SANITARY HOSE ASSEMBLIESEach sanitary hose assembly uses 316L stainless steel fittings radially crimpedonto the hose to prevent any contamination between the hose barb and the hoseI.D., to assure a smooth flow through the hose and fitting with minimal pressuredrop and to ensure safety by preventing fitting blow-off when hose is operatedwithin design specifications.ADVANTAGES· Total leak-proof seal between hose and fitting even at extreme pressure andtemperature. This design prevents product entrapment when pressure is released.· Three-way interlocking seal:1. Crimp ferrule is compression crimped into the hose cover.2. Serrations of barb ‘bite’ into the innercore tube.3. Ferrule and hose insert are totally locked together during crimp.· Sanitary fitting design features ultra-smooth internal surface finishes exceedingPharmacopoeia Class VI, FDA, USDA and 3A minimum standards. These designsalso incorporate an internal radius chamfer promoting a smooth flow betweenhose and fitting, minimizing chances of bacteria entrapment.· Fully sealed fitting design protects against wicking or exposure to chemicals orcleaning materials that might swell or deteriorate interior hose reinforcement orcover.· Smooth exterior - no clamps or bolts to catch on surrounding surfaces or to cutworkers’ hands. No retorquing necessary.· Complete range of 316L stainless steel fittings available from stock.HOSE MANUFACTURERS· Gates· St. Gobain· Coreflex· Kuritec· Sani-Tech· Purefit· Flexible ComponentsAVAILABLE IN:· Teflon· Silicone· Food-Grade Rubber· PVC· Smooth-bore· Convoluted· Stainless Steel Braided19
