Purpose
To protect the hose from excessive external abrasion and mechanical damage in rough applications.
Design
A lightweight black HDPE (High Density Poly Ethylene) ‘Safegard’ strip is spirally wound along the hose and secured by crimping at each end.
Limitations
Temperature Range -40˚C (-40˚F) up to 110˚C (230˚F).
Internal fluid temperatures up to +140˚C (284˚F) are acceptable, when external temperatures are ambient.
The minimum hose assembly length must be doubled if Safegard is being used, and the maximum assembly lengths for all sizes are capped at 20 metres (65 feet).
Safegard is available with anti-static properties and complies with the requirements of a static-dissipative cover within EN 16643. Request details upon enquiry.
