Everflex hose made from PTFE resin has excellent temperature characteristics. It works well in high ambient, fluid or gas media temperatures (+450ºF). It works equally well in cryogenic applications (-65ºF).
Everflex hose has a broad range of chemical resistance. It is inert to most commercial chemicals, acids, alcohols, coolants, elastomers, petroleum compounds, solvents, vinyl's, synthetic lubricants, and hydraulic fluids.

Everflex hose withstands continuous flexing, vibration, or impulse. Everflex hose is compatible with steam. It absorbs no moisture, hot or cold. Everflex hose is non-contaminating Conveyed materials, fluids, or gases will not contaminate in service. It is easy to clean and sterilize for FDA or pharmaceutical applications Everflex hose has high flow rates. Its low coefficient of friction with anti-stick properties insures continuous lower pressure drop during service with good pressure rating. Everflex hose resists deterioration. It is impervious to weather and can be stored for long periods of time without aging. Everflex hose has a long life expectancy when applied within its temperature and pressure ratings. Everflex hose can handle many substances such as adhesives, asphalt, dyes, greases, glue, latex, lacquers and paints. It has no carbon build-up when used as a compressor discharge line. Everflex Smooth Bore hose made from PTFE resin is specified in many of the most difficult applications across various industries. The extruded tube has excellent flex life, high temperature resistance and chemical resistance. Additionally, Everflex hose is an excellent choice in applications requiring steam cleaning of an assembly or transfer of a highly viscous media, such as adhesives, paints or food products. The 304 stainless steel wire reinforcement provides the strength necessary to carry the working pressure and the durability to withstand harsh environments. The optional 316 stainless steel braid is ideal for more corrosive environments. High temperature hydraulic and pneumatic systems, such as those found in steel mills, foundries and transit buses, are ideal locations to offer Everflex hose as a problem solver. Materials meet 21-CFR-177.1550 for use in food handling applications. Everflex S-Series tube is reinforced with 304 or 316 stainless steel wire. All sizes are made from virgin PTFE resin and have a minimum wall thickness of 0.040". That is 33% more material than most other manufacturers offer. The additional material results in improved bend radius, kink resistance and slows permeation of gases. The minimum bend radius is measured in inches to the inside bend. Multiply the bend radius by 1.25 for dynamic applications. |
