Stainless Steel Wire Braided Flexible Metal Hose Union Type Flexible Braided Hose
Union Type Flexible Braided Hose is a flexible hose assembly designed with union end connections that allow easy installation, removal, and maintenance without twisting the hose. It consists of an inner flexible tube reinforced with an external braided layer, typically made of stainless steel, to provide strength, pressure resistance, and durability. This type of hose is commonly used in piping systems to accommodate vibration, thermal expansion, and minor misalignment while ensuring a secure and leak-tight connection.
Performance Characteristics
The main elastic element of flexible expansion joint is stainless steel bellows. Through the expansion and bending of bellows, the flexible expansion joint accommodates pipeline movement in axial, transverse and angular directions. Flexible expansion joint can play the following roles:
- Absorbs the axial, transverse and angular thermal deformation of the pipeline
- Can absorb equipment vibration and reduce the influence of equipment vibration on pipeline
- Can absorb the pipeline deformation caused by earthquake and land subsidence

Applications
Due to their flexibility, pipe flex connectors can compensate for temperature differential deformation and other movements between equipment and pipelines, prevent vibration, reduce pipeline thrust on equipment, and accommodate uneven tank foundation settlement. Flexible expansion joints are widely used in chemical, oil refining, power generation, light industry, nuclear energy, metallurgy, machinery, instrumentation, shipbuilding, aerospace, and other industrial sectors. With the increasing application of power and heat pipelines in industrial and civil fields, the demand for pipe flex connectors continues to grow.
