How To Order Industrial Hose

TASco recommends using the “STAMPED” Method To Order, Specify Or Request A Quote :

S or Size - the inside diameter (or ID) is essential as this determines the volume of material that can be transported through the hose. If the outside diameter (or OD) is critical for space restrictions, this should also be specified.

T or Temperature - What is the maximum and minimum possible temperatures of the material going through the hose? Is the hose being used in hot or cold atmospheres?

A or Application – Where is the hose being used. Is it in a caustic environment?

M or Material - You need to identify the material being moved through the hose. This material is in contact with the inner tube of the hose and the fittings. Are they chemically reactive or compatible? We can help you determine this.

P or Pressure - What is the normal working pressure at which this hose is operating? Does the pressure ever “spike”?

E or Ends - When specifying a hose, it is important to determine what ends will be attached. Do you need adapters or Quick Disconnects?

D or Delivery - Due to the myriad of hose products and ends that can be configured, it is always helpful to know when you will need your hose assembly.
