Abstract: An arrangement (1, 2) of a coupling (3) and a double-walled tube or hose (4). The double-walled tube or hose (4) includes two coaxially arranged sheaths (5, 6). The coupling (3) includes: a first, inner sleeve (14), surrounding an inner fluid conduit (7) for transfer of a first fluid, wherein the inner fluid conduit (7) is configured to fluidly connect with the fluid conduit (7) formed by the first, inner sheath (14) of the flexible tube or hose (4); a second sleeve (15), surrounding the first, inner sleeve (14); a third sleeve (16), surrounding the second sleeve (15); and a fourth, outer sleeve (17), surrounding the third sleeve (16).

Abstract: A rubber composition for a cover layer of a hydraulic hose includes: ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA); and ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM). In an embodiment, the composition includes ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) and ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer (EPDM) and additives. The additives may include carbon black with a content of around 15 phr, silica with a content of around 20 phr, di-octyl adipate with a content of around 18 phr, aluminium hydroxide with a content of around 124 phr, magnesium hydroxide with a content of around 30 phr, and other chemicals with a content of around 20 phr. The other chemicals may include zinc oxide, peroxide curative, antioxidant, coagents and processing aids.

Abstract: Flange for a hose (2), which flange comprises: —an annular flange body (4) having a central hose opening (5); —an annular locking element (9) for locking the annular flange body (4) in a circumferential groove (3) of a hose (2), which annular locking element (9) is composed out of at least two generally arc shaped locking element parts (9), wherein the annular locking element (9) is concentrically arranged in the central hose opening (5) of the annular flange body (4); and —couplings (7, 8) for each of the at least two generally arc shaped locking element parts (9), wherein each coupling (7, 8) has a first coupling part (7) arranged on the annular flange body (4) and a second coupling part (8) arranged on the respective arc shaped locking element part (9), which first coupling part (7) couples to the second coupling part (8).

Abstract: A halogen-free, fire resistant rubber composition for a fire resistant hose includes: 100 parts by weight of elastomer having a blend of: 60 to 70 parts of ethylene vinylacetate elastomer (EVM), a vinylacetate content of EVM being in the range from 60 to 70% by weight; 40 to 30 parts of terpolymer of ethylene, propylene, and a diene elastomer (EPDM), an ethylene content of EPDM being in the range from 30 to 40% by weight and a propylene content of EPDM being from 60 to 70% by weight; at least one fire retardant ingredient; and at least one vulcanizing agent. The vulcanizing agent is a peroxide curative.
