FoodForce C

Teflon hose of corrugated PTFE with stainless steel braid.

Application:

Universal hose suitable for transporting food and pharmaceutical products. Developed especially for transporting liquids, where great demands are made on temperature, pressure, or chemical influence.

Construction:

The hose is made internally from a corrugated PTFE hose and externally protected with stainless steel braid AISI 304 (also available in 316). The hose has good mechanical properties and is suitable for high-temperature applications up to +260°C or down to -73°C without loss of mechanical properties. The hose has a high tensile strength, is non-toxic, and food safe.

• Good lubricity and anti-adhesive properties
• Excellent chemical resistance
• Good electrical discharge
• Wear, UV, and weather-resistant

Temperature:

The temperature ranges from -73°C to +260°C.
The hose can be autoclaved.

Safety factor:

Safety factor: ≥ 3 times working pressure.

Pressure: 

All pressures are stated at the temperature +20°C.

FoodForce C operates effectively within a temperature range that extends from -73°C to +260°C. This operating range is affected by the materials used for fittings. The WPD values vary with temperature changes as shown in the table (see image).

Example: If the working pressure is specified as 40 bar at +20°C, then the working pressure at +220°C will be 4 bar.
