ACC is one of the main manufacturers of composite hoses in Asia. We offer custom composite hoses that are flexible, easy to operate, light, safe and durable.
ACC composite hose is composed of a variety of polymer material reinforcement layers, a sealing layer and an external anti-wear and anti-aging layer, fastened steel wire support. It is designed, manufactured and tested in strict accordance with EN 13765, BS 3492, BS 5842 and ISO 9001 standards.

Specially designed for applications in tank trucks, oil terminals, oil tankers, chemical, refinery fields and other places where hoses need to be installed, uninstalled and moved frequently.
The construction of composite hoses is depending on the medium and application, with different wire helix materials (galvanized carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum), different types of films and fabrics (polypropylene, polyamide, ECTFE, polyester, fiberglass or aramid fiber).
Light weight, small bending radius, easy to handle.
Good flexibility, can eliminate sudden pressure changes.
Multi-layer protection, prevent a sudden burst from happening, high safety.
Anti-UV, anti-aging, good durability.
Good electrical conductivity, can eliminate static electricity on the hose wall in time.
Various types, can adapt to different working conditions.
Good hand feel, won’t prick your hands, rich colors.
Before the emergence of composite hoses, traditional rubber hoses and stainless steel hoses were commonly used in transferring liquid petrochemical products. In cases where hoses are often disassembled and moved, there are some obvious shortcomings of rubber hoses and stainless steel hoses. Composite hoses are a new generation of safety hoses that has better overall performance and reduces cost. They are specifically designed for the replacement of rubber hoses and stainless steel hoses.
| Type | Weight | Bend Radius | Conductivity | Corrosion Resistance | Safety | Hand Feel |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Composite Hose | Light | The smallest, good flexibility | Excellent | Excellent, suitable for different kinds of chemical materials | Excellent | Good |
| Steel Hose | Light | Twice as big as that of composite hose | Excellent | Good | Ordinary, outer net sleeve easy to be broken | Poor |
| Rubber Hose | Heavy | 3 times as big as that of composite hose | Poor | Poor | Good | Good |
Compared with the rubber hose of the same specification, under the same conditions of use, the composite hose is 40% lighter than the rubber hose, and the minimum bend radius is 1/3 of that of the rubber hose. It is light, flexible, and suitable for places with greater mobility, such as oil tanker loading and unloading. A composite hose can be used flexibly in narrower workplaces, which is unmatched by other kinds of hoses.
A composite hose has good resistance to positive and negative pressure. The working pressure of this hose can reach 1.0-4.0 MPa, and the negative pressure can reach 0.1 MPa. Under the same conditions, the pressure resistance of composite hoses is also better than that of rubber hoses of the same specification as rubber hoses cannot bear pressure with a large bend radius.
Because composite hoses use synthetic resin as one of the main materials, it has better resistance to various aromatic hydrocarbons and chemicals than rubber hoses and steel hoses. It is especially suitable for some acid and alkaline liquids which rubber hoses and steel hoses are not resistant to. Composite hoses have good temperature resistance and can withstand temperatures from -60°C to 220°C under normal use.
When the liquid flows in the hose, static electricity will be generated due to pressure, flow rate, friction with the hose wall, and other reasons, which may cause ignition. Composite hoses have good conductivity and are safe and reliable to use.
ACC composite hoses are manufactured through professional manufacturing process technology to ensure consistent quality: uniformity of hose wall thickness, the accuracy of diameter size.
