Products

Automotive

The company manufactures a wide range of Automotive Exhaust Connectors, which is a part of vehicle exhaust system installed between engine and muffler, and is used to decrease noise and vibration from engine exhaust system and absorb thermal expansion of muffler pipe resulted due to high temperature of exhaust gas.

Automotive Exhaust connector is installed between the engine exhaust and the catalytic converter / muffler. In most of the front wheel drive vehicles, engine is transversely mounted because of the compact design. It helps to protect the silencer and engine from forces at the inlet connection due to high temperatures and fluctuations in exhaust flow rates. It compensates for the misalignment of exhaust pipe, seals the line to protect catalytic converter and prevents the air pollution caused by exhaust gases.

The complete range includes Automotive Exhaust Connectors in various types e.g. (Standard Unlined, Inner Braid Lined and Interlock Hose Lined). These are available in all regular sizes and special sizes can also be manufactured according to specific customer requirements.

Industrial

A wide range of metallic flexible hoses are manufactured in SS AISI 304, 321, 316 & 316-L conforming to BS 6501: Part 1: 1991/ISO 10380:2003. The company is the only hose manufacturer in India to receive 'CE' certification.

Stainless steel corrugated hoses are offered from 6mm NB (1/4') to 250mm NB (10”). The annular corrugated hose body provides tight core of the assembly. It also manufactures highly flexible close pitch and heavy duty hoses for special applications.

These are used in Refineries Power Plants Fertilizer Industry Pharmaceutical Industry Chemical Industry Automotive Industry Steam, Hot Water, Pneumatic Service Vacuum Systems Air Conditioning & Refrigeration Steel Plants Nuclear Installations Cryogenic Service Paper Plants Lubrication Systems Defence Industry Boilers Piping Ports & Ship Yards Railways.
