NL5150 is a crystal clear, wire reinforced PVC hose that provides greater kink resistance over "tubing" and has a very smooth interior to prevent buildup. It is commonly used as a full vacuum or discharge line for beverage dispensing, potable water, deionized water, milk, juice, wine, syrup, high purity air, certain light chemical solutions, and various foodstuffs. The wire helix resists external abuse/crushing whereas a traditional PVC helix can typically crack. This hose is popular in food, packaging, industrial/commercial, and marine applications. This non-toxic, non-marking, silicone-free hose meets FDA, NSF, 3A, RoHS, and USDA requirements & is CFIA approved. A heavier wall version is also available from the factory on special request (NL5151). For industrial applications where there is less requirement for a high purity hose, we also offer a lower price point version (NL5145-).
