Fluoropolymer (PTFE)-Lined Hose
Use PTFE-lined hose for applications in which high temperatures or caustic materials make conventional hose a poor choice. PTFE is non-stick, flexible, chemical-resistant and can handle temperatures up to 500˚F (260˚C). As a result, it is the ideal choice for pharmaceutical, chemical processing, and other uses.
SEMCOR is an industrial hose supplier of PTFE-lined hose by Resistoflex® and Aflex Hose — two leading manufacturers whose products are trusted in some of the most demanding applications.
Metal Hose
Flexible metal hose is typically sorted into one of two categories: stripwound and corrugated. Both offer specific advantages for different industrial applications. Stripwound industrial hose is known for its high tensile strength, while corrugated hose delivers advanced resistance to high-temperature, high-pressure, corrosion and leaks. As a result, stripwound hose can be found in appliances, wire protection, vehicles and medical technology among other applications, whereas corrugated hose are typically used in heavy-duty manufacturing and process industries.
SEMCOR carries several different types of both corrugated and stripwound metal hose, including products by Hose Master, Penflex, Kuriyama, and Anamet Electrical, Inc.
Rubber and Plastic Hose
Rubber is one of the oldest and most commonly used industrial hose materials. Plastic, on the other hand, offers a number of the benefits of rubber, including its flexibility, but with added chemical and heat resistance. Whichever type of product you require, SEMCOR can help. As one of the most comprehensive industrial hose suppliers in the Midwest, we carry a wide range of rubber and plastic hose products by Continental (ContiTech), Boston, Home Rubber Company, Kuriyama, Megadyne, Texcel, NRP Jones, Thermoid, and Resistoflex.
Composite Hose
SEMCOR carries composite hose by US Hose Corporation, a leading manufacturer of hose products for chemical, hydrocarbon, marine and cryogenic use. The company’s composite hose offers exceptional chemical compatibility, leak- and seepage-free sealing technology, end-to-end electrical continuity and a number of other benefits not available on other products. Look to us for your Ponoflex, Novaflex, Kuriyama, Megadyne, and Texcel brand names. For more information about the benefits of composite vs. rubber or plastic industrial hose, or help choosing the right product for your application and your budget, contact SEMCOR directly.
Ducting
Flexaust metal ducting offers reliable performance in light-duty industrial applications. The company’s products are frequently used to vacuum up waste liquids as well as fumes, dust and lightweight materials. SEMCOR offers Flexaust products covering a complete spectrum of size, temperature, application, media and pressure configurations. We can also modify or customize any metal ducting product to better suit your needs. Contact us directly for more information.
Electrical Conduit
Electrical conduit can be found in a number of different products and applications, including machine tools, computer and electronics wiring, nuclear power plants, vehicles, industrial construction and military vehicle components. Flexible, corrosion-resistant and tough enough for mission critical tasks, our selection of Anamet Electrical, Inc and Hose Master electrical conduit offers superior value and performance.
Specialty Fittings and Disconnect Couplings
Specialty fittings available from SEMCOR include OPW Engineered Systems’ quick and dry disconnects, and Drylink hose couplings. These products include a special coupler and adapter assembly that prevents pollution and product loss by eliminating drips when changing hose. Several different configurations are available to support high pressure, high temperature and other specific applications.
Application Engineering and Media Compatibility
Industrial hose performance depends heavily on how well the hose construction aligns with the characteristics of the media being transferred. Facilities often evaluate chemical exposure, particulate content, temperature range, and required flexibility before finalizing a selection. SEMCOR supports these decisions by helping teams review liner materials, reinforcement layers, bend radius requirements, and coupling compatibility. This guidance is especially valuable for operations that handle corrosive chemicals, abrasive slurries, or temperature sensitive materials. By aligning hose specifications with real world conditions, facilities can reduce wear, improve safety, and maintain consistent flow performance.
System Integration and Connection Planning
Hose assemblies rarely operate in isolation. They connect to pumps, valves, manifolds, and fixed piping systems that each impose their own mechanical and operational demands. SEMCOR assists customers in evaluating connection types, end fitting materials, vibration exposure, and routing constraints to help ensure that hose assemblies integrate smoothly into the broader system. Proper planning helps prevent issues such as twisting, over bending, or excessive strain on couplings. This approach supports smoother operation and reduces the likelihood of premature failure.
Maintenance Strategies and Lifecycle Management
Industrial hoses experience continuous mechanical stress, making proactive maintenance an important part of plant reliability. SEMCOR helps customers develop maintenance strategies that include inspection intervals, pressure testing, coupling checks, and replacement planning. Understanding how hoses age under different conditions allows teams to schedule service before performance declines. This approach supports better budgeting, fewer unexpected shutdowns, and improved equipment longevity across fluid handling systems.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Information Helps Determine the Right Hose for an Application?
Details such as media type, temperature range, pressure rating, required flexibility, and connection style help guide proper hose selection.
How Can Facilities Extend the Life of Industrial Hose Assemblies?
Regular inspections, proper routing, correct coupling selection, and monitoring of operating conditions help maintain long term performance.
Can Hose Assemblies Be Customized for Unique Requirements?
Yes. Hose assemblies can be tailored through material selection, reinforcement options, end fitting configurations, and fabrication techniques.
