The right hose for every application

As a specialist in fluid and hose technology, RCT Reichelt Chemietechnik offers a wide range of different hoses, hose connectors and other plastic products which are required in the chemical industry and in research institutions. Whether they're elastomer hoses or plastic hoses, you'll find what you're looking for in our range: Take advantage of our large selection of different hose materials and variations.

What are protective hoses and insulating hoses needed for?

If sensitive or heavily stressed lines, hoses and cables are not adequately protected from external influences which can cause damage, this can have far-reaching consequences. For example, leaks in chemical hoses can lead to chemical burns and insufficiently insulated cables can cause electric shocks or short circuits.

External influences which can damage your lines:

  • Mechanical stresses (e.g. shocks, impacts or abrasion)
  • Extreme temperatures
  • Moisture
  • Pollution
  • Corrosion
  • Aggressive media in the line environment

Different protective hoses for different applications

In our assortment you'll find a large selection of protective and insulating hoses of various materials and designs:

  • Shrink hoses
  • Heat-insulating hoses
  • Electrical insulating hoses
  • Cable protection hoses
  • Protective hoses against mechanical stresses

Shrink hoses

Shrink hoses are used to protect cables, sensitive components and delicate lines from contamination, kinking, moisture and corrosion. Developed by the Californian Raychem Corporation back in 1962, shrink hoses have been used as a protective and insulating sheath for cables of all kinds for over 50 years. The operation is very simple: the special hose, which is usually based on polyolefins or fluorinated plastics, is pulled over the section to be protected and heated in a hot air stream. As a result of the action of heat, the shrink hose then contracts to form a tight-fitting, solid shell.

Heat-insulating hoses

Foam hoses are intended to minimise the heat transfer between the line and the environment and contribute to a reduction of energy losses. In this way, the emission of line heat to the environment can be reduced or, vice versa, the heating of cooled conduits by the environment can be reduced. Complete thermal insulation or cold insulation is not physically possible, but with thermal insulation hoses from our range you can achieve very good thermal insulation.

Good thermal insulation of pipe and hose lines is indispensable for some applications in the laboratory and technical centre. This applies, for example, to the lines of circulating thermostats or cryostats for the temperature control of plants or experimental setups. In practice, this is achieved with the help of pipe insulations, which sheathe the media lines to be insulated. Foamed plastics, such as silicone rubber (VMQ) or polyurethane (PUR), are particularly suitable as materials for heat-insulating hoses.

Electrical insulating hoses

Electrical insulating hoses made of elastomers and plastics are indispensable work equipment for the protection of live cables against contact or short circuits. They are used in the automotive industry, in electrical engineering and in mechanical engineering and are used not only for line protection, but also as occupational safety for personnel and users. The material of the protective hose should be selected according to the environmental conditions and stress.

Cable protection hoses

Corrugated pipes and corrugated pipe hoses act as cable protection hoses for electrical cables which need to be protected from aggressive liquids and gases. They also prevent weather phenomena and protect against moisture, UV radiation and corrosion.

In addition to corrugated tubular hoses, you'll also find special fabric protective hoses and spiral sheaths in our range, which are used for bundling cable harnesses or smaller hose lines.

Protective hoses against mechanical stresses

Often, sensitive hose lines, pipes and other cylindrical components have to be protected against mechanical stresses, such as shocks, impacts and abrasion. In addition to the aforementioned cable protection hoses, thick-walled elastomer hoses and fabric hoses are also suitable for this. Due to their flexibility, elasticity and good abrasion resistance, they serve as ideal protection against mechanical stress.
