The TPX™ LDH Hose
TPX™ LDH
The Ultimate Lightweight 3-Ply Hose for Maximum Power
3-ply nitrile rubber supply hose
Traditionally, manufactured extruded hose can vary in thickness, becoming bulky, and heavy. TPX™ utilizes a 3-ply design where the ribbed cover and smooth nitrile liner are extruded independently. The cover is inserted inside the tight-weave reinforcement, vulcanized, and turned inside out. The liner is then inserted and the hose is vulcanized for a second time to form a bond of all three plies, guaranteeing a consistent, compact hose wall. The Snap-tite TPX™ is highly resistant to both conductive and radiant heat.
