Rubber tubing is a versatile tubular product primarily crafted from the highest quality rubber. It typically comprises an inner and outer rubber layer, with a robust skeleton layer in between. This advanced construction allows it to efficiently transport gases, liquids, slurries, or granular materials with ease. The core function of rubber tubing is to seamlessly facilitate the transmission of varied media, leveraging its elastic sealing and exceptional pressure-bearing capabilities. This makes it an indispensable asset across diverse fields such as industry, automotive, and medical treatment, where reliable media transmission is crucial.
1. Introduction to the Premium Rubber Pipe Material
Crude Rubber: Known for its impressive high elasticity, along with wear resistance, bending, and scratching characteristics, making it the ideal choice for low-pressure environments.
Protobutadiene Rubber (SBR): Offers exceptional wear resistance at a low cost, though its oil resistance is limited.
Cis-Polybutadiene (BR): Provides excellent moisture resistance with outstanding low-temperature performance, remaining elastic even at -50ºC.
Nitrile Rubber (NBR): Boasts excellent oil resistance, suitable against mineral and lubricating oils, though it is less resistant to ozone and high temperatures.
Chloroprene Rubber (CR): Offers balanced performance with oil resistance, ozone resistance, and aging resistance, making it a comprehensive solution.
EPDM Rubber (EPDM): Withstands high temperatures ranging from -50 to 150ºC, and showcases remarkable weather resistance, ideal for prolonged outdoor exposure.
Fluorine Rubber (FKM): Exhibits high temperature endurance from -20 to 250ºC and resists chemical corrosion, perfect for extreme environments.
Silastic (VMQ): Endures high temperatures from -70 to 300ºC, offers high transparency, and excellent electrical performance, ideal for demanding conditions.
Chlorinated Sulfated Polyethylene Rubber (CSM): Resists strong acids and alkalis, such as concentrated sulfuric and nitric acids, with outstanding permeability resistance.
Conductive Rubber: Integrates conductive fibers or metal mesh to effectively prevent static accumulation.
Fire Retardant Rubber: Enhanced with flame retardants like aluminum hydroxide, this material passes the stringent UL 94 flame retardant certification.
2. Structural Composition of the Robust Rubber Pipe
The Glue Layer: This essential layer is in direct contact with the conveying medium, offering superb wear resistance, corrosion resistance (including oil, acid, and alkali resistance).
| casing pyl |
Enhance the strength of the tube body, including cotton thread, steel wire, synthetic fiber, etc., to determine the pressure bearing capacity (e. g., the steel wire woven layer can withstand 80~600MPa pressure). |
| External glue layer |
Protect the internal structure from the external environment (such as ultraviolet light, mechanical friction). |
3. Structurally, rubber pipes are innovatively categorized into various types, including sandwich hoses, braided hoses, winding hoses, and full hoses.
4. Working Principle of the Dynamic Rubber Pipe
| Pressure transmission and energy buffer |
The hydraulic hose transfers the force through the fluid pressure, and uses the elastic shape of the rubber to absorb the pressure pulsation, and reduce the vibration of the system. For example, the hydraulic pipe of construction machinery bears high pressure (up to 60MPa or above) through a multi-layer steel wire reinforced layer. |
| Shock absorption and displacement compensation |
Rubber soft connection (e. g., flexible rubber joint) absorbs pipe displacement through the elastic deformation of the curtain layer and wire ring to reduce operating noise, which is suitable for pump valve connection and frequent vibration line. |
| Media isolation and leakage prevention |
The compactness of the inner adhesive layer combines with the protection of the outer adhesive layer to prevent the leakage of water, gas or chemicals. For example, the mobility of the coolant between the car radiator and the engine. |
