What is a stainless steel corrugated hose?

Stainless steel corrugated hose is a flexible stainless steel pipe with a corrugated wall structure, combining flexibility and strength. Common materials for this type of hose include 304 and 316L stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, and pressure resistance. The corrugated design allows for flexible bending and adaptability to complex installation environments, while also enhancing pressure-bearing capacity through the "ring effect" of the corrugations. Some models also feature a multi-layer construction, such as an inner corrugated tube, a middle stainless steel braided mesh, and an outer PVC sheath, to enhance pressure and impact resistance.

Stainless steel corrugated hose is widely used in gas transportation, the chemical industry, HVAC, the automotive industry, and aerospace. For example, this hose is often used in connecting pipes to household gas stoves and water heaters due to its explosion-proof, age-resistant, excellent sealing, and long service life. In industrial environments, it can be used to transport corrosive media or high-temperature fluids, or as a flexible connector in hydraulic systems. Stainless steel corrugated hose offers excellent corrosion and temperature resistance, resisting the erosion of chemicals in water and high temperatures, ensuring water safety and purity.

When using stainless steel corrugated hoses, be careful to avoid excessive bending or mechanical damage, and regularly check for loose joints and corrosion. Gas hoses must also comply with relevant national standards, such as GB/T 26002, to ensure safety and reliability.
