Hose Pressure Testing Services

Smithers Rapra performs a variety of hose pressure testing from a number of specifications including automotive, marine, and industrial. Pressure tests include impulse, static, burst, etc. High and low pressure impulse: Smithers can impulse hoses using air (low pressure), water, radiator coolant, oil, brake fluid, and transmission fluid. Burst: Most burst tests are performed hydrostatically using water or oil as the fluid pressure source. We have capabilities up to 30,000 psi. Proof / leak testing: Applying a pressure to a hose before it burst. Tests typically use water or oil as the fluid pressure source. Circulation / constant pressure: We can circulate fluid at a constant pressure over a period of time. The temperature of the fluid can be either room temperature, cold, or elevated.
