Features
Stainless steel end connections are available in 1/8 to
1 1/2 in. and 6 to 25 mm sizes. Select end connections are

available in other alloys; contact your authorized Swagelok
sales and service representative.
PTFE material complies with FDA regulation 21CFR Part
177.1550 for contact with water, food, and beverages.

PTFE is a nonconductive material. In applications that
require conductivity to help prevent static-electric discharge,

PTFE-lined hose with carbon black-filled core tube (TC
series) is available.
Lightweight construction allows easy handling and
installation.
PTFE-lined hose with alloy 400/R-405 end connections and
Standard and custom lengths are available.
overbraid (TL4 series) is available. The pressure rating is

1500 psig (103 bar) at 70F (20C).

Pressure-Temperature Ratings
Pressure-Temperature Rating Factors
Testing
To determine pressure-temperature
ratings at elevated temperatures, follow
these steps:
Ratings maintain a minimum factor of

4:1 between working pressure and
minimum burst pressure.
Every Swagelok PTFE-lined hose

assembly is pressure tested with water
for 30 to 60 seconds at 1.5 times the
working pressure to a requirement of no
visible leakage at ambient temperature.
1. Find the working pressure at 70F

(20C) in the Technical Data table
above.
2. Multiply this by the appropriate factor
listed in the Pressure-Temperature
Rating Factors table.
Example: 3/16 in. TH series hose at
300F (148C)
1. The working pressure rating at 70F
(20C) is 3000 psig (206 bar).
2. The temperature factor for 300F
(148C) is 0.52:
3000 (206) 0.52 = 1560 psig
(107 bar).
The 3/16 in. TH series hose pressure
rating at 300F (148C) is 1560 psig
(107 bar).

Cleaning and Packaging

Swagelok PTFE-lined, stainless steel
braided hose components are cleaned in
accordance with Swagelok standard
cleaning and packaging specification
(SC-10). Each hose is bagged individually
and boxed; longer hoses are coiled,
bagged, and boxed.
Additional Considerations
PTFE is a permeable material. Gases,
vapors, and liquids can migrate
through the PTFE core tube. The rate
of permeation is affected by many
application-specific variables.

flexible hose assembly is inboard helium
leak tested to a maximum leak rate of
1 105 std cm3/s.

Example: 1/4 in. hose at 500F (260C)
(20C) is 3100 psig (213 bar).

Swagelok FM series metal flexible hose
components are cleaned in accordance
with Swagelok standard cleaning and
packaging specification (SC-10). Each
hose is bagged individually and boxed;
longer hoses are coiled, bagged, and
boxed or crated.
The 1/4 in. hose pressure rating at

500F (260C) is 2015 psig (138 bar).
DO NOT SUBJECT METAL FLEXIBLE HOSE TO SYSTEM PRESSURE

SURGES, SHOCK, OR PULSATIONS GREATER THAN 50 % OF THE

Multipurpose Push-On Hose Assembly
Ensure hose is pushed

fully into finishing cap.
1. Cut a clean, square edge

on end of hose.
2. Cover first barb of end

connection with hose.
(Lubricating fitting stem
with light oil [10W40] may
ease assembly.)
3. Hold end connection

against flat surface. Grip
hose and push with a
steady force until hose
seats into blue finishing
cap.
Do not use a hose

clamp.
Multipurpose Push-On Hose Disassembly

1. Slit hose lengthwise from
blue finishing cap to end
of barb. Do not damage
barbs.
2. Bend hose to expose

barbs, then remove hose
with a quick pull.
Do not reuse hose.

Assembly and disassembly illustrated
with old-style, round-body Swagelok
tube adapter end connections.

Swagelok thermoplastic hose components are cleaned in
accordance with Swagelok standard cleaning and packaging
specification (SC-10). Each hose is bagged individually and
boxed; longer hoses are coiled, bagged, and boxed.
Caution:
Nonconductive hoses can be conduits for electricity if
they contain conductive fluids. Verify fluid conductive
properties prior to use.
Nonperforated covers may blister in gas service.
User must evaluate compatibility in systems
containing heated, water-based fluidssome
conditions may affect the nylon core.

Testing
Warning:
Every Swagelok conductive core hose assembly is factory

tested for electrical conductivity.
All equipment must be properly grounded to prevent

static sparking.
Spring guards must be firmly attached to couplings on

both ends of hose.
Swagelok conductive core hose components are cleaned in

accordance with Swagelok standard cleaning and packaging
specification (SC-10). Each hose is bagged individually and
boxed; longer hoses are coiled, bagged, and boxed.
Electrical resistance must not exceed 5 M.
