Flexible Hose Range

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is an engineered fluoropolymer. Oustanding resistance to chemicals is one of its primary attributes. A broad temperature range of -67°F to 400°F (-55°C to 204°C) make this hose material suitable for the majority of fluid and ambient temperature conditions found in industry. An extremely low coefficient of friction (0.05 to 0.20) provides a non-stick surface. Water absorption of PTFE is negligible, less than 0.01% by ASTM test. Additionally, PTFE will withstand flexing and vibration without failure from flex fatigue. PTFE is chemically inert; it will not break down or deteriorate in service and has an unlimited shelf life because age and exposure to weather do not change its properties.
