1'' BLUETHUNDER UHMWPE

Parker's Series 7373T Blue Thunder UHMWPE Corrugated Chemical Suction Hose provides excellent service across a wide variety of chemical media in high pressure and high temperature applications. The hose will not contaminate the product being conveyed, and is crush resistant, durable, flexible and easy to handle. The distinctive blue cover is easily identified and resists abrasion, chemicals and weathering for maximum performance. Series 7373T is qualified with permanent crimp couplings for a safe and secure connection and provides robust service in challenging applications. Markets: - General Industrial - Oil & Gas - Transportation Features/Benefits: - Tube: Translucent ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene UHMWPE for chemical resistance to 180 DegF. - Reinforcement: Multiple textile plies for strength and durability, and a dual wire helix for full suction capability and a path to conduct a static charge to ground. - Cover: Blue EPDM for abrasion and chemical resistance. - Couplings: Qualified with steel crimp couplings for a durable, safe and secure connection. Applications: - Acids - Chemicals - Solvents - Bulk depots/terminals - Delivery - In-plant transfer - Storage tank transfer - Oilfield - Refineries - Transport Safety/Technical: - Selection of a hose for any chemical application is a challenging and complex process. Media temperature is a crucial aspect of the selection procedure. Being unaware of, misunderstanding or overlooking this issue may lead to an incorrect/inaccurate hose selection and misapplication. - The data tables published in the Parker Industrial Hose Chemical Guides are based on tests and believed to be reliable - but the data should be used ONLY as a guide. The compatibility ratings for rubber/non-PVC materials apply to media at 70 DegF 21 DegC. However, chemicals may become increasingly aggressive as their temperatures progress above that level. Chemicals at elevated temperatures may reach or exceed the performance capacity of a hose, even if that hose rating exceeds 70 DegF 21 DegC. - Contact us for chemical compatibility data at elevated temperatures. If no data exists, it is the user's responsibility to determine hose/chemical/temperature compatibility. All critical applications should be tested.
