Abstract

This Uganda Standard specifies the requirements for textile- and steel-reinforced rubber hoses and hose assemblies for use with water-based and/or oil-based muds, up to a maximum temperature of 82 Degrees Celicius, which are pumped at high pressure in large volumes in rotary drilling service and which, when tested in accordance with ISO 2977, have a minimum aniline point of 66 Degrees Celicius. This standard applies to hoses which are suitable for use at ambient temperatures between - 20 Degrees Celicius and + 52 Degrees Celicius, unless changed by a supplementary requirement on request of the purchaser, and are resistant to ageing and tropical conditions. This standard does not apply to hoses which are intended for use with gases. This standard was PUBLISHED on 2014-07-31
