Low Temperature Hose Service - Technical Bulletin

As North America's largest manufacturer of industrial metal hose products, Hose Master regularly conducts original research on the properties of various steels.   Hose Master has analyzed the effects of low temperature or cryogenic service on various alloys.

ChlorSafe® - The Ultimate Chlorine Transfer Hose

When it comes to the stringent demands of a chlorine transfer application, safety is the #1 rule.  Hose Master has created ChlorSafe® - the latest generation of chlorine transfer hose. When designing a chlorine transfer hose, Hose Master not only considered the effects of dry chlorine, but also considered what happens when moisture combines with dry chlorine to form hydrochloric acid. As a result, ChlorSafe® assemblies the safest and longest lasting available anywhere today.

ChlorSafe® assemblies are manufactured in compliance with the Chlorine Institute  Pamphlet 6  Appendix A, Latest Edition. For more information, call Hose Master Technical Sales at (800) 221-2319.

Hose Master's FloppyGuard™ Stripwound Metal Hose

  Various FloppyGuard™ hose products may look and 
  feel the same, but there are differences that can make
  big improvements in performance and service life.  At
  Hose Master, our floppy interlock and squarelock
  hoses are manufactured with a balanced profile which
  results in a hose that is both extremely flexible and rugged.  In addition, every foot of Hose Master's  FloppyGuard™ products are ultrasonically cleaned. 

FloppyGuard™ products are ideally suited  for, but not limited to, applications such as hose armor or liner, wiring harnesses, instrumentation and testing devices, as well as protection for hoses used in the food service industry.
