polyethylene (CPE) synthetic rubber, PTFE/Teflon, or annular corrugated stainless steel (grades 304, 316, or 321). • Outer Braid: Grade SS 304 or SS 316 stainless steel wire mesh providing abrasion, corrosion, and high-pressure resistance. • Layers: Single-braid for standard pressures or double-braid for heavy-duty, high-pressure utility. Technical Parameters • Size / Nominal Bore (NB): 1/4 inch up to 12+ inches (custom industrial sizes up to 32 inches available). • Temperature Range: • Rubber/CPE core: -40°C to 150°C. • SS/PTFE or All-Metal core: -200°C to +600°C (up to 800°C for specialized AISI 321/316 grades). • Pressure Ratings: Vacuum-rated up to 300+ bar depending on diameter, wall thickness, and braid layers. • Manufacturing Standards: Conforms to ISO 10380, BS 6501, or ASTM/ASME guidelines. End Connections • Threaded fittings (BSP, NPT, JIC, Female Swivel) • Flanged ends (ANSI, DIN, PN16/PN40) • Quick-connect, Camlock, or Tri-clamp configurations If you can share the application (e.g., plumbing, hydraulics, steam, or automotive fuel) and the required length or size, I can help narrow down the exact pressure rating and fittings you need.
