General Purpose Metal Flex Hose

This unlined general purpose hose features interlocked
construction formed from a single metal strip. The balanced
interlocking manufacturing process provides for maximum
flexibility and longest service life. Pressure and vacuum
capabilities may be easily enhanced by the selection of
an appropriate packing material.

The unlined metal flex-hose is available in various alloys,
metal strip thicknesses and in diameters from 1-1/2" through
8" I.D. Interlocked hose is available in any length and can be
provided in bulk or fabricated assemblies.
