Colour variation can be applied on Airflex SL, Vohran, Ragno CR, Ragno PU and Armoflex PVC hoses.

The colouring is obtained by applying a coat of metallic paint, made of a special resin that supports metallic pigments, free of heavy metals like lead or chrome. This layer gives high brilliance and abrasion resistance.

The organic solvents used during the production process are not classified as toxic.
