Long-life PTFE-lined pigtails from

3000 PSI to 6000 PSI rated….

UNISOURCE offers the industry’s most complete assortment of PTFE-lined high-pressure gas pigtails. Each pigtail assembly is pressure tested to 1-1/2 times the rated working pressure. Pigtails are also marked with manufacturer, construction, pressure rating, and date manufactured. All of the Unisource pigtails surpass the requirements of CGA E.9.

 

Style TSC pigtails are the workhorse of the industry. Light and highly flexible, this style carries a working pressure rating of 3000 PSI maximum working pressure. Each pigtail assembly is tested to 4500 PSIG. Constructed with a white, non-conductive PTFE liner. Fittings are available in both brass and stainless steel. Stainless steel full-time swivel ends are also a standard stock item for this hose.

Style TSCZ pigtails are similar in construction to Style TSC, with the addition of a second reinforcing braid. This reinforcing provides a working pressure of 3600 PSI maximum working pressure for additional strength and safety. Fitting options are identical to Style TSC hose.

Style TSHD pigtails carry the highest pressure rating in the industry—6000 PSI maximum working pressure. Built with a heavy-duty double stainless steel braid and double spiral wrap reinforcing, and black static-conducting PTFE core. Fittings are stainless steel FNPT or FJIC swivel. Style TSHP, 5000 PSI available on special request.
