Radiator Hose Manufacturing Methods
Our radiator hoses can be produced in several methods, including extrusion, spiral wrapping, calendaring, hand layup and molding. In general, small diameter hoses are primarily produced through extrusion, while larger diameter rubber hoses are typically created through spiral wrapping.
When it comes to manufacturing radiator hoses, the inner liner is extruded first, then this “tube” is reinforced by a layer of knitted fabric (such as polyester, rayon or Kevlar) and covered by an outer layer of EPDM. Next, the hose is cooled in water and cut into lengths. These lengths are placed on shaped metal mandrels. During vulcanization in high-pressure steam, the hoses assume the shapes of the mandrels.
Radiator Hose Materials
Ethylene propylene (EPDM) is the primary polymer used for coolant hoses because of its excellent resistance to heat, hot water and ethylene glycol. EPDM also has good resistance to weathering and ozone damage.
