December 9, 2011 - Eaton announced E-Series line of one-piece, crimp-type hose fittings. When coupled with Eaton Everflex hoses made from Teflon resin, these fittings allow customers to achieve up to 33 percent higher operating pressures than current Eaton and competitive hoses. The E-Series fittings and the higher pressures have been validated on Eaton’s 2807, FC465, S-TW and SC-TW series hoses. These fittings are available in both male pipe and female 37º swivel end configurations in both materials. The carbon steel offering now includes hose fittings for -8, -12 and -16 size hoses, which complement the existing -4, -6 and -10 size hoses.
The new stainless steel offering covers -4 through -16 size hoses. Everflex hose is specified in many tough applications. Its extruded tube has excellent flex life, high temperature resistance and chemical resistance. The Everflex hose is steam compatible and chemical resistant and is thus an excellent choice in applications requiring steam cleaning of an assembly or transfer of highly viscous media such as adhesives, paints or food products. High temperature systems such as steel mills, foundries, transit busses and air compressors are ideal applications of Everflex hose.
