The Flex-Flyte L-9 hose by Hi-Tech Duravent

Hi-Tech Duravent manufactures and supplies an unmatched selection of industrial hoses in Canada, for a wide range of applications. One unique product from the company is expertly designed for plastics-processing applications: the Flex-Flyte L-9 hose. This plastics hose is perfect for conveying hot and dry air used to remove surface moisture from plastic resins.

Coloured brick-red and available in ten sizes, the Flex-Flyte L-9 is lightweight, non-kinking, and resistant to weather and ultraviolet rays.

Long life and low friction

Made for use in the aerospace and plastics industries, this hose is constructed out of two-ply fibreglass fabric, coated with silicone rubber both inside and out, with a helically wound spring wire embedded between the two plies. This advanced design ensures that the plastics hose has a long operational life and provides low friction, resulting in a very smooth airflow. The two-ply construction also helps the Flex-Flyte L-9 minimize heat loss.

Although it is mostly manufacturers and end users of drying equipment that employ this hose in plastics processing, Hi-Tech Duravent recommends it for a number of applications in other markets. It is suitable for dust, exhaust, light-powder, and chemical-fume removal, including fumes from lav waste, as well as pellet drying and pre-launch fuel venting. Businesses in the automotive sector, pulp and paper, plating equipment, and furnace cleaning find uses for this plastics hose.

Other notable features and benefits of the Flex-Flyte L-9:

  • cuffed ends;
  • easy installation;
  • availability in one-ply form (U-9) for lower-pressure applications;
  • continuous use in temperatures from -59 to 260 degrees Celsius; and
  • ability to withstand temperatures above 315 degrees Celsius.

The Flex-Flyte L-9 hose is available in 12- and 25-foot lengths, with inner diameters ranging from two to 12 inches. This hose is not recommended for conveying liquids or abrasive materials. Non-standard lengths and cuffs are available.

Trust Hi-Tech Duravent hoses for virtually any application.
