Vacuum hoses
EM-Tec Flextube clear, wire reinforced thick wall PVC vacuum hose
EM-Tec Flextube is a clear, wire-reinforced thick wall PVC vacuum for making flexible and custom vacuum hoses. Made from corrosion resistant clear thick wall PVC with embedded zinc plated spring steel wire. This flexible yet strong hose allows for relatively sharp bends and will not collapse under vacuum. Outside and inside of the PVC vacuum hoses are smooth. The smallest bending radius is approximately 3.5 times the outside diameter. To prevent vacuum leaks, use hose clamps to tighten the PVC vacuum hose on the vacuum hose adaptors. Current choice includes: 16mm and 25mm ID PVC vacuum hoses. Available in lengths up to 10 metres.
EM-Tec DN-KF Flextube PVC vacuum hoses
The ready to use EM-Tec DN-KF Flextube vacuum hoses are made from EM-Tec Flextube clear, wire reinforced PVC hose with KF hose adaptors on each end. They are available with KF16 and KF25 flanges with lengths from 0.5 to 5 metres.
