Conveyants List for Composite Polypropylene Hoses

The following list shows the suitability of the Transflex Hose range of polypropylene hoses of use with various conveyants.

The information given is based on the best data available. However it must be appreciated that the recommendations are given only as a guide and apply only to the chemical compatibility of the hoses. The description of a hose as ‘suitable’ does not constitute a guarantee that the hose complies with any regulations or operating conditions governing the handling of the chemical of the use of the hose. A hose conveying a chemical having an oxidizing effect should be checked for internal discolouration, particularly if the hose may subsequently be used on a conveyant where colour contamination is not permissible.
