However, abrasion during the cutting and crimping of hoses causes the formation of chips or scales, which must not be present, as specified in ISO 4406 and NAS 1638. Therefore, in addition to its world-renowned hose crimpers, UNIFLEX says it also offers special cleaning devices to solve this problem. The company says the cost-effective and environmentally friendly table-top RG 10 is a must-have device for hose production workshops and the robust RG 10 is uniquely designed with its customers in mind, with its large water tank, diaphragm pump and 10 µ m pressure filter. t | +49 (0) 6039/9171-211 e | sayan.mukherjee@uniflex.de w | www.uniflex.de EFFICIENT HOSE CLEANING DEVICE GENAIR a leading hirer of compressed systems and desiccant dryers, says it has had the environmental qualities of its emission free, All Weather All Electric Air Compressor formally recognised by The Green Organisation.
