Temperature Effects
Kanaflex conducts tests at 72°F to determine the recommended
minimum bending radius, working pressures, and vacuum rat-
ings. Straight lengths of hose are used during testing. If the
ambient temperatures, or application induced temperatures,
vary from the 72°F baseline, stated specifications and ratings for
the hose will change. If the hose application and placement
includes bends, the stated specifications and ratings for the
hose will also change.
Please take these variance guidelines into account when deter-
mining the suitability of a hose for a specific application.
