Kongsberg Automotives patented Fluoro-comp+® hose is a non-metallic reinforced PTFE hose for applications which require extreme temperature capabilities and extreme burn-through-resistance and gives you the market leading performance and properties of a PTFE hose but with the ease of forming and routing of a Nylon or rubber hose. This hose is achieving a greater than 60 minutes performance in DIN 73379-3 Flame test.
- Applications:
Applications that require best in class safety and superior flame through resistance under demanding conditions.
- Design:
Smoothbore PTFE tube with integral PTFE impregnated glassfibre braid
- Inner layer construction:
Smoothbore PTFE tube, conductive.
- Outer Layer construction:
Double-braided-layer of bonded, non-metallic, PTFE-impregnated.
- Temperature range:
-40°C to +260°C (-40°F to +500°F).
- Material:
PTFE according to “ISO12086, Part1. PTFE-E.P.D.M 1.61.C.E.4_12”
- Other:
Forming of the patented Fluoro-comp® hose is done by Kongsberg Automotive to customer specifications.
Fluoro-comp+® has a double layer of reinforcement consisting 90% fiber glass with 10% aramid fiber. This double layer of braid, provides enhanced thermal insulation and improved burn-through-resistance compared to our standard Fluorocomp-product. It also provides improved robustness, abrasion resistance and cut resistance while maintaining same preform-radius and routing-capability.
