Hose pump elements

NBR (Buna N) hose

Overview

NBR (Buna N) hose elements

The hose element is critical to ensure pump performance, durability and efficiency. Bredel composite reinforced hoses are constructed from high-quality compounded rubbers reinforced with up to four individual layers of braided nylon, and finished by high-precision machining. Inner and outer layers are extruded and, after construction, machined to ensure critical tolerances are maintained.

Resistant to oils, greases, alkalis and detergents.

Perfect 100 % compression eliminates slippage which can destroy shear sensitive product and reduce metering accuracy.

Examples of compatible media:

  • Sludge with fractions of hydrocarbons
  • Polyaluminium chloride
