INSTALLATION RULES FOR FLEXIBLE STAINLESS STEEL HOSES
DO NOT TORQUE
A hose is subjected to torque by:
• Twisting in installation. To minimize possible torque damage
to a hose, a union or floating flange should be used at one end
of the hose assembly.
Where flanges are used, the fixed flange end should be bolted
into place before the floating flange end.
Where a threaded nipple and a union are used, the nipple end
should be threaded into place, and then the union tightened into
place using two wrenches.
• Twisting on flexure. Always install the hose so that flexing
takes place in one plane only, and in the plane of bending.

AVOID SHARP BENDS

• There are many ways a hose can be subjected to recurring sharp
bends as a result of improper installation.
The minimum centerline bend radius for intermittent
flexing should never be less than the values specified.
• Should piping restrictions make it impractical to install hose in
the proper manner, the use of an interlocked hose guard will
limit the hose bending to a suitable radius, thus prolonging the
life of the flexible metal hose.

INSTALLATION RULES FOR FLEXIBLE RUBBER HOSES
Wrong
Right
• To design an expansion loop, TOPRING flexible hose must
always be installed with enough slack to provide for length
changes which will occur when pressure is applied
Right
• Avoid twisting of the hose and never exceed the bend
radius indicated
• Pressure applied to a twisted hose can result in hose
failure or loosening of connections
Right
• To avoid hose collapse and flow restriction, keep hose bend
radius as large as possible
• Never bend the hose immediately out of connector. Ensure
a minimum length equal to 5 times the external diameter of the
tube between the end of the connector and the start of the bend
Wrong
Right
• Use a TOPRING 90 ° elbow in place of a tube-to-tube
connector to avoid sharp twists or bends in hose
• Avoid positioning TOPRING flexible hose against a
sharp edge or next to a surface against which it can rub
