PTFE Hose
A lined PTFE hose is a flexible engineering solution designed for safe transfer of aggressive chemicals, high-purity fluids, and high-temperature substances across industries. The polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) inner lining ensures exceptional chemical resistance, low friction, and temperature resilience (-70°C to +260°C), making it ideal for demanding applications. The smooth PTFE surface guarantees clean fluid flow, while the flexible outer layer—reinforced with braided stainless steel or synthetic materials—provides strength and durability. This flexibility allows the convoluted PTFE hose to absorb vibrations, accommodate thermal expansion, and adjust to misalignments, ensuring safe operation in dynamic environments.
The PTFE lining resists corrosion from acids, alkalis, solvents, and high-temperature liquids. Available in smooth bore or convoluted designs, the flexible lined hose caters to diverse needs: smooth bore variants optimize flow efficiency, while convoluted types enhance flexibility for tight bends. Industries like pharmaceuticals, oil and gas, chemical processing, and food and beverage rely on its purity retention and system longevity.
Manufactured with FDA-approved PTFE powders, this lined flexible PTFE hose is safe for food applications. Its high tensile strength, resistance to peroxides, and ability to withstand thermal cycling and pressure make it a top choice for automotive, aerospace, and industrial sectors. Integrating this flexible hose enhances durability, safety, and operational efficiency while reducing maintenance costs.
