Rubber Hose
Rubber Hose
(OP)
Does anyone have any experience with the use of Rubber Hose in refined product service (i.e. gasoline, jet fuel, etc.). Intuitively it seems like a bad idea to me, but I was curious to see what others have to say.
Thanks!
Thanks!

RE: Rubber Hose
We use hose for wear resistance in addition to flexibility. Inspecting hose for wear is difficult, hard to measure with calipers the remaining wall. Most companies will now provide you with a wire buried spirally a certain depth into the rubber. Two ends of the wire stick out, and you can test the continuity. if there is no continuity, then you have worn out through the wire. You can also get colored layers that will indicate how far you have worn.
