Bulk material transfer is a discipline that is employed in a variety of industries including agriculture, petrochemicals, food production, and steel making. When it comes to bulk material transfer,
There are several important factors to note when designing a metal hose assembly: alloy, fittings, media, pressure, and so on. One of the most crucial factors that is
It comes as no surprise that metal corrugated hose is the preferred choice for high-temperature applications. But what about low-temperature applications? This is a question we frequently see
Today’s advanced oil refineries are far more versatile than those built even a decade ago; these high complexity refineries produce more valuable products using lower-cost feedstocks. This gives them
Corrosion is the enemy. One of the many features of metal hoses and expansion joints (EJs) is their ability to resist corrosive media or environments. It is therefore critical
Remember when we all wondered how the T-1000 was able to liquefy, shapeshift, and repair itself in Terminator 2 back in 1991? We’re told in the film that this
One of the topics we get asked frequently is when to use metal hose. There are many different types of hose available on the market. They include metal, rubber,
Temperature changes have a huge impact on design of expansion joints. Let’s take a look at this in one particular industry: pulp and paper. In papermaking, paper is made
Okay so maybe “Chemical Emperor” is a bit of a dramatic title… but it’s hard to downplay the fact that China has taken the entire chemical world by
Understanding pressure drop is critical to optimizing the performance of a fluid system. In order for liquid or gaseous media (“fluid”) to flow through a piping system, the fluid
Crude oil impacts our life in myriad ways. Every driver on the road is keenly aware of the relatively low gas prices we have been enjoying lately. Remember dire
Proper hose length is an overlooked, but absolutely critical factor in industrial applications. We are proud to introduce our latest hose assembly design tool: the Hose Assembly Length Calculation Guide.
Protecting flexible metal components: why is it so important? After all, they’re made out of metal, right? Corrugated hose and metallic expansion joints are common ways to allow for flexibility
Let’s investigate naphtha and ethane cracking. Ethylene – because its molecules have very distinctive and useful chemical properties – is manufactured in greater amounts than any other chemical. The
Metal hose for low temperature applications? It is well known in our industry that metal corrugated hose is the preferred choice for applications where high temperatures are present, but
