BFM® is More Efficient

The BFM® fitting flexible connector system provides so many advantages in terms of operational efficiency, it's an investment that pays for itself many times over.

The unique 'snap-in' fit makes changeovers fast, easy and accurate. They are also made from flexible, robust materials that significantly extend product life versus traditional products like silicon and rubber.

You can standardize connector sizes across your equipment line meaning you need to keep less stock and ensure a correct, accurate fit every time.

How BFM® is More Efficient

BFM® blue band connectors are easy to remove and install - so easy that it can be done in under 30 seconds.

Less stoppages for replacements and clean-ups due to connector failures or leakage means more production up-time.

BFM®'s seal from the inside so there is nowhere for your product or dust to leak from. Your product stays inside your process.

Improve Your Productivity

Old-style clamped connectors are difficult to fit correctly and often tear, causing product spillages and production downtime for replacements.

The unique snap-fit of the BFM® fitting mean changeovers can be done in as little as 30 seconds. The materials are also extremely durable and won't rip or tear so need to be replaced less often.

Inaccurate measurements and product variations with traditional hose clamp systems make installation and stock control a challenge.

BFM® connector sizes are manufactured in standard lengths and diameters, which means you can standardize BFM® spigot and connector sizes across the factory. You need to keep less spare stock on hand plus you'll get a consistent fit - no matter who does the replacement.

Case Study

"BFM® has totally solved the problem and we have had no lost production ever since."

- Factory Manager

The canvas weigh hopper connectors at a leading British concrete products manufacturer absorbed moisture, making them prone to blockages.

This caused considerable lost productivity and poor weighing accuracy. To add to the problem, jubilee clips caused excessive dust leakage and made replacement extremely time consuming.
