New Anti-Wick Seal Option for Platinum-Cured Silicone Hose
Hose is Braid Reinforced for Added Pressure Capabilities
Southampton, PA - Available from AdvantaPure, the sanitary products division of tubing-and-hose manufacturer NewAge Industries, is flexible braid-reinforced, platinum-cured silicone hose with a new treatment for the hose ends. Called APSH, the hose is now available with anti-wick seals to prevent liquid absorption within the hose walls. This detail can be of critical importance in industries such as pharmaceutical, bioprocess, food and beverage, chemical, and in other clean applications.
The new anti-wick seal option involves molding silicone material to the cut end of a length of hose to seal in the polyester yarn braid and prevent liquid absorption (wicking). It is especially helpful in applications where the hose is used as dip tubing, as it prevents fluids from becoming trapped within the hose walls. Reinforced hose such as APSH is frequently used in dip tubing applications, because flexible unreinforced tubing often cannot withstand any vacuum conditions, however slight.
In addition to its anti-wick seal option, APSH is available with color tracer braid in red, blue, yellow, green, and purple and in a white-color, double-braid style for added durability. AdvantaPure manufactures all variations of APSH in HEPA-filtered clean rooms with key emphasis on cleanliness and validations. The hose is made from low volatile grade, platinum-cured silicone with braided polyester yarn between the hose walls to enhance its pressure and light-duty vacuum capabilities. It has undergone extensive physical, chemical, and biological testing and meets USP Class VI, FDA CFR 177.2600, ISO 10993, European Pharmacopoeia 3.1.9, and 3-A standards and is certified to be free of animal-derived ingredients. The core material of APSH is also NSF 51 listed.
APSH hose is suitable for either fluid or air transfer in a wide range of temperatures: -100°F (-73°C) to 400°F (204°C). It resists compression set, chemical attack, ozone, radiation, moisture, environmental exposure, and imparts no taste or odor to critical streams. It's documented lot traceable with identification on bags and boxes and offers documented quality control as well. APSH may be sterilized by autoclave, SIP, CIP, or gamma radiation.
Twenty-five and fifty foot coils are stocked for same-day shipment. Nominal I.D. sizes range from .063" through 1". Custom options include special coil lengths, sizes, cleaning, and/or packaging, and Nomex® braid.
