EPDM Moulded Hoses According to EN 45545-2: Reliable Solutions for Railway and Fire Protection Applications
Safety, material resistance and compliance with standards play a central role in rail transport. Especially when it comes to technical rubber products used in railway vehicles, materials must be designed to meet defined requirements in the event of a fire.
JUNG GUMMITECHNIK manufactures EPDM moulded hoses for demanding applications in the railway industry. The specially tested EPDM compound is tailored to meet the requirements of EN 45545-2 and is suitable for applications according to R22 and R23 / HL1 and HL2.
What makes EPDM moulded hoses stand out?
Our EPDM moulded hoses are developed for demanding installation situations where standard solutions are often not sufficient. Tight installation spaces, special geometries or safety-critical areas of application require customised hose solutions with high durability.
The key properties at a glance:
- Flexible moulded hoses for demanding installation situations in railway vehicles
- Tested EPDM compound, sulphur-cured and halogen-free
- REACH and RoHS compliant
- Designed to meet requirements for flammability, smoke development and toxicity
- Durable, robust and reliable in use
- Suitable for safety-critical applications in railway and fire protection environments
Why EN 45545-2 is important for technical rubber products
The EN 45545-2 standard defines requirements for the fire behaviour of materials and components used in railway vehicles. This includes aspects such as flammability, smoke development and the toxicity of gases generated in the event of a fire.
For manufacturers, operators and suppliers in the railway sector, this is crucial: only suitable and tested materials help reliably support the safety of passengers, personnel and vehicle technology.
Customised moulded hoses for complex requirements
JUNG GUMMITECHNIK produces technical rubber products according to customer requirements. This includes hoses, moulded hoses, elbows, moulded parts and special components for a wide range of industrial applications.
Especially with moulded hoses, the right combination of material, geometry, media resistance, temperature resistance and mechanical durability is essential. Our EPDM moulded hoses are therefore adapted to the specific requirement profile and designed for the respective application.
Not only for railways: tested quality for further fire protection applications
The railway industry is the central target market for these EPDM moulded hoses. Its requirement profile plays a key role in the development and testing of the material.
At the same time, the same tested quality may also be of interest for other fire protection-related segments. Wherever technical rubber products with high safety standards, clearly defined material properties and reliable resistance are required, EPDM moulded hoses from JUNG GUMMITECHNIK can be a suitable solution.
