Chemical and pharmaceutical hoses
Depending on the chemicals, operating conditions and localities of use within the chemical or pharmaceutical industries, we have a wide range of elastomer hoses and also combinations with plastic liners such as EPDM, FKM, polyethylene (PE-UHMW), FEP and PTFE. Most of the hoses have an EPDM outer layer with polyester braiding and copper strands and are available with or without steel wire spirals. They also comply with the chemical hose standard DIN EN 12115. Our products also meet the tests, approvals and conformities required by the different markets, such as EG 1935/2004, USP Cl. VI, DIN / ISO 10993, FDA and BfR 21.
Angst+Pfister offers the right fittings for all hoses. The product range includes lever arm couplings (KAMLOK®, AUTOLOK®), clamp jaw couplings, flanges, TriClamp and RACOSTEAM® steam hose fittings. The complete product range of our APSOfluid® core brands CHEMOLIT® and VAPOTHERM is available from stock.
The market requirements regarding the integration of fittings have become more and more challenging. Angst+Pfister complies with the recommendations and guidelines of the Liability Insurance Association (Berufsgenossenschaft) T 002. The professional assembly and testing of the hoses are accomplished in our own production sites in Embrach, Switzerland – highest quality is thus guaranteed.
Hoses for Food & Beverage
In the food industry there are extensive possible applications for hoses and also the media and their properties differ greatly from one another. But whether for fatty, alcoholic or dry and abrasive media – we have the right hose line for you!
Food hoses must be tasteless and odorless, resistant to the conveyed media and at the same time comply with strict hygienic regulations. But product quality isn’t the only thing that counts, qualified advice also matters. Currently especially relevant is the compliance to the regulation EU Nr.10/2011 for plastics intended to come into contact with food (Plastic Implementation Measure, PIM) on the basis of the regulation EC 1935/2004 as it is mandatory since January 1st, 2016.
For all food & beverage hoses Angst+Pfister offers the matching fittings. With DIN 11851, SMS, DIN 32676 (TriClamp) and DIN 14420 you have several options to choose from. The complete product assortment of our key brands GOLDSTAR®, LACTAPRESS, LACTOVAP and NYLFLEX BIO is available from stock.
Drinking water hoses
Our drinking-water hoses have an inner ply made of high-grade anti-adhesive polymeric materials, and depending on the deployment area, their outer ply consists of an elastomer or thermoplastic with stainless steel braiding. Hoses with a pressure carrier are suitable for operating pressures of up to 18 bar and operating temperatures up to +90°C. GEKA Plus couplings and pressed fittings, for example can be used as connectors.
Angst+Pfister offers three different types of hoses suitable for different deployment areas:
1. Hoses without liners for unpressurized applications
2. Stainless steel braided hoses as connecting lines to the water supply grid
3. Hoses with a pressure carrier and an outer ply for mobile water supply
