Features and Advantages
Durable Lightweight Polyurethane Tube -
Designed for dry applications where abrasion is a factor. Provides longer hose life and lower operating costs versus similar rubber or PVC hoses.
Food Grade Materials -
Hose complies with applicable FDA(03) 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. (
CAUTION:
This product is designed to dissipate static electricity when the metal wire is physically extracted and securely connected to ground, through the fitting or by other means.)
Transparent Construction -
"See-the-flow". Allows for visual confirmation of material flow.
"Cold-Flex" Materials -
Hose remains flexible in sub-zero temperatures.
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.
Oil Resistant Polyurethane Hose -
Resists most animal and petroleum based oils.
Phthalate Free.
