Hydraulic PTFE-Lined Hose Designed for Skydrol & Ester-Based Hydraulic Fluids
The CONNECTALL Uni-Braid High-Pressure PTFE Hose is built for aviation and aerospace hydraulic systems that use Skydrol and other aggressive ester-based fluids. Engineered for extreme pressure and temperature conditions, this hose delivers safe, reliable, leak-free performance in critical hydraulic applications.
Engineered for Aviation Hydraulic Performance
Drawing on extensive experience troubleshooting ester-based hydraulic systems, the Uni-Braid hose features a conductive black PTFE inner tube that provides strong chemical compatibility and eliminates static buildup during fluid transfer. This design prevents hydraulic fluid weeping and supports long-term performance where precision and safety are critical.
A durable EPDM outer cover adds flexibility and easier handling while protecting against heat, abrasion, and environmental wear, making it well suited to maintenance, test stands, and high-performance aerospace equipment.
