With these fittings, most installation needs are easily met. Please consult us for any designs or applications not pictured here. Convoluted hose fittings feature the exclusive Titeflex progressive swaging method of attachment. When attached correctly, the innercore and insert form a permanent assembly. The positive braid lock assures that strain is absorbed by the braid, not the hose innercore, ensuring hose integrity.

Fitting Details

Titeflex’s Tefzel® encapsulated flange retaining inserts are now available in 1″, 1-1/2″ and 2″sizes. These fittings are manufactured using a base insert of nickel plated carbon steel. The Tefzel® compound is injection molded around this base insert at high pressure. This high pressure injection molding results in a tough zero porosity plastic encapsulation which is highly corrosion resistant. The wall thickness on all wetted surfaces of the flange retaining insert is a minimum of .060″.

Dependent on media, temperature capability of the encapsulated stub end is 250°F.
