FX series all-metal high-pressure flexible hose provides corrosion-resistance in high-temperature, vacuum, and high-pressure corrosive environments.
Ask Us About Hose SelectionFX series hose is a convoluted 316L core stainless steel high pressure braided hose with a double braid outer layer of 321 stainless steel promoting hose pressure containment. A convoluted core allows for flexibility and limits kinking in this metal braided hose. It is commonly used in high-temperature vacuum and high-pressure corrosive environments or where permeation is undesirable.
