High-pressure hoses handle rough treatmant

An Icore International product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Nov 14, 2006

Parker Stratoflex 191 PTFE high-pressure hose offers four times the abrasion resistance of comparable polyester covered hoses.

Supplied in the UK by Icore International, the latest Parker Stratoflex 191 PTFE high-pressure hose from Parker Hannifin Corporation, Stratoflex Products Division, offers four times the abrasion resistance of comparable polyester covered hoses, making it an ideal choice for use in the hydraulic systems for aircraft landing gear, and other similarly demanding aerospace applications.

This innovative hose, which is offered by Icore in the form of complete assemblies fabricated to the user's specification, features a four-layer construction.

The inner tube is extruded conductive PTFE which minimises triboelectric effects, and which is reinforced with a high-density braid of corrosion-resistant steel wire.

Corrosion resistance is further enhanced by a PTFE barrier layer, and an integral braided Cordura outer cover provides the hose's exceptional abrasion resistance.

Parker Stratoflex 191 PTFE hose assemblies from Icore are available with tube sizes from 0.25 to 0.75in, and a 1.0in version will be added to the range in the near future.

All sizes have a working pressure rating of 208bar, and all are tested at twice the rated working pressure.

Hose in the Parker Stratoflex 191 range meets or exceeds all requirements of the AS1339 (formerly MIL-H-38360) specification, except those relating to temperature.

It has an operating temperature range of -53 to +135C, with brief excursions to +148C.
