Why choose UPE material for wear-resistant hose?

   In the chemical industry, products with super wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant solvents, or materials such as petroleum, are often transported, so a hose with good acid resistance, corrosion resistance, or oil resistance must be used as the conveying medium. At present, the most widely used acid-resistant, super-wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant hoses in the industry are made of UPE (ultra-high molecular polyethylene) lining materials.   So what is a UPE hose?  Upe is the English abbreviation of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. It is a kind of hose with a variety of excellent properties. Its density is lower than that of water, and its…

   In the chemical industry, products with super wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant solvents, or materials such as petroleum, are often transported, so a hose with good acid resistance, corrosion resistance, or oil resistance must be used as the conveying medium.

   So what is a UPE hose?
  Upe is the English abbreviation of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. It is a kind of hose with a variety of excellent properties. Its density is lower than that of water, and its wear resistance exceeds that of certain metals. It is a new material that replaces steel with plastic. The following briefly introduces its main properties:
  Abrasion resistance: The abrasion resistance of upe materials ranks in the forefront among all the current hose materials. When it comes to upe hoses, people will first think of its abrasion resistance, because the abrasion resistance of upe hoses with a molecular weight of 1.5 million is very high. It is very impressive, and what is even more gratifying is that the higher the molecular weight, the more wear-resistant the material, even more than many metal materials (such as carbon steel, stainless steel, bronze, etc.).


  Anti-aging: upe hose has stable performance and good anti-aging performance. For example, the hose made of upe material can still be used normally if it is buried underground for 50 years.
Corrosion resistance: upe pipe is not corroded in acid solution, can be used in concentrated acid at 80 °C, and has stable performance in 75% concentrated acid and 20% shoal acid, and it is also stable to seawater and liquid detergents .
   The LT1202H UPE high-pressure multifunctional hose produced by our factory contains the above properties. Its main application fields are: widely used in chemical industry, steel, construction, food, medicine and other fields. The unique product characteristics and high saturation lining layer mean that the product hardly reacts with any substances (grease, corrosive chemicals, etc.), and the absolutely neutral odor of the product also determines its suitability for food The beverage industry and the production and use of pharmaceutical products.
  Inner layer: UPE and EPDM synthetic rubber
  Reinforcement layer: 2-layer braided or 4-layer wound super-strength and high-flexible steel wire
  Cover: Black/Red/White/Blue Ozone-resistant, UV-resistant, abrasion-resistant NV or EPDM cover (can be covered with UPE wear-resistant layer)
  Temperature range: -30°C~82°C (-22°F~180°F)
  Reference standard: EN12115
