Three good hose choices for lye
Lye is a strongly alkaline chemical compound used in many different industries. It is made from wood or sea water, for example. Lye is used, for example, in the manufacture of soap, paper and textiles, because it breaks down fats and oils into glycerin and fatty acids. It is also used in the food industry for disinfection.
It is important to note that the use of lye requires special caution and protective equipment, as it is a strongly alkaline substance that can cause serious burns and skin irritation. The safe use of lye hose must be taken into account in industrial processes, and it is important to inspect hoses carefully before use. Also note that lye or lye-containing rinse water may remain in the hose. Therefore, the lye must be transferred with inspected hoses and the right type of fittings. So let's remember to be careful when handling lye! We help with the planning of hose management and safe use.
EPDM rubber hose is an excellent and safe choice for transferring lye. EPDM rubber is highly chemically and temperature resistant, making it an ideal choice for many industries. Chemflex crimped the hose is specially designed for loading industrial lye tanks and unloading tanker trucks. Its crimped structure makes it very flexible and suitable for applications with a lot of connections. The hose combines flexibility, good pressure resistance and temperature resistance, which makes it an excellent choice for transferring lye.
IDER EPDM rubber hose is a very durable and reliable hose that is suitable for transporting lye of different strengths in industry. This hose has a smooth construction and contains a textile reinforcement and a metal spiral. It can be used for lye suction and pumping. Although the construction of the hose is light, its working pressure is 10 bar and the test pressure of our installations is 21 bar.
The food-grade lye hose is intended for use in liquid transfers in the food industry, such as in the processing of dairy products and beverages. The material of the hose is FDA-approved polymers suitable for food use, which guarantee safe use and the purity of food. The inner surfaces of the lye hoses are smooth, which improves the flow rate and reduces bacterial growth. Their structure is also reinforced with a steel spiral, which makes them durable and long-lasting. The crimped structure of this hose allows washing water to drain away from under the hose. This hose has excellent technical features characteristics as well as extensive food approvals.
