Abstract: A hose including at least one rubber layer, an outer cover, and at least one barrier layer provided between the rubber layer and the outer cover, wherein the barrier layer is configured to prevent rubber from the rubber layer from reaching the outer cover during curing of the hose. In one embodiment, the rubber layer is the hose inner tube and the outer cover is braided wire. In another embodiment, the barrier layer includes at least one layer of polymeric film. In another embodiment, the hose can include at least one reinforcing layer provided between the rubber layer and the barrier layer. In another embodiment, the hose can include at least one intermediate layer provided between the rubber layer and the barrier layer, where the intermediate layer is formed from a porous material. In another embodiment, the hose can include at least one retaining layer provided between the barrier layer and the outer cover, where the retaining layer is formed from a polymeric material.

Abstract: A spiraling apparatus is provided that includes a rotatable deck having a deck plate that includes first and second sides. A plurality of first spools are rotatably attached to the first side of the deck plate. The first spools include a length of reinforcement wound thereon. A plurality of second spools are rotatably attached to the second side of the deck plate. The second spools also include a length of reinforcement wound thereon. A tension regulating device is adapted to regulate tension in the reinforcement as the reinforcement is removed from the first and second spools during rotation of the deck.
