Industries

The brewery industry relies heavily on high-quality brewery and washdown hoses to maintain efficient operations and ensure product integrity. From transferring raw ingredients to moving finished beer between tanks, these hoses are a critical part of daily production. 

The winery industry depends on high-quality hose solutions to support daily production and preserve the integrity of each vintage. From transferring grape must to moving wine between fermenters and barrels, hoses play a vital role in maintaining a clean, efficient workflow.

The steel industry operates in one of the harshest industrial environments, where extreme temperatures, abrasive materials, and high-pressure systems are the norm. Hydraulic hoses are essential for operating heavy machinery and must be heat-resistant, durable and capable.

The data center cooling industry requires components that deliver consistent thermal control, energy efficiency, and uninterrupted performance in always-on environments. Ray Lewis & Company supports data center thermal cooling systems with industrial hose assemblies, sealing solutions, mechanical components, and fluid handling products designed for reliability and long service life. These solutions help protect critical infrastructure while supporting efficient cooling across modern data center architectures.

The aggregate and cement industry operates in demanding environments where rugged, reliable components are essential. Hydraulics are heavily utilized on crushing and screening equipment, loaders, and other mobile heavy machinery to deliver consistent power and control. Conveyor belts play a critical role in moving bulk materials such as sand, gravel, lime, cement.

The chemical industry demands highly specialized fluid handling solutions to ensure safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance. Industrial hoses are used extensively for SWAN applications—steam, water, air, and nitrogen—as well as for transferring a wide range of aggressive chemicals.

The food and beverage industry depends on a diverse range of specialized products to maintain efficient, hygienic, and compliant operations. Food-grade hoses are used for transferring both liquid and dry ingredients, ensuring product purity and meeting FDA and USDA standards.

The mining industry operates in some of the harshest environments, demanding rugged and reliable fluid handling solutions. Hydraulic hose is essential on all large mining equipment, including haul trucks, loaders, and drills, providing the power needed for heavy-duty operations both above and below ground.

The oil and gas industry relies on a broad range of fluid handling and hydraulic solutions to support operations across upstream, midstream, and downstream sectors. Drilling contractors use large quantities of hydraulic hose to power drilling rigs and related equipment, along with rotary drilling hoses and industrial hoses for liquid mud transfer, water movement, and general fluid handling.

The power generation industry spans a wide range of technologies, each requiring specialized fluid handling and motion control products. In natural gas power plants, metal hose assemblies and high-performance gaskets are critical for managing thermal expansion, vibration, and sealing needs in high-temperature, high-pressure environments.

The pulp and paper industry depends on a wide array of sealing, fluid transfer, and motion control products to support continuous, high-volume production. Gaskets are essential throughout the facility, used to seal water, adhesive, and chemical piping systems, ensuring leak-free operation under high pressure and temperature conditions.

The rental industry serves a wide range of markets, requiring an equally broad selection of fluid handling and hydraulic products to support its equipment and service divisions. Hydraulics are essential across all rental equipment fleets, powering lifts, earth movers, and other mobile machinery.

The liquid transportation industry—including bulk carriers and tank truck operators—depends on durable, high-performance industrial hose systems for the secure transfer of water, fuel, chemicals, and food-grade liquids. Hoses must be chemical-resistant, abrasion-tolerant, and capable of withstanding varied temperatures and pressures.

Petroleum & Chemical Transfer Terminals
Petroleum and chemical transfer terminals rely on rugged, chemically compatible industrial hose systems for the safe loading and unloading of fuels, solvents, acids, and other hazardous liquids. These hoses must meet strict standards for pressure, temperature, and static dissipation.
