This Dixon M15-50RAF mill hose has a 1-1/2" inside diameter (ID) and is 50' in length. Its cover is a single jacket of polyester for resistance to abrasion and flex fatigue, with a rubber liner for resistance to aging and ozone. It has a 1-1/2" National Standard Thread (NST) female expansion ring coupling with rocker lug for quick attach on one end and a 1-1/2" NST male on the other end. It has a maximum pressure rating of 112 pounds per square inch (psi). This mill hose is suitable for use in open-end water discharge applications.Industrial hoses transfer or convey air or liquid in hose systems. When selecting industrial hoses, use the STAMPED method to help determine the type of hose needed:S = Size (ID, OD, and length)T = Temperature (maximum and minimum temperatures of material being transported)A = Application (industry or process)M = Material (to be conveyed, type and concentration)P = Pressure (maximum working pressure)E = Ends (type of end connectors or couplings on hose)D = Delivery method (volume and velocity)The inside diameter of the hose must be adequate to keep pressure loss to a minimum and avoid damage to the hose due to heat generation or excessive turbulence. The hose must be capable of withstanding the minimum and maximum temperatures that occur within the hose system. Some applications require specialized oils or chemicals to be conveyed through the system. In this case, hose selection must ensure compatibility of the hose tube, cover, couplings and O-rings with the fluid used. Industrial hoses are used in systems such as air compressors, automatic manufacturing operations, aircraft controls, and tire installation in industries including agriculture, mining, road construction, firefighting, and aviation.Dixon Valve & Coupling Company manufactures pipe and hose fittings and accessories.
