Metallic Hose Assemblies - Thorburn Flex Inc

Teflon Lined HoseThe drawback found in using large diameter smooth tubeTeflon lined stainless steel braided hose assemblies wasits inability to stand up to rugged handling. These traditionalassemblies would tend to kink when bent into tightradii and the braid would tend to separate during handling,exposing the operator to potentail dangerous failure.To address this problem, Thorburn developed its TR40which combines the traditional technology of a rubber chemicalpressure hose with the superior properties of teflon.The smooth teflon lined tube is reinforced with a combinationof high tensile calendared synthetic fabric braid andhelical wires which are then shielded with a tough abrasivechemical resistant cover. The hose is then vulcanized andbonded into an integral unit. The end result provides forgreater handling, flexibility and abrasion resistancy.TYPICAL HANDLING TRANSFER APPLICATIONS■■■■■■■Pharmaceutical– parentals, lotions, creams, aluminum chloridePhoto-chemical– ferricyanide bleach, ferric chlorideInks, dyes, glues– Hot melt adhesivesSolvents– from acetone to xylenePlating chemicals– Sodium cyanide, pickling liquorsCleaners– Alkali solvents, perchlorohydrate, trichloroethyleneBlack liquor, spill clean-up, spent caustic acid✓✓✓Full vacuum/500psi smooth boreNon-stick/non-contaminating teflontubePinpricked cover for effusiondissipationService temperratureContinuous: -40°F. to 225°F.Intermittent: -60°F. to 300°F.TR40... the ultimate refinement insmooth bore technology“Mighty Crimp” 316SSHigh pressure coupling technology✓ Greater safety✓ more reliability✓ Higher pressure containmentThorburn TR40 assemblies fitting to end joints are provided through a mighty crimp processwhich features a smooth low profile compression crimp fitting. The teflon innercore, braidreinforcements and outer cover are locked into tthe insert serrations and ferrule grooves,assuring 360° blow-off proof assemblies.Thorburn's Size Size Recom.
