Is TYGONÂ® A-60-F I.B. universal heat-resistant braided food hose safe for repeated steam autoclave sterilization and CIP/SIP cleaning?

Yes. TYGONÂ® A-60-F I.B. universal heat-resistant braided food hose is suitable for repeated steam autoclave sterilization and for CIP/SIP cleaning. The product description explicitly states multiple sterilization is possible with steam in autoclaves and via CIP and SIP of installations. Its norpreneÂ® TPE construction, temperature range up to +135Â°C, resistance to oxidizing disinfectants (e.g., hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite, ozone), and compliance with food-contact standards (US FDA 21 CFR 177.2600, NSF-51, 3-A) support safe repeated sterilization and cleaning, provided operating conditions (temperature, pressure, chemical concentrations) remain within the hoseâs specified limits.

Can TYGONÂ® A-60-F I.B. universal heat-resistant braided food hose be used with ozone and strong oxidizers like hydrogen peroxide?

Yes. TYGONÂ® A-60-F I.B. universal heat-resistant braided food hose is suitable for use with ozone and strong oxidizers such as hydrogen peroxide. The hose is noted for good chemical resistance to a range of chemicals, particularly oxidizing agents (hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite, ozone), is made of norpreneÂ® TPE, meets food-contact and hygiene standards (FDA 21 CFR 177.2600, NSF-51, 3-A), and tolerates multiple sterilization methods. Avoid use with hydrocarbons.

Can TYGONÂ® A-60-F I.B. universal heat-resistant braided food hose withstand contact with animal and vegetable fats during long-term use?

Yes. TYGONÂ® A-60-F I.B. universal heat-resistant braided food hose can withstand contact with animal and vegetable fats during long-term use. The hose is explicitly described as resistant to a variety of animal and vegetable fats, is food-grade (US FDA 21 CFR 177.2600, NSF-51, 3-A), odorless, tasteless and non-toxic, and is suitable for transfer and dispensing of cold and hot food products. Its material (norpreneÂ® TPE) and temperature range (â60Â°C to +135Â°C), good chemical resistance, and ability to undergo multiple sterilization methods (steam autoclave, CIP/SIP, ethylene oxide, radiation) further support long-term use with fats. It is not recommended for hydrocarbons, so avoid contact with hydrocarbon-based solvents or oils.
