Construction – Aerocom EPDM rubber covered PTFE smooth bore hose has been engineered for lasting service in the most demanding applications. Elasto-Chem starts with a smooth, non-stick FDA approved material made of white or black conductive PTFE. Two plies of synthetic rubber reinforced with horizontal fabric braid are permanently bonded to the PTFE tube. A double steel wire helix is included to support the shape in full vacuum service applications and to prevent kinking. This provides a double grounding path for any build up of electrical charge. The entire hose is protected by an abrasion resistant rubber cover that will not fade or discolour with age and is also weather resistant.
