Kuri Tec
Clearbraid Oil
K3550 Series
Oil Resistant Food Grade PVC Hose
GENERAL APPLICATIONS
- Transfer of oily food products such as olive, sunflower, soybean and peanut oils
- Transfer of petroleum based oils
CONSTRUCTION
- Tube – Transparent oil resistant phthalate free PVC
- Reinforcement – Reinforced with spiraled polyester yarn
- Cover – Transparent oil resistant phthalate free PVC
COMPLIANCE INFORMATION
In compliance with applicable FDA(03) and Phthalate Free(13) requirements, NSF(11) certified and meets RoHS(14) criteria
SERVICE TEMPERATURE RANGE
+25°F (-4°C) to +150°F (+65°C)
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES
- High Oil Resistance – Meets ARPM (Association for Rubber Product Manufacturers) Class A rating for high oil resistance. Remains flexible when exposed to oils. Won’t dry out or crack like other PVC tubing.
- NSF 51 Certified Hose – Hose certified by NSF for use in food equipment applications. NSF 51 printed directly on hose for easy inspector field verification.
- Braided and Longitudinal Fabric Reinforcements – High tensile strength, food grade, polyester yarn braid provides higher working pressures. Yarns also run the length of the hose reducing elongation and improving coupling retention.
- Transparent – Allows for visual confirmation of material flow.
- Glass-Smooth Interior – Ensures smooth flow of material and reduces material buildup.

NOTES:
† Working Pressure decreases as temperature increases. Pressure ratings can only be obtained with proper coupling procedures.
• Use of compression fitting with Kuri Tec® yarn-reinforced hose is not recommended. Claims involving use of these fittings will be disallowed.
