flexVAC™ 180 HR (180HR)

High temperature abrasion resistant suction hose

An ideal solution for heavy-duty suction applications in high-temperature and abrasive environments. Lightweight, flexible, and designed to withstand temperatures up to 220°F, it ensures efficient material handling of fly ash, crushed rock, sand, pea gravel, or cement powder.

FEATURES

Lightweight and flexible heat resistant suction hose designed to sustain temperatures up to 220°F. Integral wire helix can be grounded. External helix provides easy drag. The smooth bore allows for precise flow because no irregularities in the wall can cause interruptions.

*Over flexing or repeated flexing of hose within 18″ (457 mm) of fitting is a common cause of hose failure. Installing a 12″-14″ (305-356 mm) section of our Banding Coil at the end of the hose should be considered. Kanaflex will not be responsible for damage to hose due to over flexing.
