What is the difference between Copper Hose and Steel Hose

The main difference between copper hose and steel hose is their reinforcing material and corresponding characteristics:

Reinforcing material:

Copper wire hoses usually refer to copper plated steel wire woven in the inner or outer layer of the hose. The purpose of copper plating is to improve the corrosion resistance of the steel wire and possibly improve its adhesion to other materials.

Wire hose refers to the use of non-copper-plated steel wire (usually carbon steel or stainless steel) as a strengthening material of the hose. Such a design is mainly to enhance the physical strength of the hose, such as compressive and tensile properties, without special emphasis on electrical conductivity.

Durability and environmental adaptability:

Wire hoses are generally able to withstand higher pressures and harsher environmental conditions, and are suitable for long-term use in outdoor or industrial environments.

Although copper hose has unique advantages in some aspects (such as electrical conductivity), the overall durability and specific environmental adaptability may not be as good as unplated steel wire hose, especially in highly corrosive or extreme physical conditions.
