Features and Advantages N/A
  • High Oil Resistance - Meets ARPM (Association for Rubber Product Manufacturers) Class A rating for high oil resistance. Remains flexible when exposed to oils. Won't dry out or crack like other PVC hoses.
  • Fabric Reinforcement - High tensile strength, food grade, polyester yarn provides higher working pressures.
  • Good Chemical Resistance - Good resistance to alcohols and dilute acids. Not suggested for use with hydrocarbons.
  • Transparent - Allows for visual confirmation of material flow.
  • Glass-Smooth Interior - Ensures smooth flow of material and reduces material buildup.
  • Non-Marking Cover - Can be dragged over flooring without leaving marks typical of rubber hoses.
  • Phthalate Free
