The Continental division of ContiTech, Fairlawn, Ohio, has introduced a new heavy-duty air hose for the construction and mining markets. Named Super Rock Drill 600 HT, the air hose is specifically designed for applications that require a high working pressure hose in a high temperature environment.
“This is a hand-built hose that is exceptionally applicable to customers and markets that operate in hazardous environs,” said Laszlo Dobo, product manager for Continental’s industry hoses. “The material in the heavy-duty air hose provides an ideal solution on construction sites, mines and quarries.”
The hose offers a 600-psi working pressure and complies with ARPM (Association for Rubber Products Manufacturers) guidelines on a 4:1 safety factory. The EPDM rubber provides good ozone resistance in outside applications.
The Super Rock Drill 600 HT includes a heat-resistant CPE tube, rated ARPM class B, which offers medium oil resistance at operating temperatures to 275°F (135°C). The black industry hose has spiral-plied wires to withstand high working pressure at high temperatures, and it will be supplied with an industry standard yellow EPDM cover to resist ozone.
Like all Continental hoses, Super Rock Drill 600 HT is available for customers and dealers through a variety of North American distribution channels.
