Every hose is tested in accordance with
NFPA 1961.
Applications: Suitable for use and
recommended for light industry.
Construction: Performs like a rigid reel hose. Continuous high-tenacity polyester woven jacket, with a rigid weft of helical polyester
monofil reinforcement. Lining constructed of lightweight extruded thermoplastic elastomer or EPDM rubber.
The inner liner compound is flexible between - 40°C (-40°F) and +82°C (180°F). ALFLEX is usable up to these temperatures.
The hose resists a hot steel rod at 500°F (260°C) for more than two minutes. Colour: white.
