Under pressure for the long run

Single End Yarn for Automotive and Industrial Hoses
The challenge for today’s hose manufacturers is to meet the ever-increasing demands of industry and OEMs for higher working pressures, more flexible handling, excellent dynamic performance, greater durability, and safer,“greener” products. SKS meets these diverse demands with a wide range of high-tech yarns for hose reinforcement
