The Hi-Fitt® laboratories introduce Barrierflex CDS®, a spiral hose, able to resist corrosion by chlorinated water.

 

Hi-Fitt / Barrierflex Chlorine Defence Systeme - a spiral hoseThis one is suitable for feeding systems of swimming pool and hydro massage bath in place of regular rigid hoses. It combines two Hi-Fitt® patented technologies in an only hose: the crush-proof rigid spiral reinforcement inserted into the hose with Spiral Protection Barrier® that guarantees a higher degree of resistance, and the special film Chlorine Defence System® made of new PVC formulation that protects the hose from the abrasive action of chlorinated water.

 

Laboratory tests revealed that the presence of the CDS protective film guarantees 11 times less water absorption compared to other PVC products available on the market, together with a drastic improvement of ultimate tensile stress and ultimate elongation. According to the duration and temperature parameters of the test, exposure to chlorinated water shows that it is 3 times more resistant to ultimate tensile stress, while there is no change to its ultimate elongation.

 

The product is supplied with a Statement of Conformity and a 10 years Warranty Certificate.
