Dixon’s latest sanitary hose bumper system ensures secure attachment, effortless cleaning, and exceptional versatility across multiple industries. Featuring an easy installation process and a patent-pending two-position design, maintaining sanitary connections has never been more reliable and efficient.
Overview
Hose bumpers serve as protective accessories, shielding hose ends from physical damage during handling, operation, and storage. By acting as a buffer between the hose end and hard surfaces, they extend the lifespan of hoses and prevent unnecessary wear and tear.
Dixon’s 14-SHB Series Sanitary Hose Bumper System is engineered to prevent accidental detachment from the crimp stem, even when subjected to dragging or impact. Its open design allows for comprehensive cleaning of all fitting surfaces while ensuring complete protection of the hose end.
