Low volatile grade, platinum-cured silicone hose is clean room produced for critical pharmaceutical, biopharm, cosmetic, and food applications. Polyester yarn braiding inside the wall enhances the pressure capabilities. APSH has undergone extensive physical, chemical, and biological testing and meets USP Class VI, FDA CFR 177.2600, ISO 10993, European Pharmacopoeia 3.1.9, and 3-A standards. APSH Braid-Reinforced Silicone Hose is not intended for implantation and is not to be used for continuous steam applications.Hardness value of 65 Shore A (validatable liner: 70A; cover: 60A)Extremely flexibleGeneral temperature range: -100 F (-73.3 C) to 400 F (204.4 C)Sterilizable by autoclave, CIP, SIP, and gamma radiation processesLow volatile grade suitable for pharmaceutical and biopharm applicationsListed by the National Sanitation Foundation for food equipment materials (NSF-51)Certified free of animal-derived ingredientsResists temperature extremes, compression set, chemical attack, ozone, radiation, moisture, and environmental exposureImparts no taste or odor to critical streamsStocked in 25 and 50 ft. coilsDocumented lot traceable with identification on bagsDocumented quality controlComplete validation package available upon requestColor tracer braid available for easy identificationSupplied double bagged; other packaging options availableCustom lengths, sizes, andor special cleaning availableAPSH has a Master File with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (#27582)

Stainless steel braided PTFE hose is constructed of virgin material with a 300 series stainless steel wire braid reinforcement jacket. The fluoropolymer core is inert and offers long flexural life, low permeability, non-flammability, and the lowest coefficient of friction of any solid material. The stainless steel braid permits higher pressure uses, reduces the possibility of kinking, and generally protects the core. Optional silicone jacketing offers protection from high temperatures during handling and keeps the outer surface clean and smooth.True Bore PTFE Smooth Core offers maximum flow; Convoluted Core offers excellent flow with enhanced flexibilityStock sizes for True Bore Smooth Core: 14 in. through 1-12 in.; Convoluted Core: 12 in. through 3 in.Hose liner meets FDA 21 CFR 177.1550, ISO 10993 Sections 5, 6, 10 and 11 and is made from USP Class VI compliant materialGeneral temperature range: -100F (-73.3C) to 450F (232.2C)Excellent chemical compatibilityResists moistureEasily cleaned or sterilized by autoclave, steam, or detergentOptional silicone jacketing makes stainless steel reinforced hose easier to handle by offering heat protectionSilicone jacketing also provides a smooth outer surface to eliminate particle entrapment for sanitary conditionsFull line of crimp fittings and custom assemblies offeredCustom lengths, sizes, other overbraiding materials, special cleaning, andor packaging is availableAdd stainless steel armor casing or cuffs for an extra layer of protection from crushing, kinking, harsh environments, and abrasion while still allowing flexibility

Made of virgin grade FEP fluoropolymer, APFRC is overbraided with a tightly-woven fabric and double spiral steel wire to dramatically enhance its pressure-carrying capability. Its extremely smooth core offers excellent chemical resistance and is USP Class VI approved. An outer jacket of EPDM rubber provides enhanced durability and seals the hose against dirt, chemicals, or other external damage. APFRC is now available in a more flexible version. APFRC-W-FLX offers the same physical properties as the original version, however, a noticeable difference is seen in larger I.D. sizes in tight-fitting applications where added flexibility is required.Offers a smooth, non-stick interior for unrestricted fluid flowFEP core is USP Class VI approved and complies with FDA and USDA standardsResistant to kinking and chafingRated for either pressure or full vacuum (29.9 in.Hg.) applicationsGeneral temperature range: -40F (-40C) to 300F (148C)Sterilizableautoclavable (maximum internal steam temperature: 300F at 50 psi)APFRC is not to be used for continuous steam applicationsOuter rubber jacket resists rot, ozone, radiation, and environmental exposureThe FEP core imparts no taste or odor to critical streamsLong lengths available up to 100 ft.
