Why Flexible Hose?
- Fewer connections mean a safer fluid system and far less leakage – period
- Greatly reduce chance of system pressure drop and media entrapment
- Lower overall repair/replace material labor costs
- Ease of cleaning
- Compensation for slight dimensional mismatches between connections
Delivering Difference-Making Solutions:
“Initially, I was a bit skeptical when Swagelok Pittsburgh | Tri-State Area approached me about a no-cost Hose Advisory. Though I believed we’d receive some value from such an audit, I also saw it as a way for them to simply sell us more hoses. Once we began the actual walk-through – and I heard the probing questions the Advisors asked, I knew we had agreed to something that would truly boost our site’s productivity and efficiency.
We then received our highly detailed Swagelok Hose Management Report, which specifically addressed our numerous hose-kinking issues – and how those were causing the exceptionally loud pump noise in our Reactor Room. Even better, the report also gave us easy-to-follow recommendations and instructions on how to actually fix our hose problems.
Result: Noise levels dramatically reduced! In addition, my boss used the findings as a first step toward making hose maintenance a priority here. We learned SO much about how to select the ideal hose for a particular application…and how to relieve hose stress in general. In fact, we’re now applying these Swagelok lessons to solve noise concerns throughout similar areas within our facility.
On a related note, our subsequent Swagelok hose order arrived expertly packaged – with each hose separately bagged and clearly labeled to coincide with the findings in our Swagelok Advisory report. We were thus able to quickly and accurately replace our troublesome hoses. Thanks, Swagelok, for your top-quality products AND always-outstanding support services!”
