HOSE
BLUE THUNDER™ UHMW Hose
Acid & Chemical
Series 7373T
This corrugated hose provides flexibility and durability in chemical full suction and
discharge applications. The clear Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) poly-
ethylene tube will handle 98% of the most common chemicals without leaching and
contaminating the product being conveyed. Refer to the chemical guide in the Safety
and Technical Data section of this catalog, or contact Parker to determine compatibility
with chemicals and applications.

WARNING! Elevated temperatures can change chemical resistance rat-
! ings. Most chemical resistance guides are based on testing performed
at ambient 70°F (21°C) and higher temperatures are likely to change these
ratings. Many chemicals will become more aggressive as temperatures
increase, reducing the ability of materials to withstand them. It is the users
responsibility to determine if the hose is compatible with the application.
Compatibility information can be requested from Parker for chemicals at
elevated temperatures, it will be necessary for users to perform compati-
bility testing if no data exists for the chemical at the temperature desired.
Also, coupling attachment becomes even more critical at elevated tempera-
tures. Only permanent crimp, internal expanded or swage style fittings
should be installed for applications with temperatures above 125°F. The
working pressure of banded assemblies below 125°F should be reduced
to maintain a 4:1 design factor based on the assembly burst capability.
WARNING! Combination nipple and bands reduce the working pressure
! of the assembly to less than the hose’s maximum working pressure. Refer
to NAHAD Assembly Guidelines for working pressure.
