PVC Twin Welding Hose

Description

• Material:
  • PVC twin welding hoses are made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a durable and flexible thermoplastic material.
• Inner Tube:
  • The inner tube of the hose is designed to handle both oxygen and acetylene gases. It is often made from a material resistant to the chemical properties of these gases.
• Reinforcement:
  • Twin welding hoses typically have reinforcement layers, such as braided or spiraled synthetic fibers, to provide strength and durability.
• Color Coding:
  • To differentiate between the hoses carrying oxygen and acetylene, PVC twin welding hoses often have distinct color-coding:
    • Red Hose: Used for acetylene.
    • Green Hose: Used for oxygen.
• Size Range:
  • PVC twin welding hoses come in various sizes to accommodate different flow rates and welding applications.
• Pressure Rating:
  • These hoses are designed to handle specific pressure levels associated with oxy-acetylene welding. The pressure ratings for the oxygen and acetylene hoses may differ to prevent mixing of the gases.
• Flexibility:
  • PVC twin welding hoses are flexible, allowing for easy handling and maneuverability in welding operations.
• Temperature Resistance:
  • The hoses are designed to withstand the high temperatures generated during welding processes. They are also resistant to the heat produced by the gases.
• Kink Resistance:
  • Some PVC twin welding hoses are engineered to resist kinking, ensuring a continuous and unobstructed flow of gases during welding operations.
• Fittings:
  • The hoses are equipped with fittings suitable for connecting to welding equipment, regulators, torches, and other components of the oxy-acetylene system.
• Abrasion Resistance:
  • PVC twin welding hoses are often constructed to resist abrasion, as they may come into contact with rough surfaces during welding operations.
• Compliance Standards:
  • These hoses must comply with relevant safety standards and regulations for welding equipment. Ensuring compliance helps maintain a safe working environment.
