BRAIDED HOSE

HYDRAQUIP was established in 1989 as a local supplier of hydraulic hoses. Since then the Group has grown and now operates in two main fields, namely Braided hose assembly (braided flexibles) manufacturing which supplies both the UK and International markets and also operates the largest independent UK fleet of On Site Replacement Hydraulic hose service vehicles. Being leaders in these two areas now give the group an annual turnover in excess of £9 million.

BRAIDED RUBBER HOSE

The Braided Hose Division initially started with one customer in 1993 who were supplied with shower pump hoses. Today we supply a number of industries and cover Air Conditioning, Automotive, Building Services, Catering, Distribution, HEVAC, Marine, Mechanical & Electrical, Plumbing, Vending and numerous OEMS.

Stock sizes ranges go from DN06 (nitrile), DN08 (epdm) up to DN25 (nitrile) and DN50 (epdm) with a complimentary range of fittings to suit. Ex stock and bespoke assemblies are readily available with the option of having customer specified fittings manufactured or own branded hose available for higher volume users.

METAL HOSE MANUFACTURING

Opened in January 2010 our metal hose division is located in a 6,000 sq ft modern industrial unit located in Bolton, Lancashire in the North West of England. The addition of this manufacturing facility continues and strengthens HYDRAQUIP's position in the braided hose market and allows the company to offer a superior level of service combined with a quality product to our customer base.

Our capacity and stocks will allow for the manufacture of single hose assemblies with a choice of end terminations in bore sizes up to DN200 (8”) and also allow us to supply loose hose for distributors straight off the shelf. In addition to the loose components we will be stocking a number of the more popular finished assemblies, which will allow for larger quantities of hoses available for immediate despatch.

The HYDRAQUIP recipe for success has and always will be based on Service & Quality with ISO accreditation first achieved in 1996 and is currently to ISO 9001-2008. As part of this ethos we extend an open invitation to both old and new customers to visit us at our Rochester manufacturing facility to see how we can provide solutions and improvements for your braided hose requirements.
