Partial Coverage Stainless Steel Inner Braid is woven into the inner liner of high-temperature synthetic rubber. The timing of the braiding and the curing of the rubber during construction are the key to achieving the desired flexibility and mechanical bond between the braiding layers. Beware of cheaper hoses that do not have this critical mechanical bond.
The Inner Liner constructed from Temprel synthetic rubber tube, clean and fast flowing, provides constant flow at operating temperatures from -40? to +300 F.	Full Coverage Outer Braid of High Tensile Stainless Steel bonded to the hose liner provides maximum pressure capabilities, while maintaining the beauty, and flexibility that is responsible for the popularity of AUTO-FLEX? hose.
