Advantages over Conventional Hose

Pharmaline can be used to replace silicone rubber hoses, particularly where the much better chemical resistance and ease of cleaning of PTFE hose liner is an advantage.
Unlike silicone rubber lied hoses, Pharmaline can be steam sterilized any number of times, without degradation of the hose liner.
Pharmaline can used to replace conventional smoothbore PTFE lined hoses in applications where the much better flexibility of Pharmaline is an advantage.
Pharmaline is smaller in O/D and lighter in weight tan its nearest rival product because the construction does not include any glass fibre filler layers. The PTFE weight per unit length, however is higher.
