PTFE Hose with Silicone Protective Cover for Hot Water Transfer in Eyewear Manufacturing
How the TSSSW PTFE Hose from CJan Fluid Technology Improves Safety, Cleanability and Reliability

Introduction

Hot water transfer plays an important role in many industrial manufacturing processes, including adhesive preparation and temperature control systems used in the eyewear industry. Although the transferred medium may only be purified water, elevated temperatures, continuous operation and demanding production environments require tubing that offers far more than basic pressure resistance.
Recently, an eyewear manufacturing customer contacted CJan Fluid Technology Co., Ltd. seeking a hose solution for its adhesive production equipment. In addition to temperature and pressure requirements, the customer needed a hose that would be easier to clean while preventing exposed stainless steel braiding from scratching operators or nearby equipment.
After evaluating the operating conditions, CJan recommended the TSSSW Silicone Covered Stainless Steel Braided Smooth PTFE Hose, providing a solution that combines excellent thermal performance with improved safety and maintenance.

Application Challenge
The customer manufactures adhesive materials used in the eyewear production industry.
The hose is installed inside production equipment to transfer purified water under the following operating conditions:
Medium: Purified Water
Working Temperature: Up to 160°C
Working Pressure: Below 1.2 MPa
While the operating pressure is relatively moderate, the application presents several engineering challenges.

Engineering Requirements

Reliable Performance at Elevated Temperatures
Although only purified water is transferred, continuous operation at temperatures approaching 160°C requires tubing materials capable of maintaining long-term dimensional stability and mechanical strength.
Pressure Safety
The hose must safely withstand operating pressures below 1.2 MPa while maintaining flexibility for equipment installation.
Easy Cleaning
The equipment operates in a manufacturing environment where cleanliness is important. The hose exterior should have a smooth surface that is easy to wipe clean and resistant to dirt accumulation.
Improved Operator Safety
Traditional stainless steel braided PTFE hoses often expose the wire braid. During installation or maintenance, exposed wires may scratch operators or damage surrounding equipment.
The customer therefore required an external protective layer that could improve both safety and appearance.

Recommended Solution: TSSSW Silicone Covered Stainless Steel Braided Smooth PTFE Hose

Based on the customer's application requirements, CJan Fluid Technology Co., Ltd. recommended the TSSSW Silicone Covered Stainless Steel Braided Smooth PTFE Hose.
The hose combines three functional layers:
Smooth PTFE inner tube
Stainless steel braided reinforcement
Silicone protective outer cover
Each layer contributes to improving overall performance while addressing specific challenges encountered in industrial production environments.

Why TSSSW Is the Right Choice

Excellent Temperature Resistance
The smooth PTFE inner tube provides outstanding thermal stability and is well suited for continuous hot water transfer at temperatures up to 160°C.
Reliable Pressure Performance
The stainless steel braid reinforces the hose structure, providing the strength required for applications operating below 1.2 MPa.
Silicone Protective Cover Improves Safety
Unlike conventional braided hoses with exposed stainless steel wire, the silicone outer layer completely covers the reinforcement.
This protective layer helps:
Prevent scratches during installation and maintenance
Protect surrounding equipment from abrasion
Improve handling comfort
Enhance the overall appearance of the hose assembly
Easier Cleaning
The smooth silicone exterior is much easier to clean than exposed stainless steel braid.
Dust, adhesive residue and other contaminants can be removed quickly, helping maintain a cleaner production environment.
Excellent Flexibility
Despite its reinforced construction, the hose maintains good flexibility, making routing and installation easier inside compact equipment.

Why PTFE?
PTFE remains one of the preferred materials for demanding industrial fluid transfer because it offers:
Excellent temperature resistance
Extremely low friction
Outstanding chemical resistance
Smooth inner surface for efficient flow
Long service life
Minimal aging under continuous operation
These characteristics make PTFE suitable for applications ranging from purified water systems to aggressive chemical transfer.

Typical Applications
The TSSSW hose is suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including:
Eyewear manufacturing equipment
Adhesive production systems
Hot water circulation systems
Industrial heating equipment
Process water transfer
Temperature control systems
Chemical processing equipment
General industrial fluid transfer
