 Heated Supply Hoses
Astro Packaging has established itself as a prime source for high quality electrically
heated hoses, hot melt hoses, custom hoses for unique applications, and heated
hose accessories and more.
We manufacture hoses that are compatible with most hot melt systems on the
market today.
We also specialize in electrically heated hoses, designed and built to meet
exacting engineering specifications.
Astro Packaging hoses are
electrically heated for operation to 500°F (260°C). They are lightweight and
flexible and can be operated in continuous movement conditions. They are fully
insulated to minimize heat loss and for ease of handling.
Our hoses are available in diameters from 3/16" up and in any length. When
required, hoses can be designed and built to withstand extremely high
pressures.
Every heated hose we manufacture comes complete and ready to install with
either an independent temperature controller or existing hot melt equipment
temperature control systems.
Astro Packaging maintains an extensive inventory of the most popular hot
melt hoses used with the most common hot melt applicators such as Nordson®,
ITW®, Slautterback®, Mercer®, and others.
Our original equipment hoses are 100% compatable with the manufacturer's
controllers and their use will not affect the warranty of that equipment.
If you need any type of hot melt hose or electrically heated hose to fit any
material handling requirement, please contact the factory for pricing and
delivery information now.
