Reinforced Silicone Hose
Versilon® FPD hose from Saint-Gobain is a platinum-cured silicone hose reinforced with a four-ply polyester braid for excellent durability and flexibility in demanding applications where higher pressures are a consideration. This construction features a slight vacuum rating without a stainless steel wire reinforcement.
Ideal for sanitary applications and manufactured from the highest grades of silicone materials, FPD hose resists temperature extremes, ozone, corona, radiation, moisture, compression sets, weathering, and chemical attack. FPD hose imparts no taste or odors to fluids being transferred, is sterilizable, and withstands repeated autoclaving.
