Super Mining Flex Hose (Ring style)
When faced with severe bending, the Super Mining Flex also known as “Flex-pipe” by our customers would be a great choice. The ring design enables flexing with a maximum bend radius of 7 times the ID without deforming or crimping the wear tube, especially valuable for severe terrain following. Designed for 150-300PSI operating pressures.
The Super Mining Flex hose has many advantages over other rubber hoses. This hose is a ring-style hose that offers greater flexibility than wire reinforced hose. The wire-reinforced hose can be bend too far, which then kinks the hose and permanently damaging it. When going with a ring-style hose kinks will be prevented and allowing for much greater bends. The Super mining flex can handle a lot of movement and abuse without any issues. The hose is built with heavy-duty materials that increase the pump noise and vibration more than other rubber hoses.
Townley’s hand-built, American-made rubber hose is ensured to be built up to the highest standards. The Super Mining Flex ring style is a premium hose built with the highest quality materials.
