Kuri Tec
K6163 Series
Heavy Duty, High Purity PVC Potable Water Bypass Hose
GENERAL APPLICATIONS
- Temporary surface bypass potable water lines for municipal construction sites
- Transfer of potable water
- Water purification systems
- Water sampling
CONSTRUCTION
- Tube – Pure white Phthalate Free PVC compound
- Reinforcement – High tensile strength yarn, with longitudinal yarns to prevent elongation under pressure
- Cover – Blue high quality Phthalate Free PVC compound, uniquely blended to provide excellent abrasion- and weather-resistance . . . blue color signifies pure water line
COMPLIANCE INFORMATION
In compliance with applicable FDA(03) requirements, NSF(11) certified, and meets RoHS(15)
SERVICE TEMPERATURE RANGE
-10°F (-23°C) to +150°F (+65°C)
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES
- NSF 51 Certified Hose – Hose certified by NSF for use in food equipment applications.**
- NSF 61 Certified Hose – Hose certified by NSF for use as a drinking water system component.**
- 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.
- UV and Weather Resistant – Opaque cover resists damage from UV light and weather aging.
- Algae Growth Resistant – Opaque materials reduces potential for algae growth in warm, sunny environments.
- Low Extraction Tube – Extremely low hydrocarbon extraction into water, falls well below the EPA’s maximum contaminant levels for drinking water safety.
- Abrasion Resistant PVC – Durable PVC hold up better than rubber air hoses when dragged.
- Cold Flex Materials – Remains flexible and easy to handle in sub-zero temperatures.
- Lightweight – Lighter weight than rubber hoses, reduces worker fatigue.
- Non-Marking Cover – Can be dragged over flooring without leaving marks typical of rubber hoses.

NOTES:
† Working Pressure decreases as temperature increases. Pressure ratings can only be obtained with proper coupling procedures.
• Use of compression fittings with Kuri Tec® yarn-reinforced hose is not recommended. Claims involving use of these fittings will be disallowed.
• Series K6136 is sold in Canada under the Pureflex® name.
