What do hydraulic hoses and hydrostatic testing have in common? Well, for one, they are both new services for us here at Thermal Protection Services. But it’s more than just that; there’s something to be said about the convenience of local experts being able to test, repair, or replace equipment quickly.
Whether you’re a mechanic on the scene of an excavation site or powering heavy machinery and equipment with pressurized fluids at a manufacturing plant, you know that hydraulic hoses play a vital role in maintaining fluidity on the job site. Just like anything else that works hard, hoses can wear out and sustain damage over time that require prompt repairs or replacements. Need a new hydraulic hose made, or need one repaired? We've got you covered. We're able to work on NPT, Metric, DIN, BSPP, Flange, CAT, JIC, O-ring Face, Pipe, Boss, Compression, Custom Bends, Hydraulic Hoses 3/16"-2", Reusable Fittings (R5, R1, R2), Adapters Metric, BSP, Standard, Quick Couplers, Gauges, and Valves. In other words, if you need it, we can do it.
Hydrostatic testing is crucial to ensure the integrity and safety of pressurized vessels like scuba tanks and propane tanks in personal, commercial, and industrial settings. With many industries having strict safety regulations and standards in place, it’s helpful to have local experts take care of the potential hassle of compliance with regulations.
Let’s break down the benefits of same-day hose repairs and new hose fabrication:
1. Local Expertise

Customization Options
Local professionals have the capability to fabricate hoses to precise specifications, including length, diameter, and material composition. This customization ensures an exact fit for your machinery and minimizes the risk of future hose-related issues.
Hydrostatic testing is a critical process used to examine the strength and integrity of pipes and pressure vessels such as scuba tanks and propane tanks. The process involves subjecting the tank to pressure higher than its normal operating pressure to identify potential weaknesses or leaks. Here’s why it’s crucial:
1. Safety Assurance
Hydrostatic testing ensures that pressure vessels are structurally sound and capable of withstanding the intended operating pressures. Identifying any weaknesses or defects before continued use can prevent catastrophic failures and potential harm to individuals and property.
2. Compliance with Regulations
Many industries have strict safety regulations and standards in place for protective measures. Regular hydrostatic testing is often a requirement to meet these regulations, ensuring compliance and avoiding legal issues or penalties.
Hydrostatic testing, although much different than hydraulic hoses, comes with similar benefits in regard to local expertise. Choosing a local service for hydrostatic testing offers several advantages:
1. Quick Turnaround Time
When it comes to pressure vessels, time is of the essence. Local testing services provide the convenience of quick turnaround times, minimizing downtime and allowing you to resume operations quickly.
2. Comprehensive Testing Services
We offer a range of testing options for various pressure vessels. This includes scuba tanks, propane tanks for personal, commercial, or industrial use, fire extinguishers, and more.
