Does PVC/PVC hose for air, water and agricultural chemicals REFITTEX require different reinforcements for 20, 40, and 80 bar versions?

Yes. PVC/PVC hose for air, water and agricultural chemicals REFITTEX uses different reinforcement depending on the pressure rating: 20 bar and 40 bar versions use a polyester braid reinforcement, while the 80 bar REFITTEX version uses a double polyester braid. Working pressure is specified at 20Â°C and decreases with rising temperature.

Can PVC/PVC hose for air, water and agricultural chemicals REFITTEX be used with corrosive agrochemicals and fungicides?

Yes. PVC/PVC hose for air, water and agricultural chemicals REFITTEX can be used with many agrochemicals and fungicides, but with important limitations and precautions. Key points: - Intended use: REFITTEX is designed for compressed air, water, light chemicals, fungicides, fertilizers and pesticides, and is commonly used in agricultural spraying and irrigation. - Chemical compatibility: Suitable for many common, nonâhighly corrosive agrochemicals and typical fungicide formulations (especially waterâbased and light solvent systems). Highly corrosive acids, strong oxidizers, aggressive solvents or concentrated aggressive formulations may degrade PVC or the polyester braid and should be avoided unless compatibility is confirmed by the chemical manufacturer. - Pressure/temperature limits: Working pressure depends on version/stripe (20, 40 or up to 80 bar) at 20 Â°C and decreases as temperature rises. Operating temperature range is â20 Â°C to +60 Â°C. Ensure the chosen REFITTEX variant meets required pressure at your working temperature. - Mechanical durability: Outer layer resists abrasion and weather, reinforcement provides strength (double braid on 80 bar version), but fittings, clamps and installation practice must be appropriate for chemical service. - Recommendation: Check the specific agrochemicalâs compatibility with PVC and polyester (consult the chemicalâs MSDS or supplier). For concentrated, highly corrosive or solventâbased products, use a hose specifically rated for those chemicals. Rinse and flush hoses after use and replace if signs of swelling, cracking, softening, discoloration or loss of strength appear. Conclusion: PVC/PVC hose for air, water and agricultural chemicals REFITTEX is suitable for many fungicides and agrochemicals used in agriculture when they are not highly corrosive or solventâbased; verify chemical compatibility, operating pressure and temperature for your application before use.
