Data quoted if for medium pressure single braided hoses please contact our offices for higher pressure applications.

Apply Pressure derating at elevated and sub zero temperatures, for more details please contact our offices.

Plesae note that the pressures listed above are for the hose element of the assembly only and that the choice of end connection may reduce the overall working pressure of the assembly as a whole.

 

Tapflo stainless steel metal hose assemblies are very flexible annularly corrugated low to high pressure hoses which can be used to convey all manner of liquids and gases.
