Teflex NP Black | BFM® Fitting
Superior to traditional hose clamped canvas/cloth/rubber connectors
Teflex NP is a pure PTFE (black) food-grade connector.
Use Teflex NP in applications consistently running at extreme temperatures. It can continuously operate at 300ºC / 572ºF with short-term surges to 316ºC / 600ºF. Also remains highly flexible down to -73ºC (-99ºF).
Also, use Teflex NP to convey products across the full pH scale. Caustic and acid products will not affect PTFE.
Teflex NP is also designed to dissipate electrical charge.
Food Grade - compliant with FDA & EU regulations.
