A fire sleeve is a protective covering designed to provide flame resistance to hydraulic hoses. It is typically made of a woven fiberglass or similar material coated with a high-temperature resistant silicone or other fire-resistant compounds. The fire sleeve is slipped over the hydraulic hose to provide an additional layer of protection against heat, flames, and molten metal splash. Fire sleeves ...

The heat rating of a silicone coated fire sleeve is typically up to 500°F (260°C) continuous, with a peak (short-term) rating of up to 2000°F (1093°C) for 10-30 minutes. However, it's crucial to understand that this is a general range, and the exact rating can vary by manufacturer and specific product line. Here’s a more detailed breakdown: Standard Heat Ratings: Continuous Service Tempe...

When fire sleeve is first introduced, fiberglass alone seemed sufficient. It could handle high temperatures and did not burn easily. However, real industrial environments quickly exposed a problem: heat resistance alone is not fire protection. Fire sleeves are installed where hoses face oil, fuel, vibration, moisture, and unpredictable fire scenarios. In these conditions, uncoated fiberglass degra...
