Product Description
Steel Braided Flexible Hose 21 cm 1/2" F/M
Flexible Anti-Vibration Connection for Professional Hydraulic Configurations
This compact, flexible hose features a robust stainless steel outer braid, measuring 21 cm in length with universal 1/2-inch connections. The hose is configured with a Female (F) swivel nut on one end and a rigid Male (M) thread on the other. It perfectly combines excellent structural flexibility with high mechanical resistance. This component is essential in car wash technical rooms, industrial automation, and low-to-medium pressure fluid lines where installation space is highly restricted, and where rigid piping configurations would be susceptible to cracking due to constant operational vibrations or mechanical stress.
Key Technical Features and Product Advantages:
- Stainless Steel Braiding: The tightly woven stainless steel mesh effectively shields the inner core from external mechanical impacts, sharp kinks, abrasions, and expansion caused by system working pressures.
- Versatile F/M 1/2" Configuration: The practical male-to-female threading allows for direct inline connection between system components (such as manifolds, valves, or filters) without requiring extra hex nipples or reducing fittings.
- Excellent Vibration Dampening: The elastic inner core acts as a vibration isolator, absorbing hydraulic pulsations generated by dosing or low-pressure feed pumps. This protects sensitive control equipment, such as pressure transmitters, switches, and analog gauges, from premature wear.
- Compact 21 cm Length: Specially optimized for short bypass loops, hydraulic bridges, and clean, tension-free routing inside tight control cabinets or wash bay dashboards.
- Ready-to-Install Sealing: The female swivel nut side comes equipped with a factory-fitted flat sealing washer, ensuring an immediate leak-proof seal without the need for additional PTFE tape on that joint.
Primary Applications in Car Wash and Fluid Technology:
- Water supply inlet connections for chemical dosing blocks in car wash pump rooms.
- Flexible coupling for monitoring instruments, pressure switches, and analog pressure gauges.
- Water softening installations, reverse osmosis (RO) low-pressure feed lines, and bypass circulation loops.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is this braided hose suitable for high-pressure systems (e.g., downstream of the main high-pressure pump)?
No. Steel braided hoses of this design are strictly engineered for low-to-medium pressure installations (typically up to 10–16 bar), such as water mains, feeding loops, reverse osmosis intake lines, or low-pressure chemical delivery. They must not be used on the high-pressure lines (90–150 bar) downstream of plunger pumps.
Does the male (M) thread end require additional sealant during installation?
Yes. The male thread does not feature an integrated gasket or flat seal face. When screwing it into a technical port, you must apply standard sealing materials such as PTFE thread tape, sealing cord, or a suitable anaerobic thread sealant. The female swivel nut side already contains an internal flat washer and requires no extra sealant.
Is this hose resistant to the harsh chemicals used in commercial car washes?
The stainless steel outer braid offers superior resistance to ambient humidity and chemical vapors inside technical rooms. It is ideal for pure water, softened water, and reverse osmosis applications. However, if you are directly transferring highly concentrated raw acids or alkaline chemicals (undiluted concentrates), we recommend using dedicated polymer lines (such as PVDF or PE) instead.
