APFOS Stainless Steel Overbraided PTFE Hose
Advantapure Tubing & Hose
White PTFE or Black Conductive PTFE Core; Smooth or Convoluted I.D.
Stainless steel braided PTFE hose is constructed of virgin material with a series 300 stainless steel wire braid reinforcement jacket. The fluoropolymer core is inert and offers long flexural life, low permeability, non-flammability, and the lowest coefficient of friction of any solid material. The stainless steel braid permits higher pressure uses, reduces the possibility of kinking, and generally protects the core. Optional silicone jacketing offers protection from high temperatures during handling and keeps the outer surface clean and smooth.
