ENERGY-DISSIPATIVE TUBES, ARC-TRAPPING BUSHINGS, AND KITS, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS INCORPORATING THE SAME

摘要

One aspect of the invention provides an energy-dissipative fuel gas tube including: a length of corrugated stainless steel tubing; an inner resin layer surrounding a radially outer surface of the corrugated stainless steel tubing; a laminated foil layer surrounding a radially outer surface of the inner resin layer; and an outer resin layer extruded over a radially outer surface of the laminated foil. The laminated foil layer includes: a foil and a high-tensile-strength material bonded to the foil. Another aspect of the invention provides an energy-dissipative fuel gas tube including: a length of corrugated stainless steel tubing; a resin layer surrounding a radially outer surface of the corrugated stainless steel tubing; and a laminated foil layer surrounding and bound directly to a radially outer surface of the resin layer. The laminated foil layer includes: a foil and an outer protective layer bonded to the foil.
