Fire, Electrical & Hose Burst Protection
Hose Sleeve & Spiral Wrap Mining Products
Underground mining operations demand the highest safety standards. In confined spaces or near explosive materials, a hydraulic hose failure can quickly escalate into a far more serious hazard. That's why mining professionals trust Caplugs' MSHA (Mine Safety and Health Administration) approved Safeplast Safe-Sleeve (PTPS Series) and Pig's Tail Fire Resistant Anti-Static Spiral Wrap (PTFRAS Series) hose protection solutions specifically certified for underground mining applications.
Our Safe-Sleeve is MSHA approved under certification IC-319/2, offering protection against heavy water and fluid pressures, static electricity buildup and fires. The PTPS Series addresses each threat with specialized features including a high-yarn-count polyester for greater burst and pinhole leak protection, anti-static threads proven to ground electrical charges, as well as a flame-retardant coating that self-extinguishes flames in under 30 seconds.
The high yarn/thread count safely dissipates hydraulic fluid at the ends of the sleeve, preventing dangerous pressure buildup that can lead to serious injuries for miners, as well as severe equipment damage.
Our Pig's Tail FRAS spiral wrap is produced from a conductive thermoplastic compound to ensure proper conductivity/low electrical resistance, helping to relieve static charges and buildup around hydraulic hoses.
Along with our safe sleeves and fire resistant/anti-static spiral wraps, we offer thousands of caps and plugs to protect during manufacturing and masking, as well as protection for threads and connections during storage, service or transport.
In stock and ready to ship, our hose protection can help ensure your mining equipment and employees are protected, avoiding expensive damage and downtime. Don’t trust low-cost alternatives that can fail. Turn to Caplugs for consistency, accuracy and scalability to meet your hydraulic and mining protection needs.
