VARDEX® Clear Steel Wire Reinforced PVC Suction Hose

VARDEX® Clear Steel Wire Reinforced PVC Suction Hose

SKU: 140 Series

Clear Steel Wire Reinforced PVC Suction Hose

 

  • Spiral steel wire reinforcement incorporated within the wall of flexible PVC tubing
  • Made from non-toxic ingredients conforming to FDA standards
  • Kink and crush resistant
  • Handles pressure and full vacuum (29.9 in./Hg.) applications
  • Glass-like clarity with mirror-smooth surfaces provide outstanding visual flow characteristics
  • Lightweight (compared to rubber hose) yet tough and abrasion-resistant

 

APPLICATIONS:

Chemical Transfer • Conduit • Coolant Lines • Environmental Suit Air Feed • Floor Cleaning Equipment • Food & Beverage Lines • Material Handling • Shop Air Supply • Spray Systems • Vacuum Lines • Water Feeds

 

Notes:

  • VARDEX, with its steel wire reinforcement coil, is specially suited for applications where resistance to kinking is of primary importance. A proprietary construction technique employed during the manufacture of VARDEX permits full vacuum capabilities (29.9 in./Hg.) for all sizes without hose collapse.
  • Constructed of clear, corrosion-resistant PVC, VARDEX can be used to transport various chemicals in areas with tight turns and sharp bends. Its bend radius is approximately four times the I.D.
  • For easy identification, VARDEX is imprinted with the trademarked name.
