CLEARFLO clear plastic tubing is generally unaffected by most oxidizing and reducing agents. Diluted acids and alkalies have little effect, though if highly concentrated tend to make the tubing less pliable. If chemical resistance is of major concern, in-plant tests are suggested. In clean applications, CLEARFLO`s smooth surface prevents lodging of bacteria and sediment buildup. It is easily drained and flushed clean with most available cleaning and sanitizing agents. CLEARFLO may be autoclaved at 20 lbs. steam pressure for 15 minutes. Transparent yellow, Fuel & Oil Grade CLEARFLO, was created to extend the working life of PVC tubing in fuel & oil applications. Gasoline and oils harden standard PVC over periods of intermittent use, but CLEARFLO FUEL & OIL is specially formulated to prevent hardening.

Clear NYLOBRADE is made from non-toxic ingredients selected from those sanctioned by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for use in food contact applications. Its NSF certification makes NYLOBRADE a good choice for drinking water applications, those involving water at temperatures up to 60°C (140°F), and food processing applications. NYLOBRADE is generally unaffected by most oxidizing and reducing agents. Diluted acids and alkalies have little effect, though if highly concentrated tend to make the hose less pliable. If chemical resistance is in question, in-plant tests are suggested. Gasoline and oils will harden PVC over periods of intermittent use. In these applications, continuous use will slow the hardening process. NYLOBRADE HP (High Pressure) sizes 3/8` I.D. and up have a tighter braid pattern and, therefore, reduce the visual flow contact and increase the hose`s resistance to bending & flexing. Heavier walls on similar I.D.s will be more resistant to kinking.

Nylobrade Push-On Hose may be used up to 200 psi at 70°F. Elevated temperatures require in-field testing to determine suitability for use without clamps. The opaque black color of Nylobrade Push-On Hose helps hide dirt and scuff marks. Other colors can be manufactured to match machinery and equipment.

NEWFLEX reinforced suction hose is widely used throughout industry in both positive and negative pressure applications. Its advanced design allows the use of light-weight, corrosion-resistant PVC to replace bulkier and heavier ply-wrapped rubber hose. NEWFLEX series `FH` and `FHS` are clear, allowing the user to have full visual flow of material. The Food Grade lines are made from FDA-approved ingredients suitable for food and beverage handling. The smooth interior is easily sterilized and cleaned. Both types have a vacuum rating of 28 in./Hg. NEWFLEX series `VFH` is produced from a clear FDA liner with an industrial grade white helix, which is not exposed to the hose I.D. It can handle light-duty pressure discharge, gravity feed, and moderate vacuum applications.

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 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.

The non-toxic compound used to manufacture CLEAR-40 is non-conductive and has a U.L. rating of 94 VO. Since CLEAR-40 is highly corrosion resistant as well as transparent, it is used extensively in chemical, pharmaceutical, and food plants, as well as laboratories and hospitals, where visual contact with the flow is desired. CLEAR-40 pipe can be used interchangeably with standard schedule 40 gray or white fittings. Assemblies with standard fittings should be permanently glued using primer and solvent cement. Twenty-foot pipe lengths, bell-shaped pipe ends, other fitting configurations, and schedule 80 pipe are available through minimum order -- call for details. CLEAR-40 is neither recommended to be threaded nor recommended for use in applications involving compressed gas. Although the product is completely transparent, it does have a blue tint.
