Parker PCW and PCB Convoluted PTFE hoses with a polypropylene braid are seamless, low profiled, convolutions that withstand extreme flexing for fluid handling in chemical transfer, food and beverage, paint and pharmaceutical applications. These non-metallic reinforced hoses offer remarkable corrosion resistance and high temperature tolerance for added protection under various operating conditions. Similar to the SCW/SCB hoses (Stainless Steel Braided Convoluted Hose), the PCW and PCB are available in convoluted assemblies in either a natural FDA compliant PTFE tube or a black static-dissipative PTFE tube. Since the braid is a thermoplastic, rather than metallic, the burn risk associated with operators working around this product is much lower.

PCW/PCB hoses are 20% lighter than traditional stainless steel braided hoses and are much more flexible, making it easier for them to route through tight spaces.In addition, PCW/PCB will not conduct electricity and can handle many of the chemicals that can attack and damage stainless steel, making them the perfect solution for various applications. If end-to-end continuity is required, an optional static wire can be added for this feature. For more information, refer to the literature on the Product Support tab.
