Important Safety Note
Diffusion Abrasion Sleeve (DAS) is a diffusion device and conditionally a burst suppression device
Temperature Range
-60 degrees C to 125 degrees C
Application
  • Widely used as abrasion protection wherever hoses and cables may be exposed to damage through rubbing
  • Gaining widespread acceptance as an effective (though not total) barrier to the dangers of hydraulic hose leaks in the vicinity of personnel, especially in underground coal mining
  • Additional protection can be achieved using two layers of DAS sleeve
  • The sleeve must be securely fixed to the ferrule of the hose fitting if effective protection is to be achieved at the hose to fitting interface. Epoxied heat shrink is preferred, although other methods may be adopted
  • A loose fit is preferred when seeking to gain protection against a hose leak
  • Meets MDG41 requirements
Group Notes
Light crimping of the sleeve to the ferrule using a stainless steel 'DAS Ring' is also recommended. Consult Pirtek for the applicable crimp dimensions
