The Materials of our Pneumatic Hoses for the Automotive Industry

Materials and properties of our automotive hoses at a glance

Our pneumatic hoses are made from high-quality materials such as PUR, PA and PE. Each of these materials offers unique properties that predestine them for different applications in the automotive industry.

By integrating special additives, we can customise the original properties of the raw materials or even add new characteristics.

  • PUR (polyurethane, 98A): Offers excellent low-temperature flexibility, UV resistance and good damping behaviour.
  • PA 12w (polyamide): Impresses with high pressure resistance, impact strength and excellent temperature resistance.
  • PE LD (Low Density Polyethylene): Enables low permeation of water, water vapour and gases, which ensures high efficiency.

Depending on the requirements, we offer customised solutions that are ideally suited to the needs of the automotive industry.

More about quality

Practical Examples: Hose Applications in the Automotive Industry

Example Project in the Automotive Industry: Silicone Turbocharger Hose

Silicone turbocharger hoses are special hoses that are used in vehicle turbocharger systems. They are made of high-quality silicone material that is highly resistant to high temperatures and pressures.

Advantages of silicone turbocharger hoses in the automotive industry

  • Heat resistance: Silicone turbocharger hoses are able to withstand high temperatures that occur in turbocharger systems due to the high air flow and increased pressure.
  • Pressure resistance: Silicone turbocharger hoses are able to withstand high pressures that occur in turbocharger systems due to the increased air flow.
  • Flexibility: Silicone turbocharger hoses are very flexible and can be easily bent and adjusted. This makes it easier to install the hose in the turbocharger system.
  • Durability: Silicone turbocharger hoses are very robust and durable. They are resistant to abrasion, wear and damage.
  • Lightweight: Compared to conventional rubber turbocharger hoses, silicone turbocharger hoses are lighter, which has a positive effect on the overall weight of the vehicle.

Hoses for Control Air Ducting in the Automotive Industry

Compressed air as control air is a permanent fixture in the manufacturing industry and has so far been indispensable. There are numerous pneumatic applications and each one needs to be controlled. When compressed air is used to control cylinders, actuators or valves, it is referred to as control air. Control air is used because it enables high operating speeds to be achieved and precise and exact control. Pneumatic control systems are also insensitive to environmental influences and can be used in potentially explosive atmospheres. Control air is used for simple pneumatic tools and robots with pneumatic components. It is also used in the new generation of robots, the so-called cobots (collaborative robots).

The requirements for the quality of the control air are not as high as for other compressed air applications, as it usually has no direct product contact, but it still needs to be treated. This is because inadequate compressed air quality can accelerate wear. In certain cases, the quality requirements can also be higher - e.g. in clean rooms or if the process requires it. This is why it is important to seek advice and customise the design of the compressed air treatment system.

Media Transport Hoses for the Automotive Industry

Almost all of our media-conducting systems are customised solutions that are individually tailored to the customer's needs and have been specially developed for them. We have specialised in particularly difficult tasks. Where it is too hot or cold, too dangerous, too narrow or too aggressive for others, that's where it gets interesting for us.

Our experience has shown us how to develop products for the automotive sector from individual solutions that can be used in a variety of ways despite their specialisation. From the fuel system to the battery ventilation and the brake vacuum line through to the cooling system: the functionality of entire engines and units depends on the quality, tightness and resistance of the lines and pipes. This is why corrugated and smooth tubes, braided and knitted hoses must meet the highest standards. Depending on the application, they must be resistant to heat or cold, flexible or rigid, resistant to acids and lubricants or impact-resistant.
