Why this hose?

WELLFLEX PUR 118 AD is a robust PUR protection hose with a spiral of plastic-coated spring steel wire. It is highly abrasion-resistant, highly flexible, compressible and oil-resistant.

The hose is liquid-tight, approved to DIN EN 50369 and withstands temperatures from −40°C to +90°C, short-term up to +125°C.

Where it is used

The hose protects cables where there is wear, oil or liquid, for example on machines and in plants.

The manufacturer names industry and medical technology as the typical applications.

In everyday talk we call it a cable protection conduit.

Fields without a value (—) are not specified in the manufacturer's datasheet. Weight per metre is converted from the manufacturer's weight per roll. Bend radius is the manufacturer's value measured to the hose centre. Inner Ø 6.9 to 48.6 mm corresponds to nominal width for connecting parts 10, 14, 17, 19, 21, 27, 36, 45, 52 and 56 mm. Dynamic bend radius (for repeated movement) for nominal width 10, 14, 17, 19, 21, 27, 36, 45, 52 and 56 mm is 28, 40, 48, 55, 60, 75, 100, 124, 143 and 154 mm respectively.

Standards and compliance

According to the manufacturer's datasheet, WELLFLEX PUR 118 AD is:

  • Up to IP 68 to EN/IEC 60529, depending on design. IP 68 is dust-tight and protected against continuous immersion in water.
  • DIN EN 50369. Approved to the standard for liquid-tight cable protection systems.
  • RoHS. Complies with the EU restriction of hazardous substances in electrical equipment.

Help with material selection

Although this hose isn't ATEX-relevant, these two articles provide useful background on electrical resistance and industrial safety — important if you later combine the hose with electrical equipment or work in mixed environments:

Industries that use it

WELLFLEX PUR 118 AD is used where cables need protection:

In mechanical engineering and on machine tools it protects cables routed on and in the machines, also where they move.

The manufacturer names medical technology as one of the typical fields of use.

Custom lengths and assemblies

All ten sizes come in 10 m rolls. Sizes up to and including 27 mm are also available in 50 m, the larger ones in 25 m. We cut the hose to length.

Frequently asked questions

Is it ATEX-approved?

No. There is no ATEX documentation for the hose, and we do not offer it for use in Ex zones.

What does IP 68 mean here?

The manufacturer states up to IP 68 to EN/IEC 60529 depending on the design. IP 68 means dust-tight and protected against continuous immersion in water.

Which sizes are available?

Ten sizes with inner diameter from 6.9 to 48.6 mm, corresponding to nominal width 10 to 56 mm for connecting parts.

Can it be used where the cables move?

Yes. The manufacturer states a dynamic bend radius for each size, from 28 mm for the smallest to 154 mm for the largest. It is given below the table and in the datasheet.

Can I get it cut to length?

Yes. We cut the hose to length.
