Apache 1-1/4" x 3' Nylon Braid Reinforced Anhydrous Ammonia (NH3) Hose Assembly | 98108320
The 1 1/4" x 3' Nylon Braid Reinforced NH3 Hose is a lightweight anhydrous ammonia transfer hose. The hose construction features corrosion resistant high tensile nylon braids. The perforated cover is resistant to abrasion and the dual green stripes provide color-coded identification.
The hose provides superior service in agricultural and industrial applications. The braided textile reinforcement provides corrosion and kink resistance for operator safety. The cover features dual green stripes for easy identification, and resists abrasion, chemicals and weathering for maximum durability and performance. Apache anhydrous hoses are qualified with permanent crimp couplings for a safe and secure connection and provides robust service in challenging applications.

- For Anhydrous Ammonia use ONLY. Do not use in Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG)/Propane or Natural Gas applications. Use only with couplings qualified by Parker. Do not use with couplings containing hidden o-rings such as male swivel couplings.
- Contact with Anhydrous Ammonia (NH3) will burn skin and is especially damaging to the eyes and lungs. This is true for its liquid and gaseous (vapor) state. Many accidents involving NH3 have occurred by using the wrong hose. NH3 hose must be specially compounded and constructed to handle the media. NEVER use a hose that is not designed for NH3 because it may fail very quickly and cause bodily injury or death. It is especially important to ensure that only Anhydrous Ammonia hose is recommended and used for this service. Refer to ARPM Publications IP-14 “Anhydrous Ammonia Hose, Specifications” and IP-11-2 “Anhydrous Ammonia Hose, Manual for Maintenance, Testing and Inspection.”
- Couplings attached with bands or clamps may reduce the working pressure of the hose assembly to less than the maximum rated working pressure of the hose. Refer to the NAHAD Industrial Hose Assembly Guidelines.
