SS Braided High Pressure Teflon, Flexible Tail pipe with Spring for Oxygen Nrv Type (1.25 Mtr)

The SS Braided High Pressure Teflon Flexible Tail Pipe with Spring for Oxygen NRV Type (1.25 Mtr) is a high-pressure oxygen transfer assembly designed for use in hospital gas delivery systems, emergency oxygen setups, and regulated industrial oxygen applications. Engineered with a PTFE inner lining and stainless steel braided outer reinforcement, this oxygen NRV flexible tail pipe supports secure oxygen flow between cylinders, manifolds, regulators, and terminal units where pressure stability and mechanical protection are required. The integrated spring protection helps reduce kinking and stress at connection points during repeated handling in ICU, OT, and ambulance environments. Suitable for oxygen-compatible systems, the assembly is commonly used by biomedical engineers, respiratory care teams, and facility maintenance personnel managing central gas infrastructure.

CLINICAL USE CONTEXT

In clinical environments, oxygen delivery assemblies must maintain uninterrupted gas flow while tolerating frequent movement, pressure variation, and equipment handling. This SS braided oxygen tail pipe is commonly used in ICU oxygen cylinder setups, anaesthesia workstations, emergency transport systems, and manifold connections where oxygen transfer reliability is essential. Biomedical technicians and respiratory therapists frequently utilise reinforced flexible assemblies in areas where rigid piping is impractical or where mobile oxygen support is required. The PTFE inner tube provides oxygen-compatible flow characteristics, while the external stainless steel braid offers mechanical reinforcement in high-dependency clinical areas such as operating theatres, emergency departments, and ambulance systems. Spring protection near the terminal connection points assists in reducing hose fatigue caused by repetitive bending during routine clinical use.

FAQ

1. Is this flexible tail pipe suitable for medical oxygen use?

Yes, the assembly is designed for oxygen NRV type systems commonly used in hospitals and clinical oxygen delivery infrastructure. It is intended for controlled oxygen transfer applications where high-pressure compatibility and reinforced hose protection are required.

2. What is the purpose of the stainless steel braided outer layer?

The stainless steel braid provides external reinforcement to help protect the hose from mechanical stress, abrasion, and deformation during handling. This is particularly important in ICU, ambulance, and manifold environments where oxygen lines may be repositioned frequently.

3. Can this hose be used with oxygen cylinders and regulators?

The tail pipe is commonly used between oxygen cylinders, regulators, manifolds, and compatible NRV systems. Users should verify connector specifications, pressure ratings, and institutional compatibility requirements before installation.

4. Is the inner lining resistant to oxygen-related degradation?

The PTFE (Teflon) inner material is widely used in gas transfer assemblies due to its chemical stability and suitability for oxygen-compatible applications. Proper maintenance and periodic inspection should still be performed according to biomedical engineering protocols.

5. Can this flexible oxygen tail pipe be sterilised?

This product is generally managed through surface decontamination rather than conventional steam sterilisation. Cleaning and disinfection methods should follow the healthcare facility’s approved biomedical equipment maintenance and infection-control procedures.

SAFETY DISCLAIMER

This product is intended for use by trained medical, technical, or biomedical personnel familiar with oxygen delivery systems and high-pressure gas handling. Users should verify compatibility with existing oxygen regulators, NRV systems, and institutional gas infrastructure before clinical deployment. Cleaning, inspection, and decontamination must be performed according to hospital biomedical maintenance and sterilisation protocols.
