The “PVC Flexduct Light-Duty Clear” is a medium-weight clear PVC wall duct hose reinforced with a spring steel wire helix for industrial air movement and fume control applications. These commercial hoses provide great flexibility with tight bending characteristics and offer good chemical and moisture resistance. This duct hose is great for applications where ventilation and flexibility are a must. PVC hose material is an amorphous polymer, which results in a transparent finish. PVC hose material is non-transparent when they are manufactured using compounding agents. Since the main chain of the polymer is made by single bonds of carbon atoms, PVC has excellent chemical resistance.
The “PVC Flexduct Light-Duty Clear” light-duty duct hose has a working temperature range from -20 to 160+ degrees Fahrenheit. These commercial hoses are manufactured with FDA acceptable materials that can be used in food processing, pharmaceutical, and health care applications. PVC has polar groups (chlorine) and is amorphous, therefore it mixes well with various other substances. This makes for a chemically stable flex duct. This duct hose exhibits excellent flexibility and compressibility. In larger ID sizes, it has up to a 6 to 1 compression ratio, meaning a 12 foot length can compress down to 2 feet. In addition, the smaller sizes of this hose (2.25” and below) can handle a full vacuum at 29 Inch/Hg. Please refer to the product specification guide for exact information regarding the ID size you are considering.
The “PVC Flexduct Light-Duty Clear” are general-purpose collections ducts that are available in inside diameter sizes from 1.25” up to 24” ID. These are also available in metric sizes. These air, dust and light material collection ducts are available in clear colored standard 12.5 ft, 25 ft and 50 ft sections and come with plain cut ends. We stock this hose in many ID sizes and offer the product in lengths as short as 12.5 feet. This makes for cost-effective hose products that are shipped within 24-hours of order.
