WELDING RESISTANCE TEST
Each and every lot of manufactured hoses are carefully tested for welding resistance by means of testing devices that are calibrated via institutions who are accredited by TURKAK (Turkish Accreditation association). Due to this test, possible future problems caused by poor welding quality can be detected and prevented in advance.
LEAK TEST
After manufactured hoses are measured for inside diameter, outside diameter, wall thickness and pitch wideness they are forwarded for “Leak Test”. The specification of leakage testing differs according to the hose diameter and varies at Kuzuflex between 4 to 8 bars. (The innerwall is pressurised to be between 3 to 6 bars according to international standards)
HYDRAULIC PRESSURE TEST
Hydraulic pressure test is applied to 100% of our metal hoses and is executed under 50 bars.*
