Swagelok® Metal Hose (AH Series)
AH series all-metal hose reduces permeation in high-temperature, vacuum, or highly corrosion-resistant applications where permeation or absorption is undesirable.
Contact a Hose SpecialistThe AH series hoses are constructed with an alloy C-276 annular convoluted core for additional corrosion resistance and a single braid outer layer 316L stainless steel for hose pressure containment. A convoluted core allows for flexibility and limits kinking.

A size range of 1/2 through 2 inches, working pressures from vacuum to 1110 psig (76.4 bar), and a variety of end connections welded in accordance with ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code Section IX allow the AH series hose to meet the needs of a variety of systems. Alloy C-276 braid, end connections, and custom assemblies are available with other options including hose covers, metal hose tags, and additional helium leak testing.
