Key Features
Made from ASTM seamless tubing (SS304/SS316, Carbon Steel, Aluminum) with a smooth inner bore to help maintain smooth fluid flow.
Size range from DN15 to DN300, compatible with standard low-pressure industrial hose assemblies.
Machined hose barb ridges improve hose retention with hose clamps, reducing hose movement risk under standard flow.
Protective surface treatments like galvanizing or painting available for carbon steel models to improve wear and corrosion resistance in tough environments.
Applications
Industrial Hose Assemblies
Connects rigid pipe systems to flexible rubber or PVC hoses in low-pressure fluid systems.
Chemical & Process Piping
Used in chemical transfer lines where SS304/SS316 corrosion resistance is required.
Liquid & Bulk Transfer
Installed in municipal, construction, and agricultural discharge systems for water, oil, and general industrial liquids.
Customization
Thread & End Configurations: Machined with standard NPT, BSPT, or NPSM threads. Unthreaded plain-end options are available for direct welding to pipes or flanges.
Material & Grade Selection: Available in SS316, SS304, Carbon Steel, and Aluminum to suit specific fluid media and operating environments.
Dimensional & Surface Options: Custom sizing, wall thickness, hose barb profiles, and surface finishes (such as electro-galvanizing or protective coating) manufactured according to technical drawings or sample specs.
Quality Assurance
Our manufacturing process follows defined quality control procedures:
ISO 9001:2015 Certified Manufacturing Facility: Rigorous Quality Management System overseeing raw material intake, in-process machining, and final dispatch.
Full Product Traceability: Heat numbers are stamped or laser-etched on fitting bodies for batch raw material tracking.
Third-Party Verification: Compliance documents are available according to customer requirements. Independent inspections by SGS, TÜV, or BV can be arranged upon request.
Packaging & Logistics
Thread ends are fitted with protective plastic caps to prevent damage during transit.
Products are sealed in heavy-duty polyethylene bags and packed into reinforced corrugated cartons.
Palletized using export-standard wooden pallets for ocean and air shipment.
