OverviewVersilon® BCP is a convoluted fluoropolymer hose with an electrostatic-dissipating conductive PTFE liner designed for safe transfer of caustic solvents, steam and other media that generate static. The hose features a low-profile convolution inner core and a high-grade polypropylene braid reinforcement to provide excellent flexibility, low weight and strong abrasion and chemical resistance for industrial transfer operations.
Key features- Electrostatic-dissipating conductive PTFE liner
