Series 7170 and Natural Gas: The molecules of natural gas are small, enhancing their ability to permeate through standard rubber hose constructions. The permeation process is more rapid as the working pressure increases, and natural gas accumulates with potentially dangerous consequences. Series 7170 may be used for natural gas service, but ONLY under ALL of the following conditions:

  • The application must be in a well-ventilated environment: Outdoors, or indoors with significant continuous air movement.
  • Series 7170 is not to replace fixed/rigid pipe where that material is more appropriate due to reduced permeation and overall strength and durability. Use rigid pipe, non-permeable tubing or hose with barrier constructions to convey natural gas whenever possible.

Series 7170 and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG): Series 7170 is not for use in any CNG application, including fuel dispensing, on-board vehicle fuel lines, or fuel transfer.
