Details
PTFE Convoluted Hose is intended for industrial applications that require a flexible PTFE hose construction and a routed connection between equipment or piping. The conveyed media, concentration, temperature, pressure, movement, end fittings and installation conditions must be reviewed before selection.
PTFE Convoluted Hose Overview
The convoluted hose structure is considered where routing flexibility is required. Selection must be based on the complete assembly, including the PTFE hose, braid where applicable, fittings, seals, connection method and installation route.
Typical Industrial Applications
The existing product information lists the following application areas:
- Chemical transfer lines
- Industrial gas filling lines
- Marine hydraulic steering and engine-compartment fluid lines
- Offshore oil transfer lines for well gases and fluids
- Paper-industry steam and transfer lines for solvents, pigments and bleaching processes
- Steam lines for tyre presses
- Automotive brake, turbo feed and drain, and compressor-discharge lines
- Food and beverage applications
These examples do not confirm universal suitability or regulatory compliance. The actual fluid, process, cleaning method and complete hose assembly must be verified for every application.
Information Needed for Hose Selection
- Media name, composition and concentration
- Operating and design temperature
- Operating and design pressure, including surge or vacuum conditions
- Required hose size, overall length and routing
- End-connection type, size, material and standard
- Static or dynamic movement, vibration and bend-radius requirements
- Cleaning, hygiene, traceability, testing and documentation requirements
Installation and Service Considerations
- Avoid twisting the hose during installation
- Maintain the approved bend radius for the selected hose construction
- Provide support so the assembly is not carrying unintended loads
- Protect the hose from abrasion, impact and unsuitable routing
- Inspect the complete assembly according to the site’s maintenance and safety procedures

Frequently Asked Questions
Is PTFE Convoluted Hose suitable for every chemical?
No. Compatibility depends on the exact media, concentration, temperature, pressure and all materials used in the hose assembly, including fittings and seals.
How is a convoluted PTFE hose selected?
Selection requires the service conditions, hose routing, required movement, connection details and any testing or documentation requirements. A general application list is not sufficient.
Can Advtech review a custom hose assembly?
Advtech can review the supplied drawing, sample or connection specification and assess suitable hose-assembly options for the stated service.
