NYLON HOSE BURST SLEEVE
_________________________________________________________________ H OS E BUR S T PR OT E CT I ON NYLON SLEEVE FLEXEQUIP nylon sleeve is braided by the high tenacity multi-filament nylon yarn which has excellent abrasion resistance, UV resistance, chemical resistance, and dustproof. It is an economical yet durable solution to protect hoses for longer life, particularly under severe abrasion and degradation conditions and offers limited burst and containment protection to your employees and asset at the same time. This smooth nylon sleeve can be easily installed over hoses, chains or cables, and then secured with nylon cable ties or band-clamps. It’d be better to heat the cut edges of the sleeve. Velcro closure is available for undetachable hoses. CHARACTERISTICS PART NO# – HT21- ** (** refers to the inner diameter=ID)

FIRE SLEEVE & FIRE TAPE INTRODUCTION FIRE RESISTANT FIBREGLASS INSULATION SLEEVES Distag QCS offers a range of high-quality Fire & heat resistant protective wrapping for hydraulic hoses, cables and welding leads. Our Industrial grade Firesleeve withstands repeated exposures to molten steel, molten aluminium and molten glass up to 1650°C. The heavy coating of the iron oxide red silicone rubber compound sheds molten metal splash immediately, so very little heat transfer occurs. A cost-effective product that will minimise downtime and production losses for any industry relying on hydraulic machinery. Our Industrial grade Firesleeve will withstand continuous exposure to 260°C; up to 1090°C for 15-20 minutes; up to 1650°C for 15-30 seconds. Our Firesleeve is constructed from high bulk glass fibre knitted sleeve. Excellent modulus of elasticity makes it an excellent choice for bundling hoses, tubes and cables in a variety of hostile environments. Firesleeve insulation properties provide personnel with effective protection against burns from hot hoses and flexible streamlines while reducing heat energy losses. It can be used for wrapping single hoses or multiple-hose looms. across a wide range of sectors such as: Steel Mills, Tunnelling, Drill rigs, Mining, Welding, Gas Construction, Offshore Oil, Marine, Sub-sea, Aerospace, Locomotive &Automotive.

FIRE SLEEVE STANDARD
_________________________________________________________________ FI R E S LE E V E S T A N DA R D PROTECTION FROM THE HAZARDS OF HIGH HEAT & OCCASIONAL FLAME FLEXEQUIP Firesleeve is designed to protect hoses, wires and cables from the hazards of high heat and occasional flame. Made of braided fibreglass yarns in a flexible substrate, it is then coated with high-grade silicone rubber. Resistant to hydraulic fluids, lubricating oils, and fuels, FLEXEQUIP Firesleeve insulates against energy loss in piping and hosing, protects employees from burns and allows “bundling” of wires, hoses, and cables. The thick formulation of silicone rubber sheds molten splash, slag, welding splatter, electrical or grinding sparks and contamination. It also provides protection from ozone, UV and abrasion. CHARACTERISTICS MATERIALS – E-glass fibre, Silicone Rubber coating THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY – ≥0.045 W/(m·K) CONSTRUCTION – Braided SIZE RANGE – 1/4″(6mm) – 6″(150mm) WORKING TEMPERATURE – Continuous working at 500°F (260°C), peaks at 3000°F (1650°C) COLOUR OPTIONS – Standard: Iron Oxide Red; Others: Blue, Black, Yellow, Grey, etc. on request ROLL LENGTH – ID 6mm ~ 75mm: 20 meters / roll; ID 80mm ~ 100mm: 15 meters / roll; ID 105mm ~ 150mm: 10 meters / roll AVAILABLE OPTIONS – Special bulk packaging (maximize productivity/minimize waste) Pre-cut short length Custom printing TYPICAL INDUSTRIES – Hose Fabrication, Oil & Gas, OEM, Locomotive, Metals

FIRE TAPE
SILICONE RUBBER / COATED
_________________________________________________________________ S I LI CON E R UBBE R S E LF- FU S I N G T A PE – FLEXEQUIP Silicone Rubber Self-fusing Tape is a non-adhesive yet selfbonding to itself and other silicone rubber sleeve and tape. It withstands high temperature, occasional flame and molten splashes, and exhibits stable chemical properties with a resistance to fuel, oil, water, acids, and many other solvents. It’s typically used as an end wrap tape for fire sleeve, preventing hydraulic oils and contaminants leaking into the inside with better thermal insulation. When wrapped in a ring or spiral pattern under tension (stretched by app.250%), the tape can fuse to itself over time, no need to use heat or chemical sprays to set it. It’s easy to remove and leaves no sticky residue behind.
CHARACTERISTICS MATERIALS – Silicone rubber THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY – ≥0.25 W/(m·K) WORKING TEMPERATURE – Continuous working at 500°F (260°C), peaks at 3002°F (1650°C) COLOUR OPTIONS – Standard: Iron Oxide Red; Others: Black, Red, Blue, White, Grey, Clear TYPICAL INDUSTRIES – Hose Fabrication, Oil & Gas, OEM, Locomotive, Metals, Glass, etc.
SPECIFICATION Silicone FireTape is a non-adhesive, iron oxide red silicone rubber tape, designed to withstand continuous exposure to temperatures up to 260°C. Silicone FireTape is also ideal for use as an end sealant in conjunction with Firesleeve to prevent hydraulic oils and contaminants leaking into the inner braid.
_________________________________________________________________ S I LI CON E COA T E D FI BR E G LA S S T A PE – FLEXEQUIP Silicone Coated Fiberglass Tape, made of bulk fibreglass tape with silicone rubber coating, can protect hoses, wires and cables from the hazards of high temperature and occasional flame. When exposed to flame, the silicone rubber coating transforms to a crust, creating a protective SiO2 refractory layer. The tape is usually used to wrap complex shapes or varied dimension tapered pipes. Typically, the tape is overlapped by 50% when winding. Also, it can be installed in situations where tubular fire sleeve cannot be used, and when hoses, wires and cables cannot be disconnected for sleeving.
CHARACTERISTICS MATERIALS – E-glass fiber, Silicone Rubber Coating WORKING TEMPERATURE – Continuous working at 500°F (260°C), peaks at 3000°F (1650°C) COLOUR OPTIONS – Standard: Iron Oxide Red; Others: Blue, Black, Yellow, Grey, etc. on request TYPICAL INDUSTRIES – Hose Fabrication, Oil & Gas, OEM, Locomotive, Metals, Glass, etc.
________________________________________________
SPECIFICATION FireTape has an excellent modulus of elasticity and can wrap any diameter hose or cable typically in a spiral wrap with a 50% overlap. Can be installed without disconnecting hoses or cables.
