FLEXSEAL™ ENDS (Beaded Ends)
Flexseal Ends are designed to be used where
hose must be joined to another hose or pipe for
carrying acids and other chemicals, abrasive
materials and fluids that must be kept
uncontaminated by metals. Hose I.D. is
unrestricted. O.D. end is flared out by building
the reinforcement and rubber around an angle
steel ring and extending the tube out and over
the enlargement. Around each end, behind the
flare, a split flange is used with either 150 lb. or
300 lb. drilling. To join two Flexseal Ends, they
are aligned without twisting the hose. Bolts are
inserted and drawn tight. This compresses the
rubber hose ends together making a leakproof
seal. No gasket is required. Beaded end.

FLEXSEAL™ CONNECTORS
Flexseal Connectors allow full flow in the
pipeline. Designed for working pressures from
50 to 100 psi, depending on the inside diameter
of the connector. The natural rubber tube is
abrasion and acid resistant. No metal touches
the material being carried. Flexseal is available
with or without wire reinforcement. The
wire-reinforced type has a helix(es) of steel wire
buried in the hose to keep it from collapsing
under full suction. Used in both suction and
discharge services. Non wire-reinforced type
only recommended for pinch-valve or discharge
service, where material handled cakes in the
tube. Split flanges are drilled to bolt companion
standard flat-face flanges. They provide a tight
seal without a gasket. Since the flanges rotate
freely, alignment of the bolts is easy, thus
reducing installation time to a minimum. Service
involving operating temperatures over 150°F
should be reviewed with Salisbury. Flexseal
Connectors are short lengths of hose for joining
metal piping, thereby putting non-rigid couplings
into the lines. Made of thick flexible rubber, they
absorb vibrations and prevent the transmission
of noise and damaging vibrations through the
metal pipes. As a result, pumps, controls, valves
and other equipment have longer life.
