Flame retardant hoses for the wood industry

One of the first and also one of the most successful innovations in the history of Masterflex AG is the first flame-retardant suction hose made of PUR (polyurethane), which has official approval and quality monitoring.

 

Gelsenkirchen, May 14, 2007

A good idea never comes by itself, it always arises only where one was and is in search of better solutions. This is just one reason why ourFlamex B extraction hoses were the first to fully meet the requirements of DIN 4102 B1. Today, we have developed further innovations from this, which are both extremely flexible and resistant to deformation.

The hoses are used specifically for woodworking machines, extraction systems and equipment in the woodworking industry and meet all the requirements of the Holz-Berufsgenossenschaft. The development of these innovative hoses has led to the fact that flame retardant hoses are now mandatory.

We now offer many different types of flame-retardant hoses:

  • Flamex B-F se
    • flame retardant according to DIN 4102 B1
    • PU film hose with a wall thickness of approx. 0.5 mm
    • extremely flexible and super light
  • Flamex B se
    • flame retardant according to DIN 4102 B 1
    • extremely abrasion resistant and permanently kink resistant
    • lightweight design with a wall thickness of approx. 0.7 mm
    • smallest bending radii
  • Flamex B-H se
    • flame retardant according to DIN 4102 B 1
    • extremely abrasion resistant and permanently kink resistant
    • medium-weight design with a wall thickness of approx. 1.4 mm
    • small bending radii
  • MASTER-PUR STEP
    • flame retardant according to DIN 4102 B1
    • step-resistant and can be driven over without damage to the cross-section
    • extremely flexible and light
    • inserted stranded wire enables dissipation of electrostatic charges

Particularly in work areas where extraction hoses are laid in the floor area, e.g. on mobile dust extractors, there is a risk of hoses with wire spirals being deformed by falling objects or carelessness. This results in a reduction of the extraction performance or even in the hoses becoming blocked.

MASTER-PUR STEP hoses always straighten up circularly, even running over them with a forklift cannot cause permanent damage to the hoses.

For 20 years now, Masterflex AG has been successfully offering suction, conveying and blower hoses worldwide for many industrial sectors, including the woodworking industry. Since then, numerous innovative new developments have led to a good development of the company. Today, Masterflex is one of the leading hose manufacturers worldwide.

Through constant dialog with customers, the company has now developed extensive problem-solving expertise. Many of the new and further developments could only come about in this way.
