PTFE Hose – Yellow Rubber Hose Food Grade With PTFE Inside

PTFE hoses can also be used for coolant, brake fluid, and racing oils. These hoses can withstand extreme burst pressures.

A PTFE Hose can be used for a variety applications including brake systems and gas lines. It has zero permeation, making it a great material for these applications. It is also safe to use within restricted spaces. It is therefore often found in high-performance vehicles.

PTFE hoses can also be used for coolant, brake fluid, and racing oils. These hoses can withstand extreme burst pressures. For example, the -8AN Series 6000 hose from Fragola has a working pressure of 2,000 psi and a burst pressure of 8,000 psi. PTFE hoses are available in both conductive and non-conductive versions.

When cutting PTFE hose, a hose cutter with stainless steel braiding is necessary. This is the cleanest method, as a hacksaw or grinder-cutoff wheel will leave debris. A pick is another option, as it works with the stainless braid that runs from the liner to cover.

PTFE hoses are known for their flexibility and resistance to chemicals. The material is non-reactive and has high carbon-fluorine bonds. PTFE hoses are also extremely versatile, and can be used in extremely hot and cold environments. For these reasons, they are often used in chemical plants dealing with highly reactive chemicals. They can withstand high temperatures and tough environments without any corrosive properties and are highly durable.

PTFE hoses are available with stainless steel braided covers or nylon braided covers. They provide excellent abrasion resistance. They are also crush-resistant, and have open-pitched convolutions of helical helical for easy cleaning. End fittings in AN-8, AN-10 and AN-12 are available. Nuke Performance also offers a complete PTFE fuel hose, with AN-6 and AN-10 end fittings, as well as 180-degree fittings. Protect injectors and fuel pumps with a PTFE hose.

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) hoses are an excellent alternative to rubber hoses. They are easy to fit and extremely durable. The only downside is that they do not offer the flexibility of rubber. However, they are very chemical-resistant, and they break down much slower than rubber hoses.
