Provided herein are tubular articles comprising electrodeposited nano- or microlaminate coatings, which have improved heat, wear, and corrosion resistance. The present disclosure further provides apparatuses, systems, and methods for the electrodeposition of such coatings on tubular workpieces using fixed or dynamic electrical contact points.

Methods and systems are provided for a flexible support for a vehicle. In one example, the flexible support is formed of a composite material and configured to surround a vehicle component and absorb oscillations generated by the vehicle. The composite material may be a mixture of aluminum particles dispersed in an elastomer matrix.

A firebreak device configured to arrest a flow of medical gas capable of combustion or of supporting combustion, said device comprising: a housing having a body portion, an inlet and an outlet, said inlet and outlet being linked by a conduit; a valve assembly located within said body portion, said valve assembly being movable between an open position, in which gas can flow between said inlet and outlet along said conduit, and a closed position in which gas flow between said inlet and said outlet is arrested; a biasing assembly (340) arranged within said body portion to move said valve assembly into said closed position; and a heat activatable stop (350) located between said biasing assembly and said outlet to hold said valve assembly in said open position against said biasing assembly, and adapted to release said valve assembly to allow said biasing assembly to move said valve assembly to said closed position at an activation temperature, to close flow of gas through the device if said heat activatable stop is activated, wherein: said heat activatable stop is arranged to prevent obstruction of said flow of gas adjacent an inner surface of said device.

A high-temperature insulation for thermally insulating pipes includes a carrier layer, wound helically to form a tubular main body and has four or more windings, and has three or more different insulating layers. The inner winding circumferentially surrounds the inner cavity of the tubular main body. The circumference of the inner cavity is at least 50 mm. The insulating layers are arranged in the gaps between the windings of the carrier layer and contact the carrier layer both radially inwardly and radially outwardly. The insulating layers are arranged in the carrier layer have, along the circular path specified by the winding, a length that corresponds to at least 80% of the circumference of the inner cavity of the tubular main body. The carrier layer, the first insulating layer, the second insulating layer, and the third insulating layer each consist of different materials and/or thermal conductivities and/or temperature resistances.

A heat resistant hose is described. The hose may include a first outer protective and structural woven reinforcing layer comprising a first tubular fabric structure, a second inner protective and structural woven reinforcing layer comprising a second tubular fabric structure, where the second inner protective and structural woven reinforcing layer is within the first outer protective and structural woven reinforcing layer, a hose innermost extruded waterproofing layer comprising an elastomeric material, the hose layer being bonded to, adhered to, or impregnated into or through the second protective layer, the innermost extruded waterproofing layer is within the inner protective and structural woven reinforcing layer, and an intermediate layer interposed between the first outer protective and structural woven reinforcing layer and the second inner protective and structural woven reinforcing layer, the intermediate layer comprising a fabric laminated with a reflective material.
