Hot Bond® - Plastic Tubing and Hose Thermal Bonding

HOT BOND® - THERMAL BONDING

is a process by which thermoplastic tubing or hose is bonded together using a proprietary heat process into a neat ribbon, offering the uncommon combination of reduced cost and improved aesthetics to your product. No solvents, which could migrate and cause contamination of adjoining surfaces or materials, are used in the bonding process.

Various sizes, quantities, and configurations make it easy to design HOT BOND into a new product or to retrofit an existing item.

The blend of the HOT BOND process and NewAge® Industries' vast tubing and hose inventory provides faster delivery, at a lower cost, than a typical custom extrusion. Prototyping is easy, and both long and short runs are equally cost effective and welcome.

The HOT BOND® process can be applied to either stock tubing or hose or to custom extrusions. NewAge® Industries can HOT BOND reinforced hose to unreinforced tubing, half inch to three quarter inch sizes, colored to clear; the choices are nearly endless. Then we can cut, coil, strip back, or assemble as necessary. The final product can be finished as needed.

WHY HOT BOND?
• Saves time and money on installation: By eliminating the repetitive effort needed for multiple routing during installation, a savings of 50% or more can be realized.
• A neat appearance: HOT BOND visually shows your attention to design while enhancing the overall quality of your product.
• Easier line traceability: Quick troubleshooting translates into saved time and expense.
• Saves space: A ribbon of bonded tubing and hose is more exact in dimension than a bundle, permitting a more compact design.
• HOT BOND: is available only from NewAge Industries.

CHOOSE YOUR BOND STRENGTH & CONFIGURATION

Trace lines quickly and easily with different colors.

• PERMANENT BOND: Offering maximum durability, permanently bonded tubing and hose will not separate without cutting tools (which should be used carefully to leave the tubing or hose wall undamaged).

• STRIPPABLE BOND: Provides flexibility during installation by permitting separation of individual tubes from the "ribbon" for fitting purposes. Tools are typically not needed--simply twist the tubing or hose at the bond and peel back--a quick and easy process.

• SKIP BOND: Lengths of bonded material alternate with unbonded sections at regular intervals that you specify.

Two or more tubes are possible in many configurations, up to a maximum finished width of 2-1/8".
