Smooth Bore Metric Range

Smooth Bore Metric Range

Product catalog summary
Product Description: Kongsberg Automotive's Smoothbore Metric Range is designed for compatibility with standard hydraulic tailed fittings. The hoses have a slightly larger internal diameter than the Imperial Range, reducing the force needed for assembly. This design helps users minimize inventory by requiring only one fitting type for all hoses.
Specifications: The Metric Range includes various hose sizes, each with specific nominal tolerances for braided ID and OD, tube wall thickness, maximum working pressure, minimum burst pressure, and minimum bend radius. The hoses are available with antistatic liners for transferring electrically resistive fluids at high flow rates. Options include two-wire braid, 316 stainless steel braid, and heavy wall derivatives.
Applications: These hoses are used globally in industries such as Industrial, Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Automotive, and Food, where high temperature, pressure, cleanliness, or flex fatigue are critical.
Design: The hoses feature a smoothbore PTFE tube with a high tensile SS 304 braid in metric sizing. The inner layer is a medium wall smoothbore PTFE tube, while the outer layer is a high tensile 304 maypole wound stainless steel braid.
Temperature Range: The hoses can operate in temperatures ranging from -60°C to +260°C (-76°F to +500°F).
Material: The hoses are made from PTFE according to ISO12086, Part 1.PTFE-E.P.D.M 1.6.1.C.E.4_12.

Smooth Bore Metric Range-1

FLUID TRANSFER SYSTEMS Metric Product Description Kongsberg Automotives Smoothbore Metric Range is designed to accept standard hydraulic tailed fittings. The ID of the hoses are made slightly larger than the Imperial Range so helps reduce the insertion force required to make assemblies. The Metric hose range was designed to help reduce Hydraulic rubber users reduce their inventory with only needing to stock one fitting to suit all hoses. Used globally in the Industrial, Chemical, Pharmaceutical, Automotive and Food industries when lesser hoses can’t cope with the temperature, pressure, cleanliness or flex fatigue. Smoothbore PTFE tube with high tensile SS 304 braid in metric sizing Inner layer Medium wall smoothbore PTFE tube Outer Layer High tensile 304 maypole wound Stainless Steel braid PTFE according to “ISO12086, Part 1.PTFE-E.P.D.M 1.6.1.C.E.4_12” Metric Range Tube Wall Thickness Nom. Part Number Note Antistatic liners are available for the Metric range for when electrically resistive fluids are being transferred at high flow rates. Both two wire braid, 316 stainless steel braid and Heavy Wall derivatives are available for this range. Please contact our sales team for more information on these products.
