NEOPRENE FLEXIBLE DUCT CONNECTOR
- The Industry Standard for HVAC Systems
- For High Pressure and High Velocity Systems
- Strong – Airtight – Waterproof – Mildew Resistant
- Resists many acids, alkalis, grease, oil and gasoline
- For systems exposed to toxic fumes and polluted atmosphere
In general use for more than twenty years, NEOPRENE has become the standard for the air handling industry. It is the most frequently specified and most widely used flexible connector material. NEOPRENE offers air tight and waterproof performance, has outstanding burst strength and excellent flex life and aging characteristics. NEOPRENE resists many acids, alkalis, grease, oil and gasoline, and a broad range of other chemicals.
