Swagelok® PTFE Core Hose Smooth Bore, X-Series
X series is a highly flexible PTFE smooth-bore core hose that is commonly used where flexibility and chemical compatibility are desired.
Request More InformationX series is a highly flexible PTFE smooth-bore core hose with a 304 stainless steel braid promoting hose pressure containment. This hose is commonly used where flexibility and chemical compatibility are desired.
A size of range of 1/4 to 1 inch, working pressures from vacuum to 3500 psig (240 bar), and a variety of end connections allow the X series hose to meet the needs of a range of systems. The fiber braid is bonded to the core with a patent-pending process supports core to resist kinking. An optional carbon black-filled PTFE core is available for applications that require static dissipation. Custom assemblies are available with other options including hose covers and tags.
Every X series hose assembly is pressure tested with water at room temperature for 30 seconds to a requirement of no detectable leakage. Testing is performed at 1000 psig (69 bar), or 225 psig (15.5 bar) if an end connection is rated below 1000 psig (69 bar).
