Automotive has
brought the manufacture of tape wrapped convoluted hose of PTFE to the
state-of-the-art. Advanced manufacturing techniques combined with strict
quality control have combined to earn this general purpose product a unique
place in a wide spectrum of industries and applications. Chemical plants,
food processing and pharmaceutical companies, petrochemical sites, pulp and
paper processors and general industrial companies of all types and sizes
have relied on the performance of Industrial Fluid Systems convoluted hose
for may years.

- The unique
construction of tape wrapped convoluted hose combines the properties of
Teflon® with lighter weight and greater flexibility than any hose of
comparable size. As with medium pressure smooth bore, tape wrapped
convoluted is manufactured with both conductive and non-conductive innercore
depending on the demands of the application. Some applications require a
conductive inner liner to dissipate static electrical charges. High
resistive fluids or gases at high velocity cause positive electrical charges
to build on the inside of the PTFE liner. If not dissipated to the end of
the hose, the charge will build until it arcs through the tube wall to the
braid, causing catastrophic hose failure. To alleviate this, Kongsberg
Automotive
manufactures a PTFE innercore with a thin conductive liner on the I.D.

- Other braid materials
such as polyester, polypropylene, nylon and kynar are available for special
applications.

PTFE lined, fiberglass reinforced innercore, overbraided with 300 series
stainless steel.
T1569 - conductive (carbon impregnated), PTFE lined, fiberglass reinforced
innercore, overbraided with 300 series stainless steel.
