Causes of problems with steel wire braided rubber hose reinforcement

2022-11-14

Generally speaking, our common high-pressure hoses are mainly steel wires, which are determined by their carrying capacity. If there is a problem with the reinforcement layer of the high-pressure hose, it can be analyzed and solved based on two points.

The high-pressure hose is broken, causing the steel wire layer to rust
The cause of the problem is that the ground cover is corroded by liquids in the production site or corrosive substances in the factory. Thereby reducing the service life of the hose. When the steel wire braided hose breaks, you may wish to peel off the outer rubber around the broken hose and observe whether the wrapped steel wire is rusted or corroded.

Irregular broken wires in the reinforcing layer in the hose
After the steel wire braided the rubber outer layer of the hose, it was found that the reinforcement layer was not rusted, but there were irregular broken wires. The main reason for this is that the hose is constantly subjected to high-frequency impact, and the steel wires in the reinforcement layer are crossed. Because these wires are woven together, the pressure often changes during use, and the intersections can move and cause friction, causing the wires to break.
What are the consequences of improper use of steel wire braided hose? Under the premise of ensuring the quality, if it is used improperly, its service life will be greatly shortened. Sometimes the steel wire braided hose is subjected to frequent and severe pressure shocks, causing the hose to rupture. This condition is usually not caused by excessive static pressure, but is related to the severity and frequency of pressure shocks.
