Hose Tec's Tec Flex HT-FLEX Series Metal Hose is constructed from a specially wound single strip of 304 stainless steel with TOE (NPT) threads on both ends. Using only a single liner, Tec Flex Hose replicates smoothness characteristics similar to lined hose. In addition to increasing hose durability, this also helps protect the transferred material from becoming damaged by, or stuck in, the hose's interior convolutions, protecting the material from damage and reducing the potential for cross contamination. In addition, the Tec Flex design provides a superior seal, eliminating the need for the addition of packing materials, which can make lined hoses even heavier and less flexible.
Notes: Hose only. Couplings sold separately.
Features
- Abrasion Resistant - Smooth inner liner similar to that of lined metal hose - resists damage from abrasive materials
- Highly Flexible - Minimum bend radius up to 25% better than lined metal hose
- Leak Resistant - Leak rate of less than half of lined metal hose - doesn't require packing that makes other hoses less flexible
- Smooth Bore - Reduces degradation of the transferred materials and improves flow rates - helps prevent "angel hairing"
- Corrosion Resistant - Suitable for outdoor use where the hose is exposed to the elements
- Heat Resistant - Withstands very high temperatures allowing for the transfer of hot materials
- NPT ends for easy assembly - no welding required
- Made in the USA
