Parker Rubber Covered Hose May Last up to 24 Months Longer in Your Application


FORT WORTH, TX  - Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, offers USP Class VI certified RCTW (Rubber Covered Fluoropolymer Hose) to transfer materials without contaminating the integrity of the product. For end users, especially in the food industry, purity, taste, smell, color and extractables are critical characteristics. With a USP Class VI certified hose, assurance of purity is absolute.



Parker RCTW hoses are especially suited for steam applications too. Typically, steam eventually permeates the core tube, and once in the wall of the hose, will break down the flexibility and delaminate the hose. Parker has addressed this concern and builds a Parker rubber hose with a proprietary core tube design. In some applications, Parker hoses have run 2 to 3 years longer than competitive hoses and were only changed out due to scheduled maintenance, not because of failure.



Parker RCTW Hoses are extremely flexible, easy to clean and handle temperatures up to 300ºF/149ºC Sizes range from 1/2” I.D. up to 4” I.D and are available from the PAGE International Hose business unit of the Parflex division. Rubber covered hose will be on display at Pack Expo in Chicago, Sept 15 – 18, Parker Booth 6834.



With annual sales of $13 billion in fiscal year 2014, Parker Hannifin is the world’s leading diversified manufacturer of motion and control technologies and systems, providing precision-engineered solutions for a wide variety of mobile, industrial and aerospace markets. The company employs approximately 57,500 people in 50 countries around the world.
