Principal uses include automotive V-belts, industrial and hydraulic hose, specialty roofing, heels and soles in footwear, wine coveting, and a wide variety of coated fabric uses, eg, rafts. Chloroprene elastomers are also used extensively in adhesives (qv). It is estimated that about 77,000 t of chloroprene are used each year in the United States. The two main suppHers of chloroprene elastomers in the United States are DuPont and Bayer. In addition, Distiguil (France) sells polymers through the A. Schulman Company. 

Epichlorhydrin rubbers, whilst being speciality materials, have a useful combination of properties which leads to their use in many applications such as gaskets, oil-field components, fuel pump diaphragms, oil seals, fuel and hydraulic hose and printing rollers.

The vendor recommended that at least 6100 worth of spare parts be maintained in stock. Some of these items included TPU-116 liner, single pack (burner, air inlet filter assembly, packed-tower filling material, and a hydraulic hose-packed tower water supply). During the 3-month trial, 4510 worth of replacement parts were used. These replacement parts were a...

Any hose used to transfer a liquid, including refrigerants, that has an agency-reportable quantity listed for a spill. It does not include normal utility hoses such as steam, water, nitrogen, and air. It does not include hoses that are supplied by a contract carrier. It does not include hydraulic hoses or other such hoses that are permanently mounted as a part of equipment that has its own inspection schedule. Fire hoses are not included, but do have testing procedures for that particular service. NOTE that good judgment should be exercised with the use of all hoses, and any obvious defects should be addressed. 

The squeezing apparatus described here is the one in use at the British Geological Survey (BGS) and utilizes a hydraulic pump (Wykeham Farrance Engineering Ltd., Slough) which has a maximum output stress of 70 MPa and hydraulic hoses and fittings (Fig. 10.9). The main body of the cell and other metal parts in contact with the test sample or pore water are manufactured from Type 316 stainless steel, selected for its resistance to corrosion and its high tensile strength. 

Du Font s Hytrel copolyester thermoplastic elastomers are slightly higher in price than the polyurethane types and have grown rapidly. They have a wide range of service temperatures and have found major uses in recreational vehicles, belting, hydraulic hose, and mechanical goods. 

Nitrile rubber (NBR) is a copolymer of acrylonitrile and butadiene. Its most important property is resistance to oil absorption it therefore finds extensive use in such products as hydraulic hose and automotive engine components, where oil resistance is essential. Figure 9.4 illustrates the effect of acrylonitrile level on oil absorption (IRM 903 oil). Conversely, NBR polymers have poor cold flex properties, which prohibits their use on equipment operating in cold climates. 

Mechanical rubber goods include hoses, power transmission (PT) belts, and conveyor belts. Aramids compete with nylon, polyester, glass, and steel in these applications. Steel dominates the rubber hydraulic hose market and polyester is the reinforcement of choice in lower pressure thermoplastic hoses. Advantages of aramid vs. other textiles in hose applications include higher strength, which can lead to constructions with fewer plies and less weight, and better thermal stability, dimensional stability, and chemical resistance. When compared with steel, aramid will not corrode and can be fabricated into lower weight, more flexible hoses.

Tires are one of the most durable technological products manufactured today. They are a resilient, durable composite of fabric, steel, carbon black, natural rubber, and synthetic polymers. TTie qualities that make tires or other engineered rubber products a high-value item create a special challenge of disposal. Tires and other rubber products, such as conveyor belts and hydraulic hoses, are not biodegradable and cannot be recycled like glass, aluminum, or plastic. Four potential applications for such products entering the solid waste stream have been identified ... 

Applications and uses automotive fuel lines, fluid transfer lines (brake, clutch, cooling), quick connectors, fittings, fasteners and clips, friction parts, pneumatic hoses, air lines, hydraulic hoses, oil and gas umbilical hoses, racket eyelets and bumpers, badminton shuttlecocks, ski top layers, shoes soles, and mechanical parts (footwear, rackets, ski industry). 

Uses and applications automotive fuel and powertrain systems, fuel lines, hydraulic hoses, transmission oil cooler hoses, servo brakes vacuum tubes, clutch tubes, and filaments. 

A hydraulic hose connector mptured and sprayed hydraulic fluid onto the exhaust channel. The fluid caught fire. The hydraulic fluid leak continued to feed the fire. The pump for the hydraulic system continued to push fluid through the leak. The fire quickly surrounded much of the cab and continued to grow with the release of more hydraulic fluid. The operator stopped the haul tmck, quickly exited the cab and jumped to the ground from the landing. He sustained broken ankles and crawled away from the haul truck.
