Extensible flexible metal hose with a heat treatment

The extensible flexible metal hose is made with closed pitch of the profile. Hoses of this type are subjected to heat treatment – a shiny annealing at a temperature of 1150°C under a nitrogen atmosphere to reduce the residual stresses in manufacturing. They are easily expanded and retain their shape after bending. Most often be used for natural gas with a nominal pressure up to 1 bar. The extending flexible metal hose for natural gas can be made with yellow heat shrinkable cover.
