Parker 17.2 Bar Hydraulic Steam Hose, SH-2

The Parker SH-1 Hydraulic Steam Hose is a high-quality hose designed specifically for conveying steam in hydraulic systems. Here are some key features and considerations: Construction: The hose is constructed with a black EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer) rubber inner tube, providing resistance to steam and ensuring reliable performance under high temperatures. It typically features one or two layers of high-tensile steel wire reinforcement for added strength and durability. Pressure Rating: The Parker SH-1 Hydraulic Steam Hose is rated for a working pressure of 250 psi (pounds per square inch), which is equivalent to approximately 1.7 MPa (megapascals). This means that the hose is suitable for hydraulic systems operating within this pressure range. Temperature Range: The hose is designed to withstand high temperatures associated with steam applications. It can typically handle temperatures ranging from -40°C to +232°C (-40°F to +450°F), depending on the specific model and size. Size and Length: The hose is available in various sizes and lengths to suit different hydraulic systems and applications. It's essential to select the appropriate size and length of hose based on the specific requirements of your application. End Fittings: The hose may come equipped with various end fittings, including BSP (British Standard Pipe) fittings, JIC (Joint Industry Council) fittings, or others, depending on the specific requirements of the application. It's important to ensure that the hose fittings are compatible with your hydraulic system. Applications: The Parker SH-1 Hydraulic Steam Hose is suitable for a wide range of steam applications in industries such as food processing, pharmaceuticals, refineries, chemical plants, and more. It can be used to convey steam in hydraulic machinery, equipment, and systems where reliable fluid conveyance under high temperature and pressure is required.
