Is the VE8 M double braided aramid thermoplastic hose suitable for prolonged contact with isocyanates and polyols at temperatures up to +100Â°C?

Yes . the VE8 M double braided aramid thermoplastic hose is suitable for prolonged contact with isocyanates and polyols at temperatures up to +100Â°C, with important conditions. Why: the hose is explicitly designed for solvents, paints, isocyanates and polyols, and its specified operating temperature range is -40Â°C to +100Â°C. Its construction . polyamide inner layer, double aramid braid reinforcement and microâperforated polyurethane outer layer . supports chemical compatibility and mechanical strength needed for such media. However, note two practical caveats: - For water and air the manufacturer limits the maximum temperature to +70Â°C; this limitation does not negate the +100Â°C rating for isocyanates/polyols but indicates mediaâspecific restrictions, so confirm application-specific limits. - For installation, servicing or any exceptional conditions (pressure, continuous exposure, aggressive formulations, steam, cleaning agents, or mechanical wear), follow TUBES INTERNATIONALÂ® installation guidance and verify chemical compatibility with the specific isocyanate/polyol formulation and operating pressure. If you need a definitive go/noâgo for a specific formulation, pressure and duty cycle, provide those details or request manufacturer confirmation.

Can VE8 M double braided aramid thermoplastic hose be used for intermittent exposure to solvents and paints at -40Â°C to +100Â°C?

Yes. VE8 M double braided aramid thermoplastic hose is specifically designed for solvents and paints and is rated for intermittent operation across the stated temperature range (-40Â°C to +100Â°C). Its polyamide inner layer and double aramid braid provide chemical resistance and mechanical strength, while the micro-perforated polyurethane outer layer offers durability. Note the manufacturer specifies water and air up to +70Â°C; for other fluids at the upper limit, verify compatibility and consult TUBES INTERNATIONALÂ® for installation guidance and confirmation for your specific solvent/paint formulations and intermittent exposure conditions.

Can VE8 M double braided aramid thermoplastic hose handle compressed gases and water-based fluids at +70Â°C continuous?

Yes. VE8 M double braided aramid thermoplastic hose can handle compressed gases and waterâbased fluids at +70Â°C continuous, with these considerations: - The hose is rated for an overall operating temperature range of -40Â°C to +100Â°C, and specifically for water and air up to +70Â°C, so +70Â°C is within the specified continuous service limit for water-based fluids and air/gases. - Construction supports this service: polyamide inner layer, double aramid braid reinforcement and microâperforated polyurethane outer layer provide strength, flexibility and chemical compatibility for solvents, paints, isocyanates, polyols, gases, air and waterâbased fluids. - The product exceeds SAE 100R8 and ISO 3949âR8 requirements, indicating suitability for compressed gas and pneumatic applications when installed per spec. - Ensure proper installation and selection: follow TUBES INTERNATIONALÂ® installation instructions, verify pressure/impulse requirements for your specific compressed gas and temperature, and confirm chemical compatibility of the waterâbased fluid at +70Â°C with the polyamide inner layer. If you need, provide operating pressure, gas/fluid type and application details for a definitive suitability check.
