Abrasive Hose Bursts After Only Three Days of Use? Which “Key Factor” Is Missing in Procurement Selection
Most abrasive hose burst failures within a short service life are not caused by wrong conventional parameters, but by the missing of the safety factor in procurement selection. Working pressure and burst pressure jointly determine slurry hose pressure resistance, while the safety factor bridges the two core indicators. A matched safety factor (1.5-4.0 customized) helps avoid potential safety hazards and cost waste, balancing operational safety and procurement economy for dredging, slurry, steel mill and concrete hose systems.
