Wire Reinforced Tubing Series 22X

Wire-reinforced tubing (specifically PVC steel wire-reinforced hoses) offers high-strength, flexible tubing designed for suction, discharge, and vacuum applications. It features a helical steel wire core, typically providing excellent crush/kink resistance, a clear view of product flow, and a smooth interior to prevent material buildup.

Key Features & Benefits

• Structure: Composed of flexible polyvinyl chloride (PVC) with an embedded steel wire coil for reinforcement.
• Performance: Highly kink-resistant and designed to handle full vacuum and high pressure.
• Visibility: Often clear, allowing for internal inspection of transported materials.
• Compliance: Many models are FDA, 3A, or NSF compliant for food and beverage, and RoHS compliant.
• Temperature Range: Generally operates between -40°F and 140°F (-40°C to +60°C).

Common Applications

• Industrial/Agricultural: Transferring liquids, powders, and slurries; suction and discharge for sand.
• Food & Beverage: Transfer of food products, water, and coolants.
• Pneumatic/Vacuum: Used in laboratory and factory settings. Technical Specifications (Example)
• Sizes: Typically available from 1-1/8" to 1-1/2" inside diameter.
• Pressure Rating: Varies; small-diameter tubing can handle up to 100 PSI (6.9 bar) or higher, while larger, heavy-duty hoses can exceed 1000+ PSI.
• Bend Radius: Small bend radius for enhanced flexibility in tight spaces.
