enhances the appearance
of fnished assemblies.
Traditional composite hose
couplings require epoxy for
secure attachment to the hose.
Te epoxy also requires hours
of curing/drying/setting time,
and frequently deposits hardened
epoxy residue on the hose cover.
Te exclusive Parker dry seal
technology—available in 1"
through 4" hose sizes—replaces
epoxy with a rubber sleeve that
neatly and securely fts around
the hose wall and between the
coupling stem and ferrule prior
to crimping. Consequently,
Parker composite hose has been
completely redesigned and is now
manufactured in a state-of-the-art
production environment. Te new
manufacturing process precisely
controls coverage and orientation
of the premium-quality fabric and
flm, as well as the gauge, pitch
and tension of the inner and outer
helical wires. Parker’s design and
materials create consistent, high-
performance, long-lasting composite
hose in an automated production
environment. All Parker composite
hose is manufactured in the U.S.A.—
eliminating long lead times due to
transoceanic deliveries for standard
or customized products.
Parker has also invested in a new
dry seal coupling technology, a
transformational process that reduces
composite hose assembly fabrication
time, minimizes downtime and
Parker composite hose
dry seal assemblies are ready for
use in the application in a fraction
of the time.
Outdated designs, outmoded
materials, hand-built manufacturing
technology and labor-intensive hose
assembly fabrication processes are
prevalent in the composite hose
market. Parker now ofers a modern
composite hose assembly system to
drive performance and productivity
in the twenty-frst century.
