The “SS-Flex 800” is a single-ply helically corrugated stainless steel hose with a four-ply finished seam that is folded flat and crimped, allowing for excellent tightness and strength. Unlike other forms of steel, stainless steel does not readily corrode, rust or stain when it comes into contact with moisture. Stainless steel is essentially low carbon steel, which contains chromium at 10% or more by weight. It is this addition of chromium that gives the steel its unique corrosion resisting properties. This flexible steel hose is also very lightweight allowing for easy installation. The hose’s flexibility allows for this stainless hose to be hand bendable, allowing you to easily create elbows and turns during installation. Because the stainless steel is resistant to weathering, moisture, corrosive fumes, and chemicals, this product exhibits excellent life.

This flexible high temperature hose has a temperature range of -400 degrees to +800 degrees Fahrenheit. This truly wide temperature range gives this flexible steel hose great versatility, allowing it to be used in a large variety of industries. Stainless steel’s resistance to corrosion and staining, low maintenance and familiar luster, makes it an ideal material for many applications. This flexible high temperature hose is also an aesthetic choice in commercial kitchens with exposed fume hoods.
The “SS-Flex 800” stainless steel hose comes in a standard length of both 5 and 10 feet with plain cut ends. Available ID sizes for this flexible hose range from 2 to 12 inches.
