Coreflex™ Series U-COR hose offers flexibility, yet resists kinking. A smooth-bore PFA core supplies a chemically-inert, non-aging, nonstick surface for use in sanitary applications. The hose is nonabsorbent and will not impart taste or odor, is easy to clean, and features ultralow extractibles. The hose can be autoclaved and sterilized in accordance with system cleaning requirements.

The PFA core tube is reinforced with a silicone layer bonded directly to the core and braid layer, using a process that removes the need for glues and avoids leachables. The braid layer is a 300 series stainless steel braid. Protecting the entire construction is a non-contaminating silicone cover. Temperature rating is -65 to 450°F (-53 to 230°C).
