Basic Hydraulics and Accessories

The construction of a braided, flexible all-metal hose includes a tube of corrugated bronze. The tube is covered with the woven metallic braid to protect against abrasion and to provide increased resistance to pressure. Metal hose is also available in steel, aluminum, Monel®, stainless steel, and other corrosion-resistant metals in diameters up to 3 in. and in lengths of 24 in. In addition to providing protection against abrasion and resistance to pressure, a flexible metal hose also dampens vibration. For example, the wind turbine can experience a considerable amount of vibration. The use of flexible hoses in such machines increases their portability equipment and dampens vibrations. Other considerations such as constant bending at high temperatures and pressures are extremely detrimental on most other types of hoses.
