FEATURES

  • Mandals Flexitex is  used as feeder hose for any type of water transfer application. General purpose, water discharge rubber hose.
  • The hose is easy to store and deploy/retrieve.
  • Adapts well to the terrain and can be routed around obstacles.
  • Preferred supply hoses for irrigation and as feeder hoses for slurry systems.
  • The hose is also used as a light weight wash down  or transfer hose for water based and non polar liquids in construction and general industry. Ideal as “flexible pipeline” for industrial fire fighting teams.
  • Operating temperature from -30°C to +75°C ( -22°F to +167°F). Intermittent use up to +80°C (+176°F)

DESIGN

Slide Mandals Flexitex Extra is intended for more demanding fluid transfer, f. ex. for drill water supply to onshore rigs, as a feeder hose for larger irrigation and slurry units in the agricultural sector or as a general transfer hose for non-flammable liquids in construction, mining and industry.

The design ensures minimum stretching and a very high pressure rating to wall thickness ratio. The rubber blend has excellent chemical resistance and little or no reaction to H2S or saline content. Lengths up to 200 meters means less couplings and less pressure drop. FLEXITEX EXTRA
