The manufacturer’s winning formula benefits all of its clients and makes the company an industry leader for engineered metal hoses and assemblies too.

Product and failure analysis

Hose Master is renowned for superior engineering, precisely controlled manufacturing processes, expert quality control, and world-class customer service. The company combines all of these ingredients to produce metal bellows and expansion joints for Sudbury International to distribute.

A key to Hose Master’s success is technical expertise. Designed and built in-house, its proprietary equipment allows creation of value-engineered, quality metal bellows and more that go beyond the standard, and skilled engineers help clients in custom-designing expansion joints for specific, challenging tasks.

Quality control is another major element. Hose Master makes it a guiding principle to manufacture the top quality metal bellows and expansion joints. Its designs comply with the stringent requirements of piping, boiler, and pressure codes, which apply to the fabrication and assembly of pressure piping. This certification means that Hose Master expansion joints get U, PP, and R stamps. Client specifications can be checked through Finite Element Analysis or three-dimensional CAD modelling. Method options for expansion-joint tests include pneumatic, hydrostatic, high-pressure gas, liquid penetrant, plus helium mass spectrometry and radiography.

Another priority is product and failure analysis. Manufacturers must identify root causes of past failure modes of out-of-service products accurately to resolve tough metal-expansion-joint applications permanently. Hose Master’s in-house product and failure analysis laboratory identifies different failure modes, whether they stem from fatigue, corrosion, deformation, or other causes. The organization is the continent’s only manufacturer of metal hoses and expansion joints that offers in-house failure analysis and reverse engineering for free to distribution partners like Sudbury International.

Last, Hose Master provides the exemplary service that its industry demands, with perks like top standard delivery lead time and emergency services after hours.
