subject: Standard Quality Marine Tubing Indispensable For The Boats [print this page] Water, water everywhere, not a drop to drink. Well, in this case, when the poet, was on the boat, amidst the vast expanse of sea, he faced the only problem of finding drinking water. But trust me, a lot more problems can arise if you do not take care of certain technical aspects of the boat.
One such aspect is marine tubing. Marine tubing is like the life line of the boat. It refers to the network of marine hoses within a boat, for proper circulation and disposal of fluids and gases. It is the only medium through which all other critical equipments like wires and cables are connected, serviced and protected. The conveying of the boats all kinds of fluids, vapors and gases takes place only through marine tubing. Essentially, the only part which has a more encompassing effect on the boat than the operation and safety of marine tubing is the integrity of the boats hull. However, if one thinks about it, marine tubing often connects the holes in the hull, and acts as an extension of the hull into the boat. Hence, the integrity of the marine hoses is almost as important as the hull.
Not having sound marine tubing with standard quality marine hoses can have serious repercussions on your boat like explosion, fire, flooding, sinking or affixation. For example, if the internal side of marine fuel hose or water hose has low quality reinforcements, de-lamination takes place and there could be an engine failure. The worst part is that it is really hard to locate the root cause of the problem on time if it is related to the marine hoses.
There are certain features that must be encompassed by marine hoses so that they can serve all the purposes of tubing within the boat efficiently. There are certain must haves for the marine hoses. They are:
Two or three layers of reinforcements
Quality to be approved by FDA
High level of abrasion resistance
Long lasting flexibility
High level of transparency
Wide range of operating temperatures
Quality to work with same efficiency for both hot and cold pressurized fluid applications
High level of kink resistance, and,
High quality PVC compound as their constituent material
If you are wondering where in this world you can find marine hoses with all these qualities, the answer is terraflexhoses. In their marine hoses, you can find not only all the qualities but different varieties as well. They are:
Clear reinforced
White reinforced
Wash down hoses, and,
Conduit hoses
Apart from marine hoses, you can place order for other PVC hoses like technical hoses also.
