Customised special hoses

We can customise (almost) any standard hose according to the specific requirements, the special installation situation or individual wishes. Find out more about our customised hoses.

Our special hoses

Our range of standard hoses is just an excerpt of our possibilities.

In addition to standardised hose types, we also create individually adapted ("customised") special hoses - as well as completely new development solutions together with you. We are constantly working on new processes and solutions to ensure that these have the right properties depending on the area of application or requirement.

We can customise (almost) any hose - and adapt technical features such as diameter, vacuum, bending radius, wall thickness, length, imprint or colour to suit requirements.

And that's not all: we combine our hoses with valuable, sometimes innovative connectors to create perfect hose systems and connection solutions. Depending on your needs and requirements, we can customise your hoses with the desired connections.

An overview of the customisation options

Whether logo, company or brand name - we can customise (almost) any hose. The print image can vary from scaling (with and without numbers), company logos, labelling of the respective production batch numbers to individual print texts.

With our spiral hoses, you have the choice between a spiral made of spring steel wire, stainless steel wire, rigid PVC or a plastic-coated spiral. The plastic coating protects the spiral from external mechanical influences. The spiral spacing/pitch itself can also be customised.

Sudden discharges (sparks) can be unpleasant and sometimes even dangerous. To ensure discharge, a hose line must be earthed. Testing for electrical conductivity is particularly necessary when used in EX areas (potentially explosive atmospheres). TRGS 727 must be observed here. With a stranded wire, a continuous earthing can be established with an appropriate connection and the hoses are considered conductive. This can greatly reduce the risk of possible electrostatic charges.

From black to transparent, everything is possible: our hoses are available in RAL colours, so that different fluids can be labelled or coded, for example.

In addition to the standard lengths, all our hoses are also available in extra lengths.

We process technically sophisticated plastics and fabrics into innovative products. We can draw on many years of experience in the field of polymers, materials, fabrics and films and their processing. By processing modern materials, we realise solutions that can only be realised inadequately, with great effort or not at all with conventional materials.

 

For hoses, the inside diameter is usually specified. It is correct to specify the nominal diameter in accordance with EN ISO 6708 using the designation "DN", followed by a number (approximately) corresponding to the inside diameter in millimetres. In addition to the inside diameter, the outside diameter (OD = Outside Diameter), the wall thickness and the length can also be specified for each hose.

We can customise the diameter of our hoses by using a wide variety of mandrels.

Depending on the fire protection requirements, the use of flame-retardant materials may be necessary.

There is a whole range of regulations and standards relating to fire protection and fire behaviour. For most applications in Germany, DIN 4102 (fire behaviour of building materials and components) provides information on preventive structural fire protection and has been introduced as a technical building regulation in all federal states.

How flexible a hose is depends on its wall thickness and the spiral distance. We can vary the wall thicknesses of our hoses and customise them to the respective installation situation.

Customised special hose designs

It goes without saying that we offer customised hose designs specifically tailored to your applications

The expert Masterflex development team will be happy to advise you on customised hose and connection solutions tailored to your requirements. Our safety and quality requirements and our experienced employees enable you to find exactly what you are looking for.

Hose systems from the Masterflex Group

Our high level of expertise and group-wide expertise will certainly find suitable solutions for you for hose systems to which different connections and connecting elements can be attached. We understand the term "hose system" to mean the joining of one or more connector components to an existing hose.

Also interesting: Our digital hose systems

The Masterflex Group has developed hose systems under the name AMPIUS®. With the AMPIUS® hose systems with integrated life cycle tracking functions, the matching AMPIUS® app has already gone online. The first GO-Live MVP for the digital hose management system is currently about to be released.

Connection technology

If required, we can customise your hoses with the desired connections.

The connection points of hoses to an existing system are one of the special challenges in the field of connection technology. These connection points must hold perfectly, especially in the case of extreme requirements. This is why we also offer suitable connections for all our hoses and connection solutions, whether they are connectors made of metal or plastic or production processes such as coating, in which we mould plastics into specially designed moulds to produce special connection parts or to attach sleeves.
