Can the Steel Braided Thermoplastic Hose for CO₂ 050 maintain flexibility and integrity at temperatures from -60°C to +93°C in marine fire protection systems?

Yes. The Steel Braided Thermoplastic Hose for CO₂ 050 is specifically engineered for CO₂ installations in demanding industrial and marine fire protection systems and is rated to maintain its flexibility, integrity and durability across the specified temperature range of −60°C to +93°C. Its inner polyester layer provides low-temperature stability and resistance, the steel braid reinforcement ensures mechanical strength under pressure, and the microperforated polyurethane outer layer protects against wear and environmental exposure—together ensuring reliable performance in extreme marine conditions.

Is the Steel Braided Thermoplastic Hose for CO₂ 050 suitable for continuous use in salty marine environments without corrosion or performance loss?

The Steel Braided Thermoplastic Hose for CO₂ 050 is specifically built for demanding industrial and marine fire protection systems and offers features that greatly reduce the risk of corrosion and performance loss in salty marine environments. Its steel braid reinforcement provides strength under pressure, while the outer microperforated polyurethane layer gives excellent protection against wear, abrasion and environmental factors. The polyester inner layer resists chemical and physical degradation and the hose is engineered to remain flexible and durable across a wide temperature range (–60°C to +93°C). However, while the construction offers strong resistance to marine conditions, the steel braid can still be susceptible to corrosion over long-term, continuous exposure to saltwater or highly corrosive marine atmospheres unless the braid is made from a corrosion-resistant alloy (e.g., stainless steel) or the hose is additionally treated/coated for marine use. For guaranteed long-term, continuous saltwater immersion or exposure, confirm the braid material and any corrosion-protection treatments with the manufacturer and consider specifying stainless-steel reinforcement or additional protective coatings and regular inspection/maintenance regimes.
