Industrial Hose 2014 Crimped Steam Hose Program

A leaky steam hose can “hiss away” 2.6 lbs. of steam per minute... annually, that can really add up! That’s why Continental ContiTech has developed a Crimped Steam Hose Program. The program combines our premium steam hose with couplings specifically designed for steam assemblies that reduce leaks, reduce electrostatic discharges and cut costs.

A single leaky coupling

Steam Loss	Cost	Day	Week	Month	Steam Season
2.6 lbs./min	$11/1,000 lbs. steam	$41	$287	$1,250	$6,200

Premium Steam Hose and Fittings

Our steam hose is the premium hose choice for multiple steam applications, such as cleaning, heat control, fire prevention, pumping, thawing, blow-out service, steam pumps and hoists in open-end or permanent installation operations.

Even the best-designed steam hose is only as good as its coupling

Clamps that need periodic re-tightening may still cause costly leaks and potential hazards, but with our crimped steam hose program, you no longer spend maintenance time tightening bolts. You get a tight crimp that reduces leaks.

Coupling is crimped permanently onto hose; this eliminates bulky bolt clamps and reduces potential for injury or damage from clamps snagging on personnel or property
Ferrule “bites” into reinforcement wire in hose achieving electrical continuity to reduce the occurrence of static discharges and shocks
Crimp coupling is a permanent attachment, which reduces potential for leaks and blow-outs
