Custom-Built Industrial Hose Solutions
We can build hose assemblies right up to a 12inch internal bore, with individual assemblies available in up to 60 meter lengths. All assemblies can be tailored to specific applications; whether your conveying acid, food, or hazardous chemicals all our hose assembly solutions have been developed to meet specific industry requirements.
To provide our clients with quality, custom-built, hose assembly solutions we construct assemblies using only hose, fittings, & accessories from a select pool of manufactures.
Bespoke Industrial Hose Solutions
Our bespoke options often suit clients who need to convey a very specific medium, and/or may posses a requirement for hoses that can endure unique environmental conditions; in these instances, making a bespoke hose the most appropriate solution.
Some of the bespoke projects we undertake for clients can include anything from hoses designed to break free under specific pressures, to hoses that are designed to convey highly dangerous media, such us nuclear waste or highly combustible chemicals.
As a member of the Alfagomma Group, Kiowa holds direct access to hose factories across the world, enabling us to fulfil any bespoke client hose briefs, where others cannot.
Industrial Hose Solutions: Couplings
From advanced breakaway hose fitting technology to a simple flanged fitting, when it comes to achieving the optimum connection, we provide our clients with unmatched options, to ensure your hose assembly possesses the exact connection style you require.
We stock all major categories of industrial hose fittings, from Fire Hose fittings and IBC fittings to Stortz and Bauer fittings, we have over 250 connection options to choose from.
Self-Assembly Industrial Hose Solutions
A common requirement amongst some of our construction and agricultural clients is access to self-assembly low pressure hose kits, that provide the flexibility to use one hose interchangeably, for multi application, non-permanent, media transfer purposes.
For occasional conveyance of low pressure media, such as water or slurry, the self-assembly kits are often ideal where it’s more economical, safe, & practically possible to use one hose universally for multiple applications over short periods of time.
We can tailor hose kits to clients individual requirements, with most kits consisting of jubilee clips, full coils of resin derived hose, & IBC or Cam & Groove fittings.
Specialist Support Arms for our Industrial Hose Solutions
We can supply specially designed support arms that can be used safely across all industries. Supporting arms are often utilised where output flexibility is required, in conjunction with a need to suspend the hose (see example right).
Due the sheer volume of material that hoses can convey, dependant on the required hose routing pathway, it can be necessary to use a hose supporting arm; this can help to mitigate any potential load bearing damage to the hose, preventing hose rupture & pressure build up.
