Flattenable tubes

FLATFLEX HOSE 14/10 bar

Description and technical data

Extruded thermoplastic flat tube made of a mixed RUBBER/PVC material specially designed for water transfer under severe wear conditions.

Product Highlights

RELIABLE, LIGHTWEIGHT AND FLEXIBLE
IMPLEMENTATION AND RECOVERY OF QUICK CONNECTORS

The black ribbed cover is standard. Other colors are available upon request.

Applications:
Designed and recommended for water transfer and general pumping operations in irrigation, mining, construction, sewerage, drainage systems, water bypass operations and cable sheathing.

Construction:

Made from 100% high tenacity synthetic yarn circularly woven, fully protected and secured by a tough, highly durable blend of synthetic nitrile rubber and PVC extruded through the weft and forming a single homogeneous construction without the use of glues or adhesives.

Coating properties:

A. Maximum tensile strength of the coating: guaranteed minimum value of 1,500 psi (10,500 kPa).
B. Final elongation: minimum 400%.
C. Accelerated aging test:
The tensile strength and ultimate elongation of the vulcanized rubber compound were tested with oxygen at a pressure of 300 psi +/- 10 psi (2100 kPa +/- 70 kPa) and a temperature of 70 degrees Celsius +/- 1 degree (158 ºF +/- 18 ºF) for a period of 96 hours, after which the rubber properties are at least 60% of the original values.

Abrasion resistance
It will extend the life of your application in extreme conditions where abrasion is the primary concern. Abrasion resistance > 2000 cycles.

Serving temperature range:
From -30ºC to 80ºC. Special versions for higher and lower temperatures available on request.

Ozone resistance:
No visible signs of cracking appear on the coating or covering when tested in accordance with ASTM D518 Procedure B, 100pphm/104ºF (40ºC).

Chemical resistance:
Exposure to seawater and contamination by most chemicals, hydrocarbons, oils, and greases has no effect on the short- or long-term performance of the hose. A chemical resistance chart is available, and TIPSA will provide specific chemical resistance data upon request by the purchaser for specific applications.

Lengths: Standard 100m. Special lengths up to 200m.

Bindings: Camlock, Bauer, Perrot, Victaulic, Storz.
