Differences between PTFE and PA AN3 brake hose assembly:
The temperature range of PA brake hose is -40℃-120℃, while it’s -60℃-260℃ of PTFE brake hose
PTFE brake hose assembly has better bend radius and flexibility
PTFE is flame retardant, but PA can be ignited
AN3 Brake Hose Description:
Strong acid, alkali and organic solvent is one of the main properties of PTFE. Thus it can transfer all the chemicals. Besides, it has the smallest friction coefficient among all the plastics which is only 0.04. Moreover, it has the longest lifespan among the plastics. Therefore, it’s regarded as the “King of plastics”.
PTFE brake hose is originally used on the airplane as the hydraulic part. Because of the great low expansion property at high temperature, it provides excellent hydraulic transmission effect. Then, the hydraulic force from general brake pump can entirely force the branches to provides stable brake force. Besides, the metal layer is hard to break, which greatly reduces the brake failure caused by leakage or damage. Thus PTFE brake hose provides you the security guarantee.
AN3 brake hose Chracteristics:
High and low temperature resistant
High pressure and ozone resistant
Flexible with small bend radius
Aging resistant without distortion
Excellent chemical stability and corrosion resistance
Long lifespan
AN3 brake hose assembly from OrientFlex is a coming man on the market. It’s your necessity to refit your brake system and race car.
