Seeflex 040E is a clear ether-based thermoplastic polyurethane alloy. It is very strong and flexible, so won't fracture as a result of constant flexing.
Atex Compliant: IBExU tested and can be used in all dust explosion hazardous areas. (A copy of certification is available on request).
FDA 21 CFR 177.1680 & 177.2600, USDA & 3A (20-), (EC) 1935/2004, 2023–2006 & 10/2011
Diameters: Ø100mm (4"), Ø125mm (5"), Ø150mm (6") through to Ø1,650mm (65") in 50mm (2") increments
Lengths: 80mm (3"), 100mm (4") then in 50mm (2") increments up to 6,000mm (19ft 8")
NB: Some length restrictions apply for connectors over Ø650mm, and diameter/length restrictions apply for those with anti-collapse rings or Tool Release options. Refer to the Quick Reference Limitations Summary for more information.
