Tigerflex
TVHD™ Series
Tigervapor™ Heavy Duty, Recovery Hose
GENERAL APPLICATIONS
- Tank truck vapor recovery
CONSTRUCTION
Polyurethane (TPU) tube with rigid PVC helix and embedded grounding wire
SERVICE TEMPERATURE RANGE
-40ºF (-40ºC) to +140ºF (+60ºC)*
*Actual service temperature range is application dependent.
FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES
- Lightweight – much lighter than conventional TPR/rubber hoses.
- Heavy duty construction – thicker wall for longer hose life.
- Superior flexibility – especially in sub-zero weather!
- “See-through” construction – for visual confirmation if fuel backs up into the vapor recovery system.
- Grounding Wire – Durable multi-strand copper wire dissipates static electricity. Physically extract wire from the rigid helix and bond to the metal coupling (or by other means) to ground.+
- Easy Slide Helix – Rigid counter clockwise helix design protects hose tube from cover wear; allows hose to slide easily over rough surfaces.
- Biofuel Compatible – Revolutionary polyurethane compound! Specially designed to handle gasoline, ethanol**, diesel and biodiesel** vapors... and still keeps all the other great features and benefits!
- Non-permeable polyurethane construction – won’t swell or become stiff like conventional TPR/rubber hoses. Long life reduces operating costs.
