Custom Hose Assembly & Fitting Considerations
The experts at MSP Seals have the knowledge and skills to engineer the right custom air hose assembly and custom hose fitting solution for virtually any application. Some of the factors the team considers when designing and creating a custom solution include:
- Hose type. The right custom air hose can help maximize the life expectancy of the assembly, ensuring durability and efficiency. When selecting a custom hydraulic hose for any application, it’s crucial to consider key characteristics such as size, temperature range, specific application needs, the type of material being conveyed, operating pressure, end connection requirements, and delivery method; all encapsulated in the STAMPED guideline. These considerations are vital for optimal performance and longevity.
- Hose length. A hose assembly’s overall length (OAL) is a critical measure of its extent from end to end, especially in applications where space is at a premium. This dimension is not just a numerical value but a reflection of the assembly’s adaptability to various settings, including those requiring custom molded hoses or custom air hoses. In space-constrained environments, the precision of this measurement is paramount. The hose cut length, an essential component of custom hose fittings and assemblies, refers to the hose part itself. It is accurately determined by subtracting the cut-off factor – the length from the bottom of the ferrule/collar to the end of the fitting or internal sealing surface – from the OAL. This careful calculation ensures that each custom hydraulic hose or fitting perfectly suits its intended application.
- Hose fitting orientation. In custom air hose assemblies, particularly those involving brass tube fittings or custom hydraulic fittings, orientation plays a pivotal role, especially for angled fittings. Incorrect installation orientation can drastically impair the assembly’s performance and longevity. This aspect is crucial in maintaining the efficiency of custom air hoses and custom molded hoses. The precise orientation is determined by the angle in degrees, measured clockwise. For assemblies with an overall length (OAL) up to 24 inches, the tolerance is within ±3°, ensuring exact alignment for optimal performance. For longer assemblies, those exceeding 24 inches OAL, the tolerance is slightly broader at ±5°. This meticulous attention to orientation details is vital for ensuring that each custom hose fitting functions at its best, contributing to the overall durability and effectiveness of the custom air hose assembly.
