ROLLING 'U' TEST

The Rolling 'U' Test is designed to determine the flex life capabililites of hose products. Pharmaline has proved to have many times the flex life to failure when tested alongside the best of the competitors’ PTFE lined hose products.

• PTFE powder is extruded into tube and convoluted.
• Stainless steel wire is wound and braided onto the tube.
• Rubber extruders are used to apply external covers.
