Films for the Hose Industry from DeWAL

DeWAL Industries produces a full line of PTFE and UHMW-PE films for industry's most demanding applications. These films are particularly adaptable in many flexible hose applications. Since DeWAL films are resistant to a wide range of chemicals, refrigerants, and solvents, they are an excellent choice for hose linings.

Their close tolerance dimensional quality allows for uniform wrap and adhesion. Should abrasive fluids cause concern, UHMW linings resist most erosive materials such as paints and powders. Their FDA compliance, resistance to steam sterilization, and near odor-free quality allow for use in food, beverage, and pharmaceutical applications. All materials can be treated for bonding to most substrates and UHMW-PE readily bonds without adhesives to non-polar rubbers.

When considering hose outer coverings, the abrasion resistance and low friction features of DeWAL films promote extremely low wear and extended hose life. The optional static-dissipation feature provides safe, spark-free operation whenever static discharge is of concern. Outstanding resistance to chemical attack and solvent penetration also protects hose quality and longevity. The superior dimensional uniformity of DeWAL films promotes flawless wrapping and bonding.
