Corroflon hose was the first convoluted PTFE lined hose product in the world to be developed specifically for process fluids transfer applications in pharmaceutical and chemical plants. Corroflon was launched in 1978, and since then all of the major advances in convoluted PTFE hose design have been pioneered by Aflex Hose and incorporated into the Corroflon hose product range. These include anti-static PTFE, polypropylene braid, and EPDM or silicone rubber hose covers. Aflex Hose also developed and introduced PTFE lined and flared end fittings which protect the end fitting from contact with the process fluid, and provide clean, uninterrupted fluid flow through the end fitting. Over the years, Corroflon hose and end fittings have been continuously developed and improved to maintain market leadership, and design features which have been identified as prime requirements have been incorporated at every stage. These include the thickest wall and the best processed tube lining available, to prevent the development of porosity in the PTFE, which is the primary cause of premature failure in competitors’ products. Corroflon is also fully kink resistant and vacuum resistant due to the tight helical wire reinforcement and the convoluted design profile. The build quality and design excellence of Corroflon hose have been tested and proved in numerous applications worldwide, and hundreds of thousands of Corroflon hoses have been applied and used successfully over the last 30 years. SIZE RANGE: 1/2" (12.7mm) up to 6" (150mm) HOSE DESIGN OPTIONS: Natural or anti-static PTFE, stainless steel braid, with or without an EPDM or silicone rubber cover, or polypropylene, PVDF or hastelloy braid. END FITTING OPTIONS: ASA150 or DIN flanges, Sanitary Triclamps (Triclovers), Camlocks, DIN11851, RJT, RJP and SMS fittings, BSPT or NPT fixed males, BSP or NPSM females, JIC, I-Line and many other standard and special fitting designs. ADVANTAGES: Internally 'wetted' parts are all PTFE, protecting the end fitting from any corrosive fluids. No bore restriction, so fluid flow through the fitting is clean, without entrapment zones.
