A two-ply black Teflon® fabric hose with a silver heat-resistant fiberglass liner for the extraction of harsh chemical fumes such as acetone and methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) is being introduced by Flexaust of Warsaw, Indiana. Flex-Lok® TCF hose features double-ply construction with a black Teflon coated fabric and a silver heat-resistant fiberglass liner mechanically crimped in a continuous process by a metal strip locked around a coated steel wire. Designed for extracting harsh chemical fumes, this hose offers good fatigue resistance and is highly flexible, while the metal strip acts as an external wear strip, making it ideal for use in reel & drop systems. Available in 3” to 18” I.D. sizes and standard 25 ft. lengths, Flex-Lok TCF hose operates over a -60°F to 600°F range and its sealed exterior helps prevent the escape of hazardous fumes. A suitable replacement for hard pipe, this fume extraction hose can be custom made with up to a 20” I.D. Applications include a wide range of chemical and industrial processes.
