Description
*This item is purchased in 1 foot sections*NON-reinforcedLow pressure ONLY
FKM (fluorocarbon rubber) hosing is designed for applications that require excellent resistance to chemicals, high temperatures, and harsh environments. These half inch rubbing tubing is made from fluorocarbon elastomers, which are highly durable and flexible, capable of withstanding a wide range of chemical substances, including acids, alkalis, and various solvents. The material also offers superior resistance to heat, making FKM hosing ideal for use in industries like automotive, aerospace, chemical processing, and oil and gas, where exposure to extreme temperatures and aggressive chemicals is common.
Typically, FKM hosing features a smooth, non-porous surface that prevents buildup and contamination, ensuring long-term performance and reliability. It is also resistant to ozone, weathering, and UV light, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. These hoses are available in various sizes and can be reinforced with additional layers for enhanced pressure tolerance and strength.
