Hoses serve many great purposes and make some tasks possible and easier than they would be otherwise. Liquids and gasses can be carried through hoses from one point to another, but you will need the right kind of hose with the right kind of fittings to get the job done right. Hose Customizations can make nearly any job that requires a hose possible.
When a poor quality hose is used, it can fail causing stress, messes and could even be hazardous to your health. Depending on what you have flowing through the hose, it could be a costly mistake that could have easily been avoided if you had purchased a high-quality hose and the fittings to go with it.
Do you know what material your hose should be constructed of?
Stainless steel hoses and fittings can be used for high temperature areas and products. It will retain the like-new appearance much longer than other materials used for hoses and fittings. Typically, this material is used for steam, water, oil, and gas. It is durable enough for both low and high-pressure uses.
Brass materials is a more affordable option than stainless steel. Most homes use copper fittings for both heating and plumbing because of the durability and because of the interchangeability with other copper pipes and fittings. Air, natural gas, and oil can all be safely put through brass. Brass will resist corrosion and can also be used in high and low pressure uses.
Steel is a corrosive material used for fittings. When corrosion is not a problem, steel can be a very affordable alternative to consider for water, gas, oil and steam. Remember when considering using steel that it can rust and will need replacement far sooner than the other available materials you have to choose from. Like the other materials, it can be used in both high and low pressure uses.
