PTFE Hose Assembly
A PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) hose assembly is a type of hose assembly used in various industries for transporting fluids and gases. PTFE is a synthetic fluoropolymer with exceptional chemical resistance, high-temperature tolerance, and non-stick properties, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
- PTFE Hose Core: The innermost layer of the assembly is the PTFE hose itself, which provides the primary fluid or gas-carrying conduit. PTFE hoses are known for their smooth, non-stick surface, which allows for excellent flow characteristics and minimizes the risk of fluid contamination.
- Braiding or Reinforcement: Depending on the application and pressure requirements, the PTFE hose may have one or multiple layers of reinforcement made from materials like stainless steel, polypropylene, or Kevlar. This reinforcement helps to increase the strength and pressure resistance of the hose, preventing it from collapsing under vacuum or bursting under high pressures.
- End Fittings: At each end of the PTFE hose, there are fittings that provide the means for connecting the hose to the equipment or system. These fittings can be made of various materials, including stainless steel, brass, or other alloys, depending on the intended use and compatibility with the transported fluid or gas.
