- Economical
and Cost Effective
UNI-BRAID
high-pressure hose is the most economical high pressure PTFE
hose product ever offered to the market. It combines long
life expectancy, high durability, and proven performance for
superior service and cost effectiveness over the long term.
- Lightweight
Design
When UNI-BRAID
was being designed for use in the aerospace industry, the
most critical challenge faced by Titeflex engineers was to
minimize weight. The hose had to be light and flexible, yet
retain the strength and integrity necessary to withstand severe
performance conditions. The result is an innovative, patented,
single braid wrap that out performs all spiral-wire rubber
hoses, as well as all other high pressure PTFE hoses.
- Greater
Flexibility
In industrial
hose applications where high performance under harsh conditions
is required, Titeflex UNI-BRAID PTFE hose offers solutions
and value. The patented UNI-BRAID® construction features
a single outer layer braid that reduces bulk while maximizing
pressure capability, and provides an exceptionally tight bend
radius.
- Hose
Construction
R160 hose
is made of conductive PTFE using Titeflex "ZS" (Zero
Static) construction, to bleed off static build-up in high
flow applications and eliminate the risk of "static"
burning of the core. The innercore is post-cured to enhance
hose performance in extreme applications. Reinforcement of
combined single plaits of small diameter, tiered, tension
controlled type 304 stainless steel wire make up the braid
jacket. This specially designed outer layer of braid eliminates
conventional spiral wraps, reducing bulk without sacrifice
of pressure capability. In larger sizes (-12 thru -24) there
is an additional braid layer between the PTFE innercore and
the pressure carrying outer braid .
Availability
UNI-BRAID®
can be fitted and tested to your exact specification by Titeflex
or by an authorized Titeflex distributor. Our distributors
are selectively certified to assemble high pressure hose assemblies.
Insist that your Titeflex product is assembled and supplied
by a Titeflex authorized distributor.
