A flexible corrugated stainless steel hose, externally reinforced with stainless steel wire braid, fitted with steam union couplings on both ends.
Steam unions are designed for safe, leak-free connection and disconnection of steam lines without twisting the hose, making them ideal for high-temperature, high-pressure steam transfer.
Inner Hose
Corrugated stainless steel (SS304 or SS316) for flexibility and resistance to heat, pressure, and corrosion.
Braid Reinforcement
Single or double-layer stainless steel wire braid to enhance working pressure capacity and mechanical durability.
End Fittings – Steam Unions
Both ends fitted with male/female steam union couplings (usually in BSPT or BSPP thread) for quick connection.
Designed with sealing faces and locking collars for secure, pressure-tight joints.
Size Range: 1/2" to 4" (DN15 – DN100)
Working Pressure: Commonly up to 18–20 bar for saturated steam (higher ratings possible on request).
Temperature Range: –40 °C to +230 °C for saturated steam, up to +600 °C for certain superheated applications.
Material Options:
Hose & braid: SS304 / SS316
Steam unions: Carbon steel, brass, or stainless steel (depending on application)
Standards: Can be manufactured to ISO 10380 or BS 6501 for metal hoses; steam unions to BS 336 or equivalent.
Steam Transfer Lines – industrial processing plants, food & beverage, chemical manufacturing.
Autoclaves & Sterilizers – in pharmaceutical and medical equipment.
Heating Systems – textile mills, paper mills, and rubber processing.
Marine & Offshore – steam tracing, heating coils.
Factory Maintenance – portable steam cleaning and heating systems.
High Safety – secure steam unions minimize leak risk at high temperatures.
Easy Installation – no twisting of the hose during coupling.
Durability – resistant to heat, pressure, abrasion, and vibration.
Flexibility – absorbs movement and misalignment between connections.
