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 to 300 PSI 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. Wire-reinforced hose can be bent too far, which then kinks the hose, permanently damaging it. When going with a ring-style hose, kinks will be prevented, 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 decrease the pump noise and vibration more than other rubber hoses.
Townley’s hand-built, American-made rubber hose is manufactured to the highest standards. The Super Mining Flex ring style is a premium hose built with the highest quality materials.
