Ultraflex Makes Excellent Vent Tubing…
Did You Know?
“UltraFlexible” Convoluted PTFE Vent Tubing
The exceptionally tight bend radius and low force required to deflect this flexible tubing
make it the product of choice for chemical cent lines, vapor recovery ducting, gravity fed
drains and industrial vacuum applications. Manufactured from either virgin FDA approved
PTFE for high purity applications or carbon filled PTFE where static dissipation is required.
The open pitched helical convolutions allow for easy draining and cleaning. Custom
fabricated factory assemblies are available with cuffed ends, Flare-Thru ends or crimped on
fittings.
Cleanable – Non-stick, low porosity tube does not trap bacteria, and can be readily cleaned
with steam, detergents, caustics or solvents.
Compatible – Will not contaminate or impart a taste, color or odor to any media.
Sanitary – FDA approved materials meet or exceed 3A requirements; USP Class VI approved.
Flexible – Does not fatigue or stress corrode like metal hose.
Durable – Designed for extended use in hostile environments involving severe chemical,
thermal and mechanical stresses. Does not suffer aging or embrittlement, even with
extreme thermal cycling.

UltraFlex "Stripy" Hose has Many Advantages
UltraFlex "Stripy" Hose was developed specifically for those applications that require static
dissipation but where there are concerns that the carbon black may contaminate the process
fluid. Extruded simultaneously two thin strips of anti-static PTFE are embedded in the virgin
PTFE convoluted tube, thus reducing the fluids contact with the carbon black by as much as
90%. These anti-static stripes prevent an electrical charge building up while transferring
certain fluids.

UltraFlex "Stripy" Hose is available with 316 SS braid, polypropylene braid or bare tube for
vent lines and sizes range from ½” ID to 3”. PureFlex factory built assemblies have over 40
different end fitting configurations to meet all your needs.
PureFlex Offers Valve Automation Options
Automated valve options are available for PureFlex Butterfly and Ball Valves
A number of configurations are offered to meet the various applications
where automation may be required.

With this program, the unique PureFlex serial number that is permanently marked on the
hose assembly is broken down into its components. From our web site you select the test
report number or hose lot number of those components to get copies of the actual material
test reports PureFlex receives from its raw material suppliers.
Further PureFlex records when the CL2 hose assembly is shipped. PureFlex then notifies its
customers when the assembly should be inspected and/or replaced.
PureFlex is dedicated to the safe and reliable handling one of the industries deadliest
chemicals – CHLORINE.

PureFlex Offers Braid Reinforcement Options
PureFlex convoluted PTFE hoses can be reinforced with two types of braid reinforcement.
Both stainless steel and polypropylene help protect the tube from external damage, increase
working pressures and offer a measure of kink protection. Both are suitable for most
industrial applications but do offer different features and benefits the end user should be
aware of.
Stainless Steel Braid Offers:
Higher working pressures per size (see attached specification sheet)
Higher maximum useable temperature (450°F vs 250°F)
Better abrasion resistance
Good chemical compatibility
Can be used outside in direct exposure to sunlight
Polypropylene Braid Offers:
User friendly, polypropylene when frayed will not cut the operators hand
Will not puncture convoluted PTFE liner
With virgin PTFE tube the final assembly is electrical isolating
Is compatible with fluids that will attack stainless steel (HCL & salt water)
