Details

N/A Construction:

  • Inner Tube:
    -Chemfluor® natural PTFE fluoropolymer

  • Reinforcement: Polypropylene braid
    -Each strand of large diameter (denier) polypropylene monofilament is twisted and subsequently twined prior to braiding
    -Tested for maximum abrasion and chemical resistance
Fittings
  • PermaSeal® crimp-style
    -Over 40 styles of 316L stainless steel conventional fitting designs
    -Standard: 316L stainless steel
    -Consult factory for optional fitting materials - carbon steel, PVDV (Kynar®), polypropylene or other alloys
    -This design eliminates the need for a secondary crimp collar or plastic heat shrink tubing
    -Also assures hose pressure rating to rated operating pressure
