Metal hose

Metal hose is a flexible metallic conduit for connection or controlled movement, but the name does not establish corrugation, braid, alloy, end fitting, or assembly method. Pressure, temperature, bend radius, motion, fatigue, vibration, and medium compatibility require review for the actual hose and end fittings.

Application and duty

Flexible process connection using verified hose and end fittings
