Hose-Tech Ltd – Delivering Powerful Solutions. tel: 01942 233036 www.hose-tech.co.uk sales@hose-tech.co.uk Hydraulic systems demand the highest standards regarding the cleanliness of hose and pipe assemblies. 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 as customers have come to expect from UNIFLEX products, the robust RG 10 is uniquely designed with customers in mind, with its large water tank, diaphragm pump and 10 m pressure filter. t | +49 (0) 6039/9171-211 e | sayan.mukherjee@uniflex.de w | www.uniflex.de EFFICIENT HOSE CLEANING DEVICE ENGIS says its portable hand lapping plates and compounds have been developed specifically to provide the fits and finishes required for re-conditioning valves - extending valve-life and reducing production downtime.
