Leak prevention of steel wire braided rubber hose joints
Time:2023-11-15Page views:778Steel wire braided rubber hoses are commonly used in daily life. If the operating procedures are not reasonable, it can cause damage to the rubber hose system. Rubber hoses in hydraulic systems, whether they are metal pipe joints or rubber hose joints, are prone to leakage. Let's talk about the following points to pay attention to in preventing joint leakage:
1. When moving or stopping, do not excessively bend or bend at the base, bend at least 1.5 times its diameter. When the bending radius of the hose is too small, a corner joint is generally used.
2. When moving to the extreme position, it is not advisable to pull too tightly, and it should be relatively loose;
3. To prevent damage to the high-pressure wires around the rubber hose and limit the flow rate, the bending radius should be increased as much as possible to prevent the modification and deformation of the steel wire braided rubber hose;
4. Try to stay away from heat dissipation components as much as possible and install insulation boards; If the hydraulic system temperature is found to be too high during operation, the pipeline should be checked immediately, and important cooling methods should be taken during continuous operation.
5. Rubber hoses should be protected from external hazards, such as long-term conflicts with component surfaces during use;
6. If the self weight causes excessive deformation, there should be support.
For steel wire braided rubber hose sleeve type pipe joints, most leaks occur due to the pipeline being subjected to significant external or impact forces, causing the sleeve to loosen or the pipeline end face to deform. At this point, it is necessary to check whether the plug is not round, whether the cutting edge is damaged, whether the pipe end is intact, and the degree of compression of the sleeve nut, while also eliminating external forces on the pipeline. For expansion pipe joints, in most cases, it is due to excessive expansion, poor quality, or repeated disassembly and assembly, resulting in expansion deformation or leakage such as cracks. At this point, you can cut off the front-end and unfold it again. If a male and female cone top pressure seal is used, the leakage is mostly caused by damage to the two cone surfaces. The cone surfaces can be polished with grinding sand. In some cases, an "о" ring is used to seal the end face or outer diameter.
