4-Ply Blast Hose
4-ply blast hose is used in industrial settings where external scuffing and occasional light vehicle traffic is expected. It can be used with all common blast media.
Description of Operation
Clemco 4-ply blast hose accepts properly sized blast couplings and nozzle holders. The coupled hose can attach to any blast machine fitted with quick coupling connections. 4-ply hose is widely used in shipyards and railyards because it stands up to external abrasions from being dragged about the blast site. The tough outer casing of 4-ply blast hose can even withstand occasional light vehicle traffic without collapsing. For applications where 4-ply blast hoses are used (for their more durable outer casing), a 10- to 15-foot length of Clemco Supa hose can be connected as the last section before the nozzle. This whip hose is easier for the operator to bend and maneuver.
Advantages
- 4-ply hose has a durable outer casing compared to 2-braid and Supa hose
- Inner tube wall of 1/4-inch thick SBR rubber treated with static-dissipating compound
- Four-layer outer casing of cloth and rubber-impregnated fiber winding
- Casing is pin-pricked to prevent formation of air pockets between layers
