0 | June 29th, 2009 | Posted in Uncategorized

10000wp-40000bp-hi-pressure

Dynaflex has developed a high performance hose which can satisfy dynamic application requirements that does not encounter problems such as lack of flexibility, greater weight, and poor handling as compared to heavier rubber manufacturers. It is yellow so it can be easily seen under water. Recommended for sub-sea control systems and other applications where high working pressure coupled with low volumetric expansion and corrosion resistance is essential. The hose is wireless and stainless steel couplings are available for corrosion resistance. Below is an explanation of the different grades of stainless steel and different types of fittings used.

What are the different grades of stainless steel?

The three most popular types are 303, 304, and 316. 303 and 304 are a lower grade material or made from a material that prohibits rust. 316 stainless steel is suitable for salt water applications and prohibits rust.

What is the difference between 304 and 316 stainless steel.

316 stainless has 2.0% to
2.5% molybdenum compared
to 304, which has about 0.5%.

316 stainless
generally costs
25%-35% more than
304.

There are 3 different types of fittings available for this high pressure hose, “M” fittings, Male Pipe Thread fittings, and JIC fittings. “M” fittings are rated for 10,000psi working pressure and 40,000 psi burst pressure.

TypeMthumb

Male Pipe Thread fittings work with the use of an interference fit of the mating male and female threads to obtain a leak proof joint. Male Pipe Thread fittings are rated for 15,000 working pressure.

Joint Industry Conference specifies a 37 degree angle flare or seat to be used with high pressure hydraulic tubing. Couplings specified as JIC have 37 degree tapered seats.

Available in twinline or multiline configurations.

Lengths up to 2500ft.

Alternative tube and cover materials are available for certain applications.

Hydraulic Hose & Fittings Distributors - 5 things to do to help get through 2009

0 | January 27th, 2009 | Posted in Uncategorized

2009-Hose-and-Fitting-Dist.

As we enter January 2009, economic forces have made it difficult on distributors. Inventories have been tightened up and less business means more competition for orders. Everyone is making an effort to maintain profit margins and improve cash flow.  Here are some suggestions to help you deal with these issues in the New Year.

1. Consider buying your thermoplastic hose in the United States instead of a container overseas.

hosecontainership

Why buy hose or fittings by the container load just to watch your $$$$ sit in inventory? Make your money work for you. With competitive pricing, faster delivery, and lower freight cost, you can put your money back on the bottom line where it belongs. Due to increased competition, thermoplastic hose prices are reasonable in the United States. Look for a supplier who has low overhead, does not spend a lot on advertising, and has up to date extruding and braiding equipment.

2. If you purchase twin line thermoplastic hose, consider buying exactly what you need instead of stocking extra.

Unless your customers need thermoplastic twin line hose the same day, consider ordering what you need to reduce inventory. You may need to order 100ft – 250ft. This may be better than having a pile of scrap at the end of the year.

3. Consider buying 2 piece fittings instead of 1 piece fitting for your hydraulic needs.

A 2 piece fitting may require more storage space, but there is a savings of about 30% with a 2 piece fitting. Also with a 2 piece fitting, it is easier to see that the barb is pushed into the hose.

4. Consider using smaller inner diameter hose for OEM applications.

As demand has increased for smaller hose, and more needs to be done in less space, you may want to consider thermoplastic hose. SAE100R7 Black and SAE100R8 Black Thermoplastic hose can be made as small as 1/8 inch and 3/16 inch inner diameter and is very flexible for tight applications.

5. Compare switching air hose applications from rubber hose to thermoplastic.

As pricing for rubber air hose has gone up over the last couple of years, thermoplastic hose pricing has not changed much. A disadvantage for thermoplastic hose would be you may need to use crimp fittings. But with the low price of thermoplastic hose as opposed to rubber hose, it may offset the cost of crimping and using crimp fittings. This would be true especially for longer hose assemblies.

Miniature Thermoplastic Twin Line Hose

0 | October 17th, 2008 | Posted in SAE100R7, Uncategorized

Dyna Flex Inc. can now manufacture miniature thermoplastic hose which can service as a small high pressure hydraulic twin line hose. Advances in our twining process has enable us to do twin line as small as 1/8 inch inner diameter for our SAE100R7 twin line hose.

Dyna-Flex-Twin-Line-Hose Twin line hose can be used for hydraulic, motion control, and for pump and valve applications.  Our smallest 1/8 inch I.D. can handle 3000psi. Minimum bend radius with 1/8in I.D. hose is 50% more flexible than 3/16 inch I.D. and 125% more flexible that 1/4 inch I.D. Dyna Flex 711 series hose.

Smaller I.D. twin line hose enables more footage and cost savings over larger I.D. hose. On a hose reel more footage can cover less space. The urethane cover holds well for exterior use. Standard temperature range is from -65 degrees farenheit to 212 degrees farenheit.

Dyna Flex Inc. 711 (SAE100R7 hose) is lighter than standard push-on hose.

0 | September 6th, 2008 | Posted in Pneumatic Hose, Push On Hose, SAE100R7, Uncategorized

Dyna Flex SAE100R7 series 711 Series hose is the same or lighter than standard push on air hose, SAE100R1AT, and SAE100R2AT hose in 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2 inch Inner Diameter.

With long hose lengths and large quantity requirements there is opportunity for cost savings for shipping and raw material cost. With increased pressures to save on freight and rising price on rubber hydraulic hose, smart purchasing agents and engineers will need to look to lighter and flexible materials to substitute for increased profits and flexiblility.
If you consider weight, Dyna Flex Inc. 711 series SAE100R7 black thermoplastic hose is at least 14% lighter in 1/4 inch inner diameter and 3/8 inch inner diameter and is the same for 1/2 inch inner diameter. As an extra benefit Dyna Flex Inc. hose can be made as twinline in black SAE100R7 twin line conductive ( Dyna Flex Series 711T) and SAE100R7 non-conductive orange(Dyna Flex Inc. 7110T) configurations.
 

If you consider bend radius, Dyna Flex Inc. 711 series thermoplastic hose a smaller minimum bend radius for 1/4 inch inner diameter and 3/8 inch inner diameter and is the same for 1/2 inch inner diameter.  As an extra benefit Dyna Flex Inc. has a 1/8 inch inner diameter hose with a 1/2 inch minimum bend radius in conductive SAE100R7 black (Dyna Flex Series 701-02) and non-conductive  orange SAE100R7 (Flex 7110-02) configurations.

Disadvantages of thermoplastic over rubber are hose ends would need to be crimped as opposed to being pushed in by hand. It would be also easier to uncoil and coil push-on hose.

If you have an application which has lengths requirements of 50ft and longer and hose crimping is not an issue, Dyna Flex Inc. Series 711 hose may be a viable alternative. Couplings can be supplied in carbon steel, stainless steel, and brass. Please contact us for specification sheets.

Patented design has advantages over standard wireless Paint Spray Hose

0 | July 30th, 2008 | Posted in Uncategorized

Airless Wireless paint spray hose cost savings achieved by elimination of the need for a anti-static tube.

A kink resistant, flexible, thermoplastic hose for high pressure and high velocity flow is provided with a flexible braided reinforcement layer containing a patented static drain for ground. One textile fiber yarn with conductive fibers braided with non-conducting textile yarns to form the braided reinforcement layer. An abrasion resistant outer layer of polyurethane is extruded over the conductive braid reinforcement.

For higher burst pressures and better flexibility, a second braided reinforcement may also be provided over the initial layer. We offer airless wireless paint spray hose in the following configurations:

7100 series one braid Wireless paint spray hose blue 3300PSI

7102 series two braid Wireless paint spray hose blue

8100 series Wireless paint spray hose red 5000-6000psi pressure hose constructed with aramid fiber and a nylon tube.

A complete line of spring guards, along with metric and non-metric fittings are available from stock. New patented design yields the following advantages over standard paint spray hose.

  • Lighter than comparable wire reinforced hose.
  • Flexible Nylon
    Innercore
  • High Abrasion resistant
    polyurethane
  • Custom made paint spray lenghts up to 100feet
