Key strengths & applications
Chemical inertness
The PTFE tube stays stable in contact with fluids that would attack a conventional elastomer.
Temperature swings
Designed for hot lines as well as installations exposed to sharp thermal contrasts.
Protective stainless braid
Stainless steel holds the pressure and shields the tube in corrosive atmospheres.
