Hoses for distillery

Post by cede »

Hi,
I was on this page http://mykin.com/rubber-chemical-resistance-chart-3 to look at some materials compatibility and I was comparing EDPM and Butyl.
I know most of plastics here are rejected until proven safe for the hobby, but I wanted to do some internet research on my own.
I was looking for some GC/MS tests on those polymers EDPM,Butyl, Pt cured Silicone checking if they could leak something into the vapor/liquid.

So while searching on butyl, I found Glidetech hoses specially developed for distilleries but they do not mention the material.

I made a forum search on glidetech on the forum and gg HD search an nothing came up.
Other hoses that can withstand ethanol are butyl, but this one is said to be usable with 96% ethanol and congeners.
