Bulk material hose Imavac-C™

siliconestainless steelindustrial

Product overview
Imavac-C™ is an inner smooth bore and outer convoluted platinum-cured silicone hose reinforced with SS 316L helical wire. It offers light weight, improved transparency to visualize flow, and increased kink resistance. Designed for material transfer applications under high vacuum in the pharmaceutical industry, Imavac-C™ provides superior kink resistance and higher vacuum rating compared to Imavac™ and is also used for antistatic applications.

Applications
