Powder hose Imavac®

siliconehigh-pressuretransfer

Product overview
Imavac® is a platinum-cured silicone hose reinforced with SS 316L helical wire, designed for material transfer under high vacuum conditions in pharmaceutical, food and biotech environments. The transparent construction enables visual flow inspection while the helical reinforcement provides kink resistance and vacuum integrity.
