Equipment Guide: Making a Value Connection with Flex Connectors

What flex connectors do: Flex connectors provide installation and operation flexibility within a fuel site’s piping systems.

How flex connectors work: Flex connectors feature a corrugated metal hose that is enclosed in a durable stainless steel wire braid. The connector’s strong-yet-flexible design enables the tube to bend. This feature allows piping to be connected to system components — such as sumps and shear valves — that are located in confined spaces. Machined of durable materials, flex connectors are engineered to be corrosion-resistant and to withstand high pressures. Flex connectors with quick clamp fittings install quickly and easily. Stainless steel styles are compatible with a wide range of current fuels and are likely to be compatible with future fuels and blends.
