Is the FORTRESSÂ® hose for washing equipment in the food industry safe for use with hot water up to 120Â°C and resistant to oils and greases?

Yes. The FORTRESSÂ® hose for washing equipment in the food industry is safe for use with hot water up to 120Â°C and is resistant to oils and greases . depending on the specific hose type. Key points from the product description: - Operating temperature: available in versions rated to +93Â°C or up to +120Â°C; choose the +120Â°C variant for hot-water applications up to 120Â°C. - Oil and grease resistance: inner layer of black NBR rubber and an outer CarbrynÂ® rubber cover deliver oil- and grease-resistant performance. - Hygiene and durability: external MicrobanÂ® antibacterial coating and non-soiling, abrasion-resistant construction make it suitable for cleaning devices in food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical environments. - Construction and strength: reinforcement options (single textile braid or single steel braid) and working pressures of 69 bar or 207 bar (type-dependent) provide robust performance for high-pressure cleaning. Ensure you select the correct FORTRESSÂ® hose model (the +120Â°C rated type) and confirm pressure and compatibility with your specific cleaning fluids and operating conditions before use.

Can the FORTRESSÂ® hose for washing equipment in the food industry be used with detergents and disinfectants without damaging its MicrobanÂ® coating?
