GTFE™ Series

Food Grade, PVC, Ducting/Material Handling Hose with Grounding Wire

GENERAL APPLICATIONS

  • Ducting, ventilation and fume removal
  • Food grade blower and ducting systems
  • Material handling – light duty
  • Pharmaceutical product transfer

CONSTRUCTION

PVC tube with rigid PVC helix

SERVICE TEMPERATURE RANGE

-40°F (-40°C) to +150°F (+65°C)*
*Actual service temperature range is application dependent.

FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES

  • Food Grade Materials – Hose complies with applicable FDA(03) and 3-A(01) requirements. Hose complies with applicable USDA(12) requirements.
  • Grounding Wire – Multi-strand wire helps prevent the build-up of static electricity for added safety and to help keep material flowing smoothly. It’s embedded within the rigid helix to prevent contamination of transferred materials.
  • Transparent Construction – “See-the-flow.” Allows for visual confirmation of material flow.
  • Easy Slide Helix – Exposed rigid helix design protects hose tube from cover wear, and allows hose to slide easily over rough surfaces. Easy-to-handle.

NOTES:
• Service life may vary depending on operating conditions and type of material being conveyed.

CAUTION: Grounding wire is designed to help dissipate static charge when extracted and connected to ground. Hose is not to be used in combustible situations unless it has been determined by the end user the application if not sufficient to result in propagating brush discharge.
