NL5170 has largely been replaced by the more popular NL5160 All Clear nowadays. It is a cost-effective, clear PVC food transfer hose with a smooth wall and a white PVC helix (or red NL5171) for colour coding purposes. It is commonly used for the suction or discharge of milk, syrup, juice, wine, pellets, non-abrasive granular materials/powders, or various other food processing applications. Its smooth exterior prevents hang-ups or material build-up on the outside and it allows for ease of clamping. Its clear properties allow the visual inspection of materials being conveyed.
