Constructed from a multi-layer nitrile/PVC blend reinforced with a synthetic fiber and galvanized wire helix, these pre-assembled hoses ship with stainless steel Tri-Clover fittings on both ends for reliable liquid transfer. The kink- and crush-resistant build handles demanding transfer setups across a wide working temperature range, and the hose is FDA and USDA approved and compliant with 3A Sanitary Standard 18-03. Resistant to a wide variety of CIP chemicals including acid, caustic, acetic, sulfur, lactic, and phosphoric solutions. The low oxygen transmission rate and large bore make it well-suited to high flow rates and viscous liquids. At least three CIP recirculations on first use are recommended to remove residual manufacturing aromas.
