The Metal Hose is a flexible, braided stainless steel hose designed for conveying steam or hot water in high-pressure and high-temperature industrial laundry systems. This specific hose, with 1/4" connections and a 15-inch length, provides a durable, kink-resistant, and reliable alternative to rubber hoses, offering superior safety and longevity for critical steam line connections.
• High-Temperature & Pressure Rated: Constructed from braided stainless steel, it can safely handle the high temperatures and pressures of saturated steam systems far beyond the limits of standard rubber hoses.
• Flexible Yet Robust: Offers excellent flexibility for easy installation and routing while being highly resistant to kinking, crushing, and abrasion.
• Superior Durability: The metal construction is immune to aging, ozone, and most chemicals, providing a much longer service life than rubber hoses.
• Secure Threaded Connections: Features 1/4" threaded fittings on both ends (likely male or female) for a secure, leak-proof connection to valves and equipment.
• Standard 15-Inch Length: A convenient pre-cut length for short, direct connections between fixed points like a pressure switch and its gauge, or a valve and an instrument.
• Steam Gauge & Instrument Lines: Connecting pressure switches, pressure gauges, or safety valves to the boiler steam space in Star Fish SSMAX series boilers.
• High-Temperature Steam Lines: As a durable replacement for rubber hoses in any location where heat, pressure, or safety is a primary concern.
• Vibration Dampening: Can be used in locations where pipe vibration is an issue, due to its flexibility.
