    Umbillical hose

    On the first question, I can't see why not as most hoses are dimensionally quite similar [although I spotted one at LAMMA last week that was a bit bizarre]. I can always send a sample to offer up. The second question I cannot answer not being a contractor. Perhaps someone else in here has a...

    Umbillical hose

    Somehow I just thought that might happen! Ten out of ten for effort though.

    Umbillical hose

    As the above correspondent said, Bauer do stamp the lever ring handle and yes, when closed the lever sits almost in line with the hose. This does help stop the handle from being snagged, although not infallible! We have seen 'non-Bauer' male and female tails being used with a genuine Bauer...

    Warranty is, and always has been, a mysterious subject. What's included and what's not etc. For our part, we guarantee Oroflex hoses free from manufacturing defect for life. Our reasoning is fairly simple, a stockist may have the hose on his shelf for a year or two before he sells it. So when...

    Umbillical hose

    Good morning, Yes, we basically started from scratch on this. Our target was simple enough, 17 bar working pressure [50 bar jacket], as flexible as we could make it and also to sit as 'flat' as we could on reelers. The higher pressure rating is down to the Doda HD35 knocking out higher...

    Umbillical hose

    Hello All I'm Mick from Designation Ltd who are the official UK and Ireland agents for Oroflex hose. It's quite interesting for me to hear all these comments as I normally only get to hear things from our agents. Hands up! The green Oroflex 30 was not our best work, we replaced all that we...
