Spiral Hoses


*ATP is the CHOICE* For Spiral Hoses Click here to download our new Spiral Hoses catalog. Our spiral hose assemblies are superior because we use 100% virgin materials for improved performance; never “off spec” or regrind. ATP offers many choices in our spiral hose product line. We offer nylon spiral hose for applications requiring high chemical resistance or higher working pressures but the heart and soul of the product line is our polyurethane spiral hose assemblies. We begin with Shore A 98 durometer raw material. This slightly harder material gives our polyurethane spirals improved “memory” allowing the assemblies to retract faster and more completely than competitive hoses. The sagging and tangling is minimized and kinking is virtually eliminated. Our formulation provides a smoother bore for better air flow, better abrasion resistance and longer service life. ATP’s polyurethane spiral hose features a compact, space saving design and smooth 90º transitions from coil to straight tail length, providing more ergonomic benefit to the user. Take a quick look at the our spiral pages and see the choices of spiral hoses that are available. No other company offers so many choices covering so many applications. All are application specific; from a single Techniblue™ spiral hose for your garage or home workshop to a high temperature, chemical transfer application to a demanding 24 hour assembly environment. ATP has what you need. Spiral Hose Terminology: Total Length This will be the total length of the tubing before spiraling. Overall Compressed Length The compressed coil length plus tail length. Working Length Also known as service length. Defined by how far the spiral will stretch, including tails. Working length in standard spirals is approximately 80% of the total length. In Strong™ spirals, working length is approximately 60% of the total length. We are able to quote spirals by working length if you know how far you need the spiral to stretch from point A to point B. We are also able to quote by the number of turns. Tail Length Tails are the straight length of hose on either end of the spiral assembly. Tail length dimensions are included in both total and service length dimensions. If necessary, we can quote compressed coils and add tail lengths to arrive at your requirements. Standard tail lengths are 4” & 20”. Coil I.D. Our coil I.D. is determined by the size of the tubing being spiraled. This I.D. is small enough to allow the spiral to retract and prevent it from sagging while still providing optimum air flow without flattening the tubing. Coil O.D.** Determined by both the coil I.D. and the tubing O.D. to be spiraled.
ATP offers the following types of spiral programs:
	Polyurethane spirals shipped within 48 hours of your order.
	Polyurethane spirals with working lengths that have become industry standards. Available in fractional and metric dimensions.
	An ATP Exclusive. A special manufacturing process allows us to create spirals with a much smaller coil I.D. greatly increasing the memory of the assembly.
	Maximum ergonomic benefit, safety, and finished surface protection. Do we have the spiral for you? Find out for yourself why we call this the “*Ultimate*” spiral.
	Features a specially-blended polyurethane material which gives our hoses better coil retention and longer service life than our competitor’s hose.
	Nylon spirals are recognized as an industry standard for applications which require higher working pressures and higher heat and/or chemical resistance than our polyurethane spirals.
	Exceptional chemical resistance, temperature range - 450ºF to + 500ºF and higher working pressure for the most extreme environments.
	LE Series tubing is specially designed for use in and around welding equipment or other severe- service applications. Meets UL94VO anti-flaming requirements.
	Any combination of ATP’s factional and metric size tubing in any color combination bonded together and coiled to make a spiral hose.
	We have created our “Market Niche” by specializing in customized sizes, lengths, and colors to suit individual needs without requiring huge set-up charges or minimum runs.
