Hoses for the agricultural industry
Best product properties - long life service
Hoses used within the agricultural sector are permanently exposed to extreme working conditions during their use. Particularly during peak seasonal times - used for grain transport in silo vehicles, seed in seed drills and also in feed conveying. Technical hoses must withstand high mechanical loads and comply with strict hygienic, food and ecological standards.
Agricultural industry – a wide range of applications
Hose properties, such as a low temperature flexibility, microbial, UV and ozone resistance, are particularly important for use in agriculture and among other things, decisive for the service life of the hose. During the sowing and harvesting periods in spring and autumn, a temperature drop can occur, so the property of the cold flexibility of a hose is very important. In order to achieve the best possible hose performance, the place of installation, as well as the material to be transported, must be considered when selecting the hose. Therefore, there are specific developments for different fields of application within agriculture, so that specific requirements are addressed.
Agricultural use: Only selected quality
NORRES offers high-performance hose solutions made from Pre-PUR® and soft PVC for agricultural applications. Their characteristics are specially designed for this industry. The application areas are diverse and thus also the hose repertoire together with its specific properties. For instance, the abrasion resistance and thus also a long service life play an important role in pneumatic grain conveying or for the promotion of seed and fertilizer. We therefore recommend the AIRDUC® PUR 355 AS for these applications. The light and highly flexible polyurethane hoses from NORRES, such as the PROTAPE® PUR 301 AS and PROTAPE® PUR 330 AS, are ideally suited for the ventilation of animal stables. Hoses with high cold flexibility stay flexible even at low temperatures, thus offering a low risk of kinking. For this reason the AIRDUC® PUR 355 FOOD or NORPLAST® PVC 379 GREEN SUPERELASTIC is recommended. Smooth and abrasion-resistant hoses, such as the AIRDUC® PUR 351 FOOD or AIRDUC® PUR 355 FOOD, offer a very high flow rate, low pressure losses and low abrasion. Therfore feeds are carefully transported and not contaminated during the process. NORRES Soft PVC hoses, such as the NORPLAST® PVC 388 SUPERELASTIC, have a very good resistance to alkalis, acids and chemicals - ideal for the distribution of insecticides and fertilizers.
NORRES hoses made of Pre-PUR® or soft PVC, especially for agricultural applications, guarantee a long, trouble-free life and increased safety during use - thanks to industry leading product characteristics.
