ZHENLONG FOCUS ON THE DEMAND, STRIVING FOR PURSUING INNOVATION
Metal covered hose for gas appliance connection is mainly used to connect LPG cylinder with gas stove and other gas equipments to ensure that the gas can be safely and stably transported to the gas appliance to meet the user's needs for cooking, heating, etc. It consists of three main layers the plastic sheath, metal sheath, and gas hose, and this structure can effectively prevent external damages such as corrosion, rodent bites, etc, and improve the service life and safety of the hose.

Metal wrapped hoses, also known as metal-covered hoses, are essential for ensuring the safe and stable transportation of gas from LPG cylinders to gas appliances like stoves, ovens, and water heaters. These hoses are designed to provide a secure, flexible connection that facilitates the reliable flow of gas, which is critical for household and commercial applications such as cooking, heating, and other gas-powered processes.
The construction of metal wrapped hoses involves three main layers, each serving a unique function to enhance the hose's durability, safety, and overall performance:
Inner Gas Hose: The core of the metal wrapped hose is typically made from synthetic rubber or thermoplastic materials. This inner hose is designed to handle the gas pressure and maintain the safe flow of gas. It is engineered to resist degradation from the gas and ensure that no leaks or contamination occur.
Metal Sheath: The middle layer is a protective metal covering, commonly made of stainless steel or galvanized steel. This sheath protects the inner hose from external physical damage, such as abrasions, punctures, and rodent bites. The metal sheath is typically corrugated or braided, which enhances its flexibility and allows the hose to bend without compromising strength. This also adds a layer of protection against external hazards that could cause hose failure.
Plastic Sheath: The outermost layer is a durable plastic covering that shields the hose from environmental factors like UV radiation, weather, and chemicals. This plastic sheath provides extra protection, especially for outdoor applications, and ensures that the hose remains functional in all conditions. It also adds an additional layer of defense against mechanical damage, ensuring the longevity and reliability of the hose.
Enhanced Safety: The layered construction of metal wrapped hoses improves safety by offering multiple lines of defense. The metal sheath and plastic outer coating protect the hose from external risks like corrosion, abrasion, and bites from rodents, which are common hazards in gas installations. This ensures that the hose remains intact, minimizing the risk of gas leaks and accidents.
Corrosion Resistance: The metal sheath, typically made from stainless steel or galvanized steel, provides excellent resistance to corrosion. This is especially important for hoses that may be exposed to moisture or harsh environmental conditions. The corrosion-resistant properties of the metal sheath ensure that the hose remains reliable and free from degradation over time.
Durability and Flexibility: Metal wrapped hoses are designed for durability and flexibility. The combination of the metal sheath and the inner gas hose ensures that the product can withstand mechanical stresses and environmental wear. The corrugated or braided design of the metal sheath allows the hose to bend easily and fit into tight spaces while maintaining strength and flexibility.
Extended Service Life: The multi-layer construction significantly extends the service life of the hose. The plastic outer sheath protects against UV rays and weather, while the metal sheath defends against abrasions and impacts. This combination ensures that the hose remains in service for many years without the need for frequent replacements, reducing maintenance costs.
Versatility in Applications: Metal wrapped hoses are highly versatile and can be used in a variety of gas appliance connections. Whether it’s connecting an LPG cylinder to a stove, water heater, or other appliances, these hoses can meet various needs. They are available in a range of sizes and configurations, making them suitable for both residential and commercial applications.
Weather and UV Resistance: The plastic sheath offers superior resistance to UV radiation and harsh weather conditions, making these hoses ideal for outdoor applications. Whether for residential BBQs, commercial kitchens, or industrial gas systems, the hose can withstand exposure to sunlight, rain, and extreme temperatures without losing its protective qualities.
LPG Cylinder to Gas Appliances: Metal wrapped hoses are commonly used to connect LPG cylinders to household gas stoves, ovens, and other cooking appliances. These hoses provide a flexible and safe connection that allows the efficient delivery of gas to the appliance for cooking and other domestic applications.
Outdoor Gas Appliances: For outdoor gas appliances such as BBQ grills, patio heaters, and outdoor kitchens, metal wrapped hoses are an excellent choice due to their weather resistance, durability, and flexibility. These hoses ensure a continuous, safe gas supply even in challenging outdoor environments.
Industrial and Commercial Installations: In industrial and commercial applications, where gas is used for heating, power generation, or manufacturing, metal wrapped hoses provide the necessary durability and safety features to connect gas cylinders or pipelines to large-scale equipment.
Water Heater and Heating Systems: Metal wrapped hoses are also used to connect gas water heaters, boilers, and other heating systems to the gas supply. These hoses ensure safe and stable gas flow for continuous hot water and heating services.
