EFFICIENCY. ENGINEERED. MORE THAN JUST NAMES Most industrial hose naming systems spawn confusion, so relating them to products and applications becomes a difficult, time consuming chore. Plus, the risk of choosing the wrong hose for the job may compromise safety, performance, and the customer’s trust. We’ve made our industrial hose naming system more efficient and user-friendly. This change uses descriptive and intuitive names. The easy-to-understand classification: ■ Makes it easy to find the right hose for the application ■ Reduces the learning curve for new employees ■ Helps you better organize your hose inventory ■ Helps eliminate downtime HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS The names are linked to an industry or application (ag, chem, mining, etc.), so you can tell instantly where the hose is meant to be used. We’ve also standardizing the way we describe our hoses: Standard, Plus and XTreme™ . These three levels represent increasing degrees of performance, such as resistance to oil, abrasion or chemicals.
