- Chemical Resistance: Excellent resistance to acids, bases, and solvents.
- Cost-Effective: Affordable solution for various applications.
- Flexibility: Good flexibility for various installation configurations.
- Durability: Long-lasting with resistance to environmental stress cracking.
Functions
- Fluid Transfer: Efficiently transports liquids and gases.
- Insulation: Provides good insulation properties for electrical and thermal applications.
- Chemical Handling: Suitable for conveying chemicals due to its resistance.
How does PE Tube/Hose work?
PE tubes and hoses function by providing a lightweight and chemically resistant conduit for transporting fluids or protecting electrical wires. Their flexibility and durability allow for easy installation and adaptability to various applications, maintaining performance even in harsh environments.
Why need PE Tube/Hose?
PE tubes and hoses are essential for applications requiring chemical resistance, lightweight properties, and cost-effectiveness. They offer a reliable and affordable solution for fluid transfer and protective applications, especially in environments where chemical exposure is a concern.
Differences Between PE Hose and PE Tube
- PE Tube: Typically refers to smaller diameter products used for precision applications and fluid transport in lighter-duty settings.
- PE Hose: Generally used for larger diameter applications, often in more demanding or heavy-duty environments, capable of handling higher pressures.
How to Choose Suitable PE Tube/Hose
1. Determine Application: Identify the specific use case, such as fluid transport, insulation, or chemical handling.
2. Assess Environmental Conditions: Consider factors like temperature, chemical exposure, and mechanical stress.
3. Size and Diameter: Choose the appropriate size based on the required flow rate and pressure.
Differences Between PE Tube, PU Tube, and Nylon Tube
- PE (Polyethylene) Tube: Lightweight, cost-effective, excellent chemical resistance, but less durable than PU and Nylon.
- PU (Polyurethane) Tube: Highly flexible, excellent abrasion resistance, good chemical resistance.
- Nylon Tube: High strength, excellent chemical resistance, superior durability.
Applications for PE Tube and PE Hose
- Agriculture: Irrigation systems and chemical distribution.
- Medical Devices: Fluid and gas transfer in non-critical applications.
- Industrial Equipment: Chemical handling and fluid transport.
- Construction: Protective coverings and insulation for electrical wiring.
- Food and Beverage: Safe for use in food processing equipment for liquid transfer.
