These are handy hose protection guards that can be quickly and easily installed onto a hose or pipe without having to remove the assembly from service. They are designed to protect the cover from abrasion, chaffing or wear and are resistant to wide variety of chemicals and oils. Each guard has molded grooves for plastic 'cable ties' (sold separately). However, if plastic 'cable ties' will not stand up in the environment, we also offer stainless "Tie-Loks" listed in the clamp/strapping section of this catalogue. Temperature range on Epha guards is -40°C (-40°F) to +221°C (+430°F).
