Stainless Steel Braided PTFE Hose Performs Well Under High Pressure & Temperature

Stainless steel braided PTFE hoses are extremely common in today’s market since they can be used to distribute gasses and liquids efficiently and safely. In fact, braided PTFE hoses are so versatile, they have revolutionized modern living and business. Available in all sizes and types, they are found everywhere from manufacturing plants to homes. When deciding what type of hose assembly you may need in your manufacturing, it is hard to overlook the PTFE braided hose.

Here are 8 reasons you should be using PTFE braided hoses in your manufacturing process:

Braided PTFE hose is strong and durable.

 It is different from other hose in the market because of the woven stainless steel reinforcement over the hose tubing, that gives added strength.

Braided PTFE hose performs well under high pressure.

Really well! In fact, PTFE braided hose surpasses most other hoses when performing under high pressure.

Braided PTFE hose is extremely temperature resistant.

In situations where hoses are exposed to extreme weather conditions, PTFE braided hose is an excellent choice.

PTFE braided hose is resistant to almost all common chemicals in the market today.

The only known chemicals that can damage PTFE are molten alkali metals and halogenated chemicals, making braided PTFE hose ideal for various manufacturing

environments. Some others to consider at high temperatures. Visit our Chemical Compatibility Matrix for more information.

Braided PTFE hose is excellent for food & beverage manufacturing.

These hoses are not damaged with prolonged contact with moisture. Plus, contact with PTFE does not add odor, taste, or color to any chemicals, earning its stamp of approval by the FDA for contact with food.

Braided PTFE hose provides added security against fire.

PTFE braided hose assemblies are proven safe because of the protection they provide against fire and thus are frequently used for fire extinguisher systems and pressure gauge lines. The hose can also be further protected from high heat environments with a heat sleeve over the stainless steel braid reinforcement.

Braided PTFE hose is very flexible.

The reinforcements of the stainless steel braids allow the hose to be utilized in motion and vibration processes while maintaining its durability. The hose can be bent considerably, depending on size and overall construction: smooth-bore, convoluted and, or outer cover/s. See our hose product specifications for minimum bend radius information.

Braided PTFE hoses offer unsurpassed cleanliness

 Since chemical compounds within PTFE braided hoses are almost completely resistant to sticking, they are resistant to damage from the chemicals it is transporting.

This universal and durable hose offers cleanliness, durability, extensive shelf life, safety, and flexibility, making PTFE braided hoses a wonder material of modern manufacturing.
