There are times when applications require a more durable tubing or hose product than standard reinforced or unreinforced stock material. Applications may present high temperatures or pres-sures, excessive friction, attack by chemicals or corrosives, kink or crush possibilities, or other parameters that need a special hose. Perhaps you need to bundle multiple tubes of dissimilar material, or require electrical conductivity or grounding, or simply choose to improve the aesthetics of your product.

Stainless steel or fabric overbraiding allows increased pressure capabilities for both reinforced hose and unreinforced tubing. Multiple layers are also possible.

NewAge® Industries is prepared to provide you with custom overbraiding and/or jacketing, uniquely suited to meet your application's requirements. We offer a broad mix of materials at a reasonable cost. Stainless steel overbraided PTFE (fluoropolymer) hose, for instance, will handle up to 3000 psi working pressure*--more than 20 times that of standard fluoropolymer tubing. Straight walled, stainless steel overbraided PTFE hose conforms to SAE 100R14 standards. NewAge Industries offers straight walled material in sizes ranging from 1/8" I.D. to 1-3/8" I.D. and convoluted material in 1/4" I.D. to 2" I.D. *A permanent fitting must be installed for use in high pressure applications. The listed pressure is meant only as a guide to aid in design. Field testing should be performed to determine the actual value for the application.

Bundling a number of dissimilar tubes keeps them together and offers increased protection to the tubing or hose within.

In addition to stainless steel and fabric coverings, such as nylon and polyester, the following materials are available: Brass Bronze Carbon steel Copper Kevlar® Nomex® Other fabrics Most thermoplastic materials

Colored fabrics give you several advantages - easy run traceability, increased pressure usage, and extra protection against heat, abrasion, and kinking.
