Is a PTFE Hose Right for Your Project?

PTFE hoses are incredibly useful for a wide range of applications, from home plumbing, fire extinguishers, gas piping to specialised applications in mining, defence and other industries. These hoses are uniquely equipped to prevent fluids from leaking out and contaminating the surrounding environment.

PTFE hoses have excellent temperature characteristics both in high and low temperatures as well as excellent chemical resistance, non-contamination properties, low coefficient of friction and resists deterioration. Therefore the hose is used generally in applications where all or one of the above properties is a key requirement.

What are PTFE Hoses?

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is an engineered fluoropolymer. Outstanding resistance to chemicals and an ability to withstand a broad temperature range of -54°C to 260°C are primary attributes that make it a useful material for hoses. It can handle the majority of fluids and ambient temperature conditions found in most industrial applications. PTFE hose can be used in aerospace, automotive, chemical, mining, defence and industrial applications.

An extremely low coefficient of friction (0.05 to 0.20) in PTFE results in a non-stick surface. Water absorption of PTFE is also negligible, less than 0.01% by ASTM test, and it is FDA-approved for food and pharmaceutical use. PTFE is chemically inert and will also withstand flexing and vibration without failure from flex fatigue. It will not break down or deteriorate in service, and it has an unlimited shelf life because properties do not change with age or exposure to weather.

Additional Benefits of PTFE Hoses

Unlike rubber, stainless steel hose with PTFE helps to prevent gas odours from permeating the hose itself. PTFE hose resists all types of fluids and chemicals, including gas, ethanol, transmission fluid, brake fluid, power steering fluid and antifreeze. Rubber doesn’t resist these fluids anywhere near as long as PTFE since these chemicals can break rubber down. If you don’t notice it, eventually the hose will start leaking. If you don’t notice a gas leak, your vehicle could catch fire, simply due to the heat in the engine compartment.

Furthermore, PTFE has higher temperature tolerances than rubber does. This means, for example, if used in an automobile and the engine overheats, you have less chance of the heat damaging the hoses. In addition to the high heat tolerance of PTFE, it has a higher pressure rating. So if any system the hose is used in generates more pressure than it normally should, there is a drastically lower chance of blowing a PTFE hose.

PTFE Hoses Considerations

With all types of hose, increased working temperatures require a reduction in maximum rated working or burst pressure. Whenever excessive flexing, vibration, thermal fluctuations or rapid pressure impulsing is in evidence, further caution should be exercised in reducing the maximum working pressure.

What Are S-LOK Certifications?

The two most important certifications when looking at stainless steel fittings are the S-LOK and PH certifications. S-LOK certification stands for Superlok, a company that makes what is the industry’s best locking quality guarantee when it comes to stainless steel fittings.

S-LOK hoses, pipes, and valves are ideal for high pressure tube connections in marine, offshore, mining and industrial piping systems, whether using hydraulic systems fluids, fuel oil, lubricating oil, fresh water, salt water, wastewater, gas, steam and condensate. They will not leak and are highly durable in both hot and cold temperatures.

Avoiding Common Problems With Fittings

Poorly gapped and leaky tube fitting connections are a major source of inconvenience, damage and potential danger. Unfortunately, it’s incredibly common. In the past, it’s been difficult to tell without special tools if you’ve tightened your tube fittings enough or if you have them in too tight. The result in either case is leaks, potential blowouts due to a poor seal, or excessive strain on your tubing. All these seemingly minor issues can add up to real problems, especially in large scale industrial applications.

Choosing the right stainless steel compression fittings can make a massive difference in safety and cost for your operations.

Using patented technology, S-LOK tube fittings and valves create a perfect seal every time, ensuring there are no leaks, saving time, money, and making working environments safer. There’s also no possibility of over-tightening during installation, meaning no added stress on your tubes. The built-in gap gauge on every fitting ensures it is done right every time. This means there’s no safer fitting on the market, guaranteeing a safe and secure connection over its lifespan.

What Makes S-LOK Fittings Different?

S-LOK tube fittings are manufactured under very strict quality control to assure maximum reliable performance. S-LOK tube fittings require no special tools assembly. Connections can be quickly and easily made by simple insertion and tightening the nuts.

S-LOK tube fitting has been specifically designed for use on instrumentation, process and control systems and equipment employed in chemical, petroleum, power generating and pulp and paper plants. S-LOK tube fittings could also be used in extensive applications of other fields where very high quality tube fittings are required.

Stainless Steel Requirements for Australian Mines

There is an expansive array of advanced equipment and machinery that is required to support crucial processes in the Australian mining industry. This equipment needs to be able to withstand harsh environments and be able to perform reliably for a long time. As a result, stainless steel has widely been identified as the ideal material for Australian mines.

Supporting Water Management Systems in Mines

The Australian mining industry has become a significant consumer of water and is under the same pressures as urban areas to improve water usage efficiency and environmental safety. These demands have led to the need to reliably access alternative sources of non-potable water such as rainwater, stormwater and groundwater. To do this, there is the need for the right equipment, systems and technologies to reuse and recycle this important resource.

Water is an efficient means of transporting resources between processes, disposing of waste materials and suppressing dust which, along with activities such as the dewatering of mines and centrifugal separation of materials, can result in acidic, saline or contaminated water that places high demands on the infrastructure required to transport it.

Key Benefits of Stainless Steel for Mining

Stainless steel has a number of key characteristics that make it suitable for applications in Australian mining, the most important of which include:

  • Durability – Stainless steel materials used for mining needs to be guaranteed to last for a number of years to ensure it’s a worthwhile investment.
  • Temperature resistance – the material may be exposed to extreme temperatures on both ends of the spectrum and the steel needs to be safe for hot/cold exposure
  • Corrosion resistance – The less likely the material is to sustain damage or rust while being used, the better suited it is for mines.
  • Chemical resistance – Stainless steel fittings, valves and other components used in mines should be able to be used with a variety of chemicals without being compromised.

As each mine in Australia presents unique geographical and environmental challenges, there’s a need for flexibility of choice when it comes to mechanical design and materials, to ensure that hydraulic consultants and engineers engaged in the design of water management systems in mines can specify the right valves and fittings for any application.

Innovation in Instrumentation Valves

Today’s modern industries utilise increasingly sophisticated piping and process systems to maintain efficiencies, improve safety, and provide consistent performance. Valves play an essential role in nearly any system, allowing for easier maintenance, greater process control, and improved operational safety.

Instrumentation valves have gone through multiple innovations over the years in terms of their design, look and functionality, which have a fundamental impact on manufacturing and production processes. The most important of these have been the prominence of high quality stainless steel instrumentation valves, allowing for a stronger, more durable, and longer-lasting system.

Function of Instrumentation Valves

Regardless of the type of valve used in a system, it probably serves one of the following essential functions:

  • Starting or stopping of fluid/chemical flow
  • Controlling the amount of fluid flow
  • Controlling the direction of fluid flow and preventing backflow
  • Regulating the downstream system or process pressure

Today’s complex systems often require the ability to both remotely actuate and monitor various processes. Manually inspecting gauges physically throughout an installation to record data around the clock isn’t feasible. On top of that, there are potential complications if a gauge or sensor requires replacement.

Instrumentation valves address these concerns by providing the ability to isolate critical sensors, gauges, and measurement tools within the piping system. This provides greater control over their use, allows for complex remote monitoring systems, and quickly isolates individual components for testing, maintenance, and replacement.

Flow Control Considerations

There is a vast range of instrumental valve options available. While all instrumentation valves serve the purpose of allowing easy isolation of gauges or instruments, your options for configuring or arranging said valves will have an impact on your implementation and use options. When choosing the best option for your application, you should consult with an engineer to ensure optimal service life, safe operation, and regulatory compliance.

If you need a valve with simple on and off operation, paying more for a highly calibrated and machined option with excellent throttle control isn’t needed. Likewise, if you need to control various elements of your flow processes precisely, two flow states probably won’t be enough. Fortunately, there are now designs that accommodate both use types and even ‘all-round’ options to ensure that you get both the flow control you need and long-lasting performance from the valves you choose.

Importance of Quality Materials

However, before you begin looking at valve designs, always consider the ideal materials. The perfect design won’t mean much if inferior materials lead to rapid corrosion, don’t meet regulatory or sanitary requirements, or are difficult to maintain. Whether you’re working with chemicals, gasses and slurries in water treatment or dealing with harsh maritime environments, stainless steel offers multiple benefits.

Stainless steel instrumentation valves provide an ideal mix of weight, cost, corrosion resistance, and easy maintenance for many use cases. Stainless steel instrumentation valves from Austfluid Link are strong, highly durable, and long-lasting. The ability to withstand corrosion and extreme temperatures make stainless steel instrumentation valves ideal for marine, mining, defence and automotive worksites.

3 Qualities of a Great Stainless Steel Supplier

Stainless steel fittings are essential for industrial and domestic applications. This strong, corrosion resistant, versatile iron alloy can support big infrastructures and be used to create precision fittings and parts. With several available products, grades and unique properties, you have to select the right stainless steel supplier to match your exact requirements.

1. Trusted Reputation

The supplier should be an industry leader with many years of experience. They should have the knowledge and experience to recommend precisely the right products for your unique needs. Finding a reliable supplier means that you have access to what you need when you need it, not months from when you started your order. Meeting your own production timetables is next to impossible if your suppliers take too long to get you the tools and materials you need. Look for reliable suppliers with a trusted reputation for delivering quality products with consistent delivery times.

2. Extensive Range of Products

An experienced supplier will deliver you the products that you need and in the quantity that you require. Ideally, you want to be able to purchase all your stainless steel products from the one supplier. They should be able to cater to large quantities and diverse product requirements.

3. Rigorous Product Testing

Check for product certification and other testing information to ensure you are getting the best quality stainless steel products available. Low-quality parts and materials that do not meet your required tolerances can cause havoc for your construction project or manufacturing processes. They can often pose a greater risk of damage to your building, equipment or products.

Having to reject and reorder parts/materials can cause delays or lead to expensive damage or project setbacks. Ensure your stainless steel parts supplier has the right certifications and testing processes to guarantee products are of a high standard.
