What Are the Temperature and Pressure Limits of Flexible PTFE Fluid Hose?

Passion for perfection, Attention to Detail, and Commitment to Quality are the driving forces behind PASSIONHOSE. Our flexible PTFE fluid hoses are designed to meet the highest standards in performance, durability, and safety.

Understanding Flexible PTFE Fluid Hoses

Flexible PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) fluid hoses are highly valued for their exceptional chemical resistance, low friction coefficient, and resistance to extreme temperatures. They are widely used in a variety of industries, including chemical processing, automotive, and manufacturing.

PTFE hoses are known for their flexibility, which allows them to bend and twist without compromising their integrity. They are resistant to many common chemicals and solvents, making them ideal for transporting a wide range of fluids.

Temperature Limits

Maximum Temperature Rating

The maximum operating temperature of flexible PTFE fluid hoses is a critical specification that determines their suitability for different applications. For PASSIONHOSE PTFE fluid hoses, the maximum temperature rating is:

• Maximum Operating Temperature: 200C (392F)

Factors Affecting Temperature Limits:- Ambient temperature during operation
- Exposure to direct sunlight or radiant heat
- Duration of exposure to high temperatures

Pressure Limits

Working Pressure vs Burst Pressure

Understanding the difference between working pressure and burst pressure is essential for safe and efficient operation. For PASSIONHOSE PTFE fluid hoses, the pressure ratings are:

• Working Pressure: 70 bar (1015 psi)
• Burst Pressure: 210 bar (3045 psi)

Factors Affecting Pressure Limits:- Material thickness and reinforcement
- Type of fluid being transported
- Diameter of the hose
