Stainless steel anti-kink armor casing presents
over-bending/kinking of hose and provides chafe protection
for the wire braid. Casing provides an added safety
feature, allowing hose assembly to weep rather than rupture
if for some reason the tube should fail. Armor can be
ordered full length or 16" cuffs at each end to contain
potential stress at the fitting. Armor casing is strongly
recommended for all TD assemblies 3/4" in ID and larger.
