Specifications (S.T.A.M.P.)

The S.T.A.M.P acronym is an industry-wide standard that should begin every conversation when replacing an existing hose, or selecting a hose for a new application. The easy to remember acronym stands for Size, Temperature, Application, Material/Media, Pressure. Learn more about S.T.A.M.P. in our Technical Guide: The Hose Selection Process.

Size:

The hose ID needs to be accurately sized to achieve proper flow velocity. Too slow of a flow leads to sluggish system performance while too high of a flow causes excessive pressure drops, system damage, and leaks.

Temperature:

When specing hose, two temperatures need to be identified: ambient temperature (the external temperature of the hose) and internal temperature (the media temperature). This is where Tough Cover (TC) hose becomes necessary.

Application:

Before selecting a hose, it’s important to consider: what type of environment will it be in? What are the environmental factors? Will the routing be confined? Are fittings permanent or field-attachable? Will the assembly be subjected to abrasion?

Media:

The hose you’re using needs to be compatible with the media being conveyed. Compatibility must cover the inner tube, the cover, hose fittings, and o-rings. Many applications require using specialized oils or chemicals.

Pressure:

Hose selection must be made so that the listed maximum working pressure of the hose is equal to or greater than the maximum system pressure. Surge pressures must also be considered and must also be below the published maximum of the working hose.
