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.

Note
Service life may vary depending on operating conditions and type of material being conveyed.



Compliance Footnotes
BSE/TSE - The majority of the raw materials used in our formulations are not manufactured or derived from materials of animal origin. Nor do our products come into contact with materials of animal origin during processing. Our suppliers of raw materials have assured us their compounds exceed the relevant European Guidance on minimizing the Risk of Transmitting Animal Spongiform Encephalophy Agents Via Human and Veterinary Medical Products.

FDA - Material conforms to CFR title 21, parts 170-199.

Phthalate Free - Manufactured from all phthalate free materials.

RoHS - The product complies with the requirements of the EU directive 2002/95/EC which is on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.

USDA - Hose complies with applicable USDA requirements for use in federally inspected meat and poultry plants.



Caution
Grounding wire is designed to help dissipate static charge when extracted and connected to ground. Hose is not to be used in combustible situations unless it has been determined by the end user the application if not sufficient to result in propagating brush discharge.
