Features and Advantages
  • Food Grade Materials - Hose complies with applicable FDA(03) and 3-A(01) requirements. Hose complies with applicable USDA(12) requirements.
  • Grounding Wire - Multi-strand wire helps prevent the build-up of static electricity for added safety and to help keep material flowing smoothly. It's embedded within the rigid helix to prevent contamination of transferred materials.
  • Transparent Construction - "See-the-flow." Allows for visual confirmation of material flow.
  • Easy Slide Helix - Exposed rigid helix design protects hose tube from cover wear, and allows hose to slide easily over rough surfaces. Easy-to-handle.
  • Phthalate Free
