How to Deal with Leakage of TPU Layflat Hose
Hits: 204 Time: 2025.07.16
What should we do if the TPU layflat hose is damaged or leaks water during use? We cannot use a single method to deal with this phenomenon, but should adopt different treatment methods for different situations
Scenario 1: The water pressure in the leaking area is not high, but the damage is severe
This situation usually occurs when the hose crosses the road without proper protection, resulting in puncture damage when it is crushed by passing vehicles. The puncture hole is large, causing serious flow loss, and even leaking water that affects a certain range. At this time, we should first turn off the water pump and use a water stop clamp to clamp one meter at each end of the damaged hose. Cut open the damaged area, install quick connectors at both ends, and then connect the two ends together. Finally, release the sealing pipe clamp at both ends. After confirming that there are no problems, restart the pump to deliver water.
Scenario 2: The leaking area has high water pressure and is close to the water pump
This situation is generally caused by the bending of the polyurethane hose wall due to the elongation of the hose during the pressure boosting process. In addition, the vibration near the water pump is relatively strong, and the surface is worn by sharp objects on the ground, resulting in water leakage. If the water leakage is not very serious and the water supply cannot be stopped temporarily, we should lay a cushion on the leaking area, fix it with a fixing strap to reduce vibration, and deal with it after completing the water delivery task. If the water leakage is severe and the water pump needs to be stopped, the leaking hose should be replaced. The replaced hose should be protected and fixed in a targeted manner to prevent this situation from happening again.
Scenario 3: The hose bulges and is relatively close to the joint
This situation is due to the surface of the quick connector sleeve not being properly treated, which scratches the inner wall of the polyurethane hose on the surface of the hose connector sleeve, causing water in the hose to penetrate through the wound to the outside of the hose, resulting in bulging. To deal with this situation, we need to replace the corresponding connector in a timely manner, and the replaced connector should be surface treated again in a timely manner. If this situation occurs on a large scale, it indicates that the production process of the connector is not qualified, which is a very tricky matter and may require the replacement of the hose connector as a whole. This situation is usually caused by the hose connector purchased by the customer themselves. In order to avoid this situation, our technology will remind the customer to treat the surface of the purchased connector when purchasing the connector, and also conduct on-site inspection during installation guidance, Ensure that this situation does not occur when customers use it.
