The Institute’s Hose Assembly Guidelines include the HANDBOOK for the Design & Specification of Hose Assemblies and the online Fabrication and Design Guides, which together provide industry-leading performance standards for hose assembly specification, design, fabrication, handling and management.
The HANDBOOK is the industry Guide to hose assembly safety. Access your copy of the Handbook below.
The Composite, Corrugated Metal, Industrial, Fluoropolymer, and Hydraulic Fabrication Guides have been updated and are now available for download.
