CONSTRUCTION

Jacket:

  • high tenacity multifilament polyester yarn, circular woven in twill weave
  • 2F: 2-ply warp threads
  • 3F: 3-ply warp threads, heavy duty construction for better abrasion resistance

Lining:

  • high grade EPDM rubber, cold flexible, suitable also for hot water
  • excellent resistance to sea water, a wide range of chemicals, UV and ozone
  • coextruded CR rubber adhesive layer, penetrates during vulcanisation completely into the weaving structure
  • this style of rubber lining guarantees a smooth inner tube with low friction loss and an excellent adhesion between lining and jacket

External coating:

  • abrasive resistant synthetic coating to withstand the impact of oil, chemicals and heat
  • additional protection against mechanical damage at the jacket

SPECIAL OPTIONS

  • Single lengths longer than 30 m (100 ft)
    25 – 75 mm up to 1,000 m (3,300 ft)
    90 – 110 mm up to 500 m (1,650 ft)
  • other dimensions
  • colour of coating according to customer specification

Note that special options are subject to a higher price and a minimum order of 1,000 m (3,300 ft) per dimension. Production short lengths and overor shortproduction up to 10 % of the total order quantity have to be accepted. Please enquire for details !
