PRESSURE TESTING

Before despatch, all hose assemblies are hydrostatically pressure tested to 1.5 times the Maximum Working Pressure of either the hose or the end fitting, whichever has the lower M.W.P. A Test Certificate can be issued if required.

Loose lengths of hose supplied for self-assembly by the Customer are not pressure tested, and so should be gas pressure tested (under water) before use by the Customer after assembly with end fittings.

TEMPERATURE LIMITATIONS

Usable from -73°C, -100°F up to +204°C, +400°F.
Reduce maximum working pressures by 1 1/2% for every 1°C (1.8°F) above 130°C (266°F).

VACUUM LIMITATIONS

Useable at full vacuum up to 285°F, 140°C.

FLOW RATES

More than 2x the flow rates for convoluted bore PTFE Lined hose designs due to laminar flow (convoluted hose creates turbulent flow which reduces flow rates). Consult Aflex Hose for specific flow rate information.

GAS PERMEABILITY

More than 2x lower permeability than other smooth bore PTFE lined hose designs, due to the heavy compression applied to the PTFE during processing, which reduces micro porosity.

'ROLLING U' TEST FOR FLEX LIFE

More than 15x the flex life to failure compared with all other types of competing PTFE lined hose products.

FLEXIBILITY

Much less force to bend than any other smooth bore PTFE lined hose product.

KINK RESISTANCE

Much more resistant to kinking than any other smooth bore PTFE lined hose product.

Pharmalex

Pharmalex

Pharmalex is a very flexible, patented smoothbore PTFE lined hose product with a clear silicone rubber cover. It is designed to replace conventional all-silicone rubber hoses in applications where the inner silicone rubber liner may be subject to chemical reaction with fluids passing through, which may either contaminate the fluid, or degrade the rubber liner.
