Norres Schlauchtechnik, the specialist industrial hose manufacturer based in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, in late December announced that its NORPLAST® PUR 385 SE AS suction and transport hose is now additionally flame retardant in accordance with DIN 4102-B1. The product also displays high abrasion-resistant properties, its walls exhibiting up to five times better wear resistance than the majority of rubber materials as well as being three to four times more abrasion resistant than most soft PVC. Its permanently anti-static walls with a surface resistance < 109 Ω makes it especially suitable for transferring abrasive solids such as dusts, powder, fibre, chips and granulate. Tests have shown impressive results in applications such as dedusting and suction plants, industrial vacuum cleaners as well as in negative pressure pneumatic conveying of paper and textile fibres.

Being gas and liquid-tight, the hose can also be used for handling gaseous media and good UV and ozone resistance ensure an extended service life for outdoor use. www.norres.com
