New Metal Hoses Manual

best seller of the international technical literature is being reissued these days: The Witzenmann GmbH is publishing the Metal Hoses Manual in a completely revised and updated version. With updated information based on the latest international metal hose standards, this compendium is a valuable work and planning aid for specialised staff and executives of many sectors of industry.

There will be a new publication of this classic
Not without reason, the Witzenmann Compendium of Metal Hoses is recognised as the standard work. With the reprint of this classic, the Metal Hoses Manual, Witzenmann makes the worldwide most extensive reference book in this area available to the industry sector. In no other publication, specialised staff of all industrial sectors will find a comparable compilation of valuable, useful and helpful information. From international standards, dimensions, material tables and installation proposals to stability tables for handling most different chemical compositions, Witzenmann has compiled all essential information in the new compendium in a compact way.

Internationally usable
Since the first edition in 1969, the Metal Hoses Manual has been printed more than a 100,000 times in German and English. Since then, it has been an indispensable aid for engineers of many disciplines, just as for technicians, master craftsmen and architects. The new edition was expanded by further international standards and now consists of 415 pages. Newly added were also technical specifications of the miniature metal hoses which in the first place are used in medical engineering and in fibre optics.

Comprehensive, practice-oriented and handy
Dipl.-Ing. Michael Marx, Manager of the Industry business division at Witzenmann, explains why the new Metal Hoses Manual is of such great importance in the industry: “The combination of technical data, extensive installation proposals, examples of use and experiences gained over 120 years in metal hose manufacturing is probably unique worldwide. The numerous sketches, formulas, recommendations and exemplary calculations effectively support specialised staff when creating their own designs. So planners have the opportunity to create own designs. This combination of theory and practice makes our compendium so popular with planners and designers,” Michael Marx explains.
