Overview

APEX CSM hose elements

The hose element is critical to ensure pump performance, durability and efficiency. Bredel APEX composite reinforced machined hoses are constructed from high-quality compounded rubbers reinforced with several individual layers of braided nylon, and finished by high-precision machining. Inner and outer layers are extruded and, after construction, machined to ensure critical tolerances are maintained. APEX CSM hoses are available for APEX 10/15/20 pumps only. Outstanding resistance to strong, oxidising products and concentrated acids and bases.

Perfect 100 % compression eliminates slippage which can destroy shear sensitive product and reduce metering accuracy.

Examples of compatible media:

Hydrogen Peroxide up to 60 %
Cationic flocculant (polymer)
Highly concentrated Sulphuric Acid
