Why STAMPED Matters

A hose assembly can look right on paper and still fail in the field. Often, the problem starts with a detail that was missed before the assembly was ever built: the wrong pressure rating, an incompatible material, or an end fitting that does not match the application.

That’s where STAMPED comes in.

As an HSI Best Practice, STAMPED provides a structured approach to identifying the information needed for proper hose selection and assembly. By considering Size, Temperature, Application, Media/Material, Pressure, Ends, and Delivery, it helps ensure the right hose is selected for the job.

Identifying a mismatch during the specification process can help prevent costly problems down the road, including downtime, equipment damage, and potential safety risks.

If you’re ordering hose assemblies, ask yourself is STAMPED part of the selection process?

As part of Hose Safety Awareness Month, join Brent Lilly, NAHAD Education Committee Chair and industry expect, for Industrial Hose Inspections (End User Sites) webinar on September 24.

Brent will share practical insights on how manufacturers and distributors can develop End User Inspection Programs that help maintenance, engineering, production, and safety personnel determine whether industrial hose assemblies are safe, functioning properly, and appropriate for their applications.

The session will also explore how inspections can help identify opportunities for improved safety, longer service life, proactive maintenance, and stronger customer partnerships.
