PF™ Series
Heavy-Duty Food Grade, Polyurethane, Material Handling Hose with Grounding Wire
GENERAL APPLICATIONS
- Food grade material handling - heavy duty abrasive
- Pharmaceutical product transfer
- Plastic processing equipment
- Pneumatic conveying equipment
CONSTRUCTION
Polyurethane tube with rigid PVC helix and grounding wire
SERVICE TEMPERATURE RANGE
-40°F (-40°C) to +150°F (+65°C)*
*Actual service temperature range is application dependent.
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES
- Extra Thick Single-Ply Abrasion Resistant Polyurethane Tube – Our thickest single-ply polyurethane tube! Designed for dry applications where severe abrasion is a factor. Provides for longer hose life and lower operating costs versus rubber or PVC hoses.
- 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.
- “Cold-Flex” Materials – Hose remains flexible in sub-zero temperatures.
- Easy Slide Helix – Rigid helix design protects hose tube from cover wear, and allows hose to slide easily over rough surfaces. Easy-to-handle.
- Oil Resistant Polyurethane Tube – Resists most animal and petroleum based oils.

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.
