Good

flexVAC™ 180 STAR

Heavy-duty abrasion resistant suction and discharge hose

flexVAC™ 180 STAR combines abrasion-resistant SBR construction, static-dissipating carbon black and a copper grounding wire for demanding dry-material handling.

Better

flexVAC™ lite U Boom ST

Medium-duty wet & dry material remote hose with grounding wire

flexVAC™ lite U Boom ST provides a polyurethane liner, static-dissipating construction and a copper grounding wire for abrasive recovery. It is the lighter boom-hose option and is not food grade.

Best

flexVAC™ U Boom ST

Heavy-duty abrasion resistant wet and dry material handling hose

flexVAC™ U Boom ST is the heavy polyurethane-lined boom hose for demanding wet and dry abrasive recovery. Its static-dissipating construction and copper grounding wire support the defined severe-duty role. It is not food grade.

Alternatives

flexVAC™ 180 STAR

Heavy-duty abrasion resistant suction and discharge hose

Use for: Grounded dry cement transfer within its pressure rating.

flexVAC™ 180 STAR combines abrasion-resistant SBR construction, static-dissipating carbon black and a copper grounding wire for demanding dry-material handling. Its pressure rating must meet the actual conveying duty; use the reinforced alternative when that duty requires it.

flexFORCE™ U Food Grade

Reinforced urethane food hose

Use for: Reinforced pressure conveying.

flexFORCE™ U Food Grade combines a food-contact polyurethane liner, synthetic reinforcement, static-dissipating construction and a copper grounding wire. It is the reinforced option for qualified abrasive-material and pressure service.

Notes: The main progression is limited to low-pressure cement transfer within all listed boom-hose ratings. Reinforced higher-pressure service is separate.

The low-pressure boom progression is not a general high-pressure cement-hose specification. Pressure, temperature and grounding must qualify each product for the application.
