Mining Hose
Mining is a tough job. With conditions as rough as they are, you need durable and reliable equipment. Sinopulse offers just what you need.
Industrial mining hoses are designed to handle heavy-duty, high-pressure applications with oil- and abrasion-resistant designs. Whether you need high-temperature air hoses for pneumatic mining and drilling operations, or durable, premium hoses for maximum flexibility in harsh working conditions and materials - Sinopulse has the mining hoses and components to keep your mining operations running smoothly.
Hydraulic Hoses (MSHA Certified)ย - Many of our hydraulic hoses have been explicitly manufactured with MSHA certification in mind. They come with one or two-wire braids and four or six-wire spiral reinforcement layers.
Hose Sleeves (MSHA Certified)ย - Resistant to abrasive materials, UV rays, mold, and bacterial growth. Our MSHA certified hose sleeves are tough enough to work in the mines and can withstand freezing and hot weather conditions.

Hydraulic rubber hoses for use in the mining industry must meet additional requirements, mainly related to the risk of explosion or fire in underground mine operations (e.g. methane explosions, coal dust explosions).
Hoses for use in mining should have the following characteristics:
- Sufficient antistatic properties (to prevent fire or explosion),
- Sufficient flame retardancy (to prevent the occurrence and spread of fire or explosion),
- Sufficient non-toxicity of thermal decomposition products.
In addition to the above safety-related requirements, there may be additional conditions to increase the wear resistance of the rubber outer layer. Compliance with safety requirements is confirmed by certificates and approvals issued by certification bodies authorized to certify products for use in mining in a specific country. These include certificates issued by:
- WUG, KOMAG and other certification bodies (Poland),
- DSK (LOBA) (Germany),
- MakNII (Ukraine)
- GOST-R (Russia),
- MSHA โ Mine Safety and Health Administration (USA),
- FRAS โ Fire Resistant Antistatic, Flame Retardant Antistatic (Australia).
The requirements for mining hoses vary greatly from country to country, as they involve different standards, methods and test criteria, such as flame retardancy. The requirements of Polish mining regulation are the most stringent. Hoses approved for use in mining are usually permanently marked with the name of the certification body (standard) and the number of the relevant approval (certificate). This is a kind of approval mark.
How to Choose the Right Hydraulic Hose for Your Mining Project
In the mining industry, the right hydraulic hose can make the difference between operational efficiency and unexpected downtime. Selecting the perfect hydraulic hose is crucial for ensuring safety and productivity in mining operations.
The selection process involves understanding the specific needs of your mining project and the environment in which the hoses will operate. The right hose should not only be compatible with your equipment but also be able to withstand the harsh conditions on-site.
Key Considerations When Choosing Hydraulic Hoses for Mining
- Material Compatibility:
The type of hydraulic fluid used in the system greatly affects hose compatibility. Ensure that the hose material is compatible with the hydraulic fluid in use. This will directly impact the hoseโs performance and lifespan, especially in demanding mining environments. - Pressure Requirements:
Consider the working pressure of the hydraulic system. The mining hoses you select must handle the systemโs maximum pressure, including any potential pressure spikes, to prevent hose bursts or leaks. - Temperature Tolerance:
Mining environments often expose hydraulic hoses to extreme temperatures. Check the temperature range that the hose can withstand, both for the fluid it carries and the external working environment. - Size:
The right hose size is critical for maintaining optimal fluid flow. A hose that is too large will reduce system efficiency, while one that is too small can increase pressure and heat, leading to premature hose failure. - Wear and Environmental Resistance:
Mining hoses are exposed to rough conditions, such as abrasions, UV radiation, and potentially corrosive chemicals. Look for hoses with protective covers designed to resist these elements and prolong hose life. - Flexibility and Bend Radius:
The installation space in mining machinery is often tight and complex. The flexibility of the hose and its minimum bend radius will impact its routing and ability to bend without damage. - Certifications and Compliance:
Ensure that the mining hoses meet relevant industry standards and certifications. Compliance with these standards demonstrates the hoseโs quality and safety in mining applications.
Choosing the Right Hydraulic Hose for Your Mining Project
Selecting the right hydraulic hose for your mining project is a key decision that impacts safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. By considering the factors outlined above, you can choose hydraulic hoses that meet the specific needs of your project and can endure the tough environmental conditions found on mining sites.
