This is a specialty, high temperature, transfer hose with FEP tube and a smooth rubber cover. It is manufactured with FDA compliant compounds and meets USDA requirements. Its FEP tube is compatible with a wide range of chemicals and can be cleaned with steam, caustics, solvents, or other cleaning agents. The FEP tube is also very smooth, permitting little friction loss and minimal residue (FEP is not designed for transferring abrasive products). Its cover is resistant to abrasion, weathering, ozone, and heat. Due to its hard, smooth tube, permanent swage/crimp/insert-type couplings must be used (NOT internal expansion style) and ends are inspected before and during every use. It is advisable to test the tube material prior to field use and ensure all coupled lengths are fully certified prior to use. All chemical hoses should be drained and flushed after each use.

Construction: Tube: Smooth, white FEP. Cover: Smooth, blue EPDM with white (NL5090 Jack-Chem Brand) or orange stripe (NL5091 Conti Brand). Reinforcement: Two wire helix with multiple layers of synthetic yarn.

Typical Fittings: Swage/crimp fittings, camlocks (confirm chemical compatibility), testing & certification (NOT internal expansion Scovills due to the inability of the tube to expand). Always confirm compatibility of coupling and gasket with material being conveyed.

Temperature Range: -40°C (-40°F) to +149°C (300°F)

Detail Comments: Always confirm compatibility of coupling and gasket with material being conveyed.

Warning: Critical App, Ground Wire when Coupling-Confirm Gasket Type
