Press Release Summary: Now available from stock, EPDM hose offers excellent chemical
resistance, flexibility, and a smooth, sanitary core. Called APEWF, the hose handles
both pressure and vacuum applications and offers improved flexibility over stiffer

APEWF handles temperatures from -40F up to 248F (-40C to 120C), a range wider
than standard EPDM hoses.

Press Release Body: AdvantaPure is pleased to announce the immediate availability of
its wire-reinforced EPDM hose for applications involving pharmaceuticals, chemicals,
foods, and beverages. The highly flexible hose, called APEWF, is engineered to
handle a wide variety of fluids in applications requiring elevated pressure and
vacuum.

APEWF is constructed with a smooth, white EPDM rubber core reinforced with a wire
helix and multiple layers of durable rubber. The hose provides flexibility and a
smooth, sanitary inner surface for unrestricted flow. Uses cover pharmaceutical
processing, beverage transfer, potable water lines, washdown stations, coolant
transfer, glycol lines, and others.

The hose's performance advantages include:

Excellent chemical resistance properties
Improved flexibility over stiffer fluoropolymer hoses
Helical wire reinforcement to handle a higher level of internal pressures
Custom-designed hose construction to easily manage bends, turns, and corners
A smooth inner surface to resist bacteria build-up; complies with FDA standards

APEWF handles temperatures from -40F up to 248F (-40C to 120C), a range wider
than standard EPDM hoses. It's stocked in sizes ranging from 3/4" to 4" I.D. (19mm
