Custom Flexible Metal Hose Assemblies FAQs
How is overall length measured?
Measure the complete assembly end to end. Include a drawing when the end points or fitting geometry could be interpreted more than one way.
Can each end use a different connection?
A custom request can identify a different fitting for side one and side two. Availability must be confirmed for the requested combination.
What operating details should I provide?
Include media, operating pressure, operating temperature, expected movement or vibration, nominal size, quantity, and the system application.
Can I send a photo or drawing?
Yes. A clear drawing or photo can help identify replacement dimensions and end connections.
