What Precision Hose & Expansion Joints does

Precision Hose & Expansion Joints is a privately held, family-owned (Wright Family) U.S. manufacturer of engineered metal hose, expansion joints, and related fluid-transfer and motion-accommodation components. Founded in 1991 in Stone Mountain, Georgia, the company operates two production sites — a 105,000-square-foot headquarters and manufacturing facility in Stone Mountain, GA, and a fabrication and distribution facility in Baytown, TX — and reports between 101 and 250 employees. It manufactures corrugated metal hose with wire braid (PL, PM, SM, SH series), stripwound metal hose in interlock and squarelock configurations, metal expansion joints from 3" to 80", fabric and rubber expansion joints, metal industrial dampers (butterfly, louver, slide gate, diverter, radial vane), coolant hoses, hose fittings, braid sleeves, lamp arms, welding rods, and pump connectors, with a new PTFE Hose Assemblies catalog launched in May 2026. Manufacturing uses a proprietary mechanical (non-hydroforming) corrugation process producing continuous, uniform convolutions, supported by 16 ASME Section IX certified welders, 5 CNC lathes, and 1 CNC mill; the company is the only U.S. producer of a full line spanning corrugated and stripwound metal hose along with metal, fabric, and rubber expansion joints.

The business is sales-led, with custom quote-based pricing on engineered products complemented by a same-day e-commerce channel (rubberexpansionjoint.com) for standard rubber expansion joints and field-service offerings (installation, surveys, splicing, root cause analysis, life extension, and replacement). End markets served include data center cooling infrastructure, power generation (HRSG inlet, turbine exhaust, coal-fired), HVAC, refining and petrochemical, aerospace (components on the NASA Mars Perseverance Rover), and specialty applications (medical equipment, refrigeration, microphone arms, instrumentation). Quality and regulatory positioning is anchored by ISO 9001:2015, ASME U-Stamp, National Board R-Stamp, and ISO 10380 certifications. Distribution combines direct domestic/international shipments from manufacturing facilities with targeted marketing through the company website, downloadable catalogs, technical tools, NAHAD membership, and earned-media coverage of certifications and aerospace work.
