Product information
Product data
Construction / Material
| Type of construction | extruded hose without metal spiral |
| Material of the wall | partially fluorinated plastic ETFE (ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) |
| Material properties | heat- and steam-resistant material, non-toxic material‚ physiologically harmless, Food compliant (FDA/EU...) depending on type, ATEX conform conductive properties on request |
| Specifications of the wall | non-flammable (UL 94: V0) |
| Product Advantages | reduced stress crack with longer service life, good weldability, tubes are autoclavable or steam sterilisable |
Properties
| Chemical Properties | good resistance to chemicals, good resistance to corrosive chemicals, good resistance to solvents, good UV resistance, weather-resistant, non wetting, iow permeation, chemical inertness |
| Mechanical Properties | material is resistant to stress corrosion cracking, high mechanical strength and impact resistance, friction-reducing‚ self-lubricating material, very low sliding and static friction expressed by a low coefficient of friction, best mechanical properties of all fluorine-containing plastics |
| Physical Properties | low surface energy, good dielectric properties |
| Pressure Resistance | very pressure resistant |
| Colour | transparent to translucent (depending on wall thickness), other colours available according to the RAL colour chart |
| Other | resistance to harsh environment |
Operating Temperature
| Temperature Range | -100 to 150 °C |
| short-term maximum temperature | without load up to 190 °C |
Delivery Information
| Delivery, type of production | only a few standard products in stock, almost all customer-specific dimensions can be realised, special sizes can be produced with minimum production quantities of several hundred metres, packaging in defined ring lengths‚ wound on spools or in cut lengths |
Supply variants
The minimum bending radius specifications for our tubings are partly theoretical and represent typical values at 23 °C. The specifications are provided for comparison purposes only and do not represent guaranteed properties. They must be verified by the user. | The burst pressure specifications for our tubings are partly theoretical and are based on the unit bar at a room temperature of 23 °C. The values are used for product comparison purposes, but do not represent guaranteed properties of our products. Pressure resistance decreases as temperatures rise. For safe operation, we recommend maintaining at least three times the safety margin (max. operating pressure = ambient pressure at the corresponding operating temperature /3).
