In general use for more
than twenty years, NEOPRENE has become the standard for the air handling
industry. It is the most frequently specified and most widely used
flexible connector material. NEOPRENE offers air tight and waterproof
performance, has outstanding burst strength and excellent flex life and
aging characteristics. NEOPRENE resists many acids, alkalis, grease, oil
and gasoline, and a broad range of other chemicals. Please refer to the NEOPRENE has a base
fabric of woven Fiberglass which is double-coated with polychloroprene. It is supplied in coils of 30m (100 ft) of fabric
joined on both sides to galvanized steel, or as a fabric only for
special applications. |
RECOMMENDED USES
NEOPRENE is especially suited for use in high-pressure and high-velocity duct systems, and where exposed to toxic fumes or adverse atmospheric conditions. It is a dependable, tough product which may be used with confidence in general ventilation applications. NEOPRENE should not be used where temperature will exceed 90°C.
