<p>Hose With Wire Braid Reinforcement And Method of Making Such Hose This disclosure relates to a hose including a tube and a braided wire reinforcement covering the tube. The wire braid includes a plurality of interwoven strands of wires, and each strand includes a plurality of wires having a uniform tension and a twist of from approximately one turn for each two and one-half to three inches. Further, each of the wires of the strand is preformed to produce a helical tension spring configuration, and the strands are braided under a relatively high tension. The hose is made by a method including the steps of preforming wires to produce the helical tension spring configuration, combining a plurality of such wires under a uniform tension and twisting such wires to form strands, and braiding a plurality of such strands under high tension.</p> |
