Platinum Cured Silicone Hose Adds Safety to Hose Handling


Fort Worth, March 28, 2008 - Platinum Cured Silicone Hoses from Parker PAGE offers a seamless, flexible convoluted or smoothbore hose with an additional extruded silicone layer over the hose. The silicone layer protects the braided hose from contaminants and ensures safer operating handling due to contained braid fray and insulation from heat. Also, the Platinum Cured Silicone Hoses are autoclavable and the seamless Silicone allows for easy cleaning.

Platinum Cured Silicone Hoses have an operating temperature up to 450ºF/232ºC and are available with a smoothbore or convoluted core in sizes ranging from 1/4" I.D. up to 2" I.D. They also use a single piece crimp collar, allowing for full working pressure potential and silicone weather seal.
