PTFE LINED FLEXIBLE HOSE WITH SS304 COVERING AND OUTER SIDE COATED WITH SILICONE WHITE

A unique PTFE hose liner design, which is smooth bore inside but convoluted outside to generate excellent flexibility combined with “hoop strength”. A Grade 304 stainless steel wire covered reinforcement adds to the kink resistance, crush resistance and the resistance of the hose to both pressure and vacuum. A thick wall cover of white Platinum Cured Silicone White rubber is extruded on to the braid and a text line is laser printed on the cover, which includes the hose Batch Number, for traceability. This reinforced PTFE construction is strong enough to withstand full vacuum and kinking without the need for either internal convolutions or the need to bond the liner to an outer cover, making it an ideal hose liner design, and a significant improvement upon standard products currently available.
