5M
POLYESTER SINGLE JACKET HOSE
Purpose-built for above- and below-ground mining operations, 5M mine hose is a polyester single jacket hose with a neoprene rubber liner that resists burning inherently better than hydrocarbon rubber. This hybrid design has earned 5M the Mine Safety & Health Administration (MSHA) Approval #2G-15/1 for use in mines along with non-sparking brass couplings. The hose features an ultra-tight weave that helps prevent abrasion associated with the rigors of the mine environment, and also prevents kinking as is found with inexpensive hoses.
- Ultra-tough. Designed to resist burning with polyester single jacket neoprene rubber lining and rubber backing; tighter weave promotes greater abrasion resistance.
- Powerful. Operates to a maximum operating pressure of 270 psi (1861.58 kPa).
- Hard-working. Performs at temperature range -40° to 150°F (-40° to 65°C).
- Certified. Approved by MSHA, Approval #18-FHA110001.
HOSE SIZING AND SPECIFICATION
Size | Service Test | Proof Test | Burst | Weight (For 50′ Coupled) |
Bowl Size |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
IN | PSI (kPa) | PSI (kPa) | PSI (kPa) | LBS (KG) | IN |
1 1/2“ | 300 (2070) | 600 (4140) | 900 (6200) | 15 (6.8) | 1 3/4“ |
2″ | 300 (2070) | 600 (4140) | 900 (6200) | 22 (10) | 2 5/16“ |
As per NFPA 1961 – The service test pressure is to be 10% greater than the “normal highest operating pressure” at which the hose is expected to be used.
