The pressure rating is determined by the reinforcement layer construction (textile braid, wire braid, or spiral wire), material tensile strength, number of reinforcement layers, and the quality of bonding between layers. Higher pressure applications require multiple reinforcement layers or spiral wire construction.
Select based on chemical compatibility charts matching the inner liner material (EPDM, NBR, PTFE, etc.) to the specific chemicals being transferred, considering concentration, temperature, and exposure duration. Always verify with manufacturer chemical resistance data.
Common failure causes include: exceeding pressure/temperature ratings, chemical incompatibility, abrasion from improper routing, UV degradation, improper bend radius causing reinforcement fatigue, and incompatible end fittings causing stress concentrations.
