Flexible Duct

Flexible ducting is a type of ducting pipe that could easily be bent at different angles. This product is made out of flexible materials like polyurethane (PU) and PVC, often with a steel spiral wire to provide even more flexibility. Some products have aluminum insulation layers and even fiberglass insulation added (insulated ducting), like flexible acoustic ducting. There are many options on the market to fit the needs of production processes and other applications.

The material composition of a flex duct is one of the most important factors to consider for your intended application. A flex duct’s material can determine the difference between the success of your application and its failure. Certain materials are better suited for specific applications compared to others. For example, if you have a high-temperature application involving temperatures beyond 400° F, it is best to use a flex duct made of silicone or stainless steel or silicone because those materials can survive contact with extreme temperatures much better than PVC or a neoprene-coated fabric.
