The Heavy Wall PTFE Hose features improved kink resistance and enhanced resistance to gas permeation over the regular hose due to an increased wall thickness. These PTFE hoses have exceptional chemical compatibility and handle temperatures as high as +450°F. They are used in numerous applications including but not limited to chemical transfer lines, high temperature general hydraulics, and coolant lines. The PTFE core tube resists moisture and offers the lowest coefficient of friction of any known plastic, therefore minimizing pressure drops and deposits.
PTFE hoses are less susceptible to cracking from stress or flexing than metal hoses.
