Flexible Connectors
Flexible Connectors
FLEX-ING™ flexible connectors have become the industry standard and benchmark for quality as a means to easily connect a pipework system to other system components such as submersible pumps or shear valves. As an integral part of any system, installers enjoy how easy they make connections in tight spaces while station owners have come to depend on their durability and their simplification of regular maintenance.
FLEXIBILITY IS KEY
The tight working conditions found in dispenser and tank sumps provide little room for installers to work, motivating some manufacturers of flexible connectors to sacrifice overall strength for flexibility. With FLEX-ING™ flexible connectors, there’s no need to compromise. Their corrugated fuel contact layers feature a 25% thicker metal construction and gain flexibility from having more corrugations per foot rather than thinner walls.
General
- USA NFPA 30-A fire rated
- All metal construction means one flexible connector for both above and below ground applications
- An 18-8 alloy with titanium, 321 Stainless Steel inner core provides a long service life
- Thick, schedule 80 hex end fittings protect against deformation of the ends
- 100% pressure tested to assure quality
- UL 2039 and CAN/ULC-S633 listed for 50psi working pressure
- EZ FIT clamp and gasket are included with each assembly
Approvals/Certifications
- UL Only those fuels formulated in accordance with 40CFR80, “Regulation of Fuels and Fuel Additives,” and meeting the following ASTM fuel specifications and blend limits:
- Diesel with or without biodiesel blends up to 5% (B5)

Ordering Options Diagram
Use these diagrams below along with the Ordering Guide at the bottom of the page to help you build your flexible connector model numbers.
Ordering Guide
Complete flexible connector model numbers have a specific order and are created
using the following guidelines. Use the diagrams and table to build a model number.
AA BB X CC DDDD X E FFFF
- AA = Product Type
- FF = FLEX-ING™ flexible connector.
- BB = Hose Diameter
- 07 = ¾"
- 10 = 1"
- 15 = 1½"
- 20 = 2"
- 30 = 3"
- 40 = 4"
- CC = Overall Length in Inches
- Use two-digit format: 06 = 6", 24 = 24", etc. Maximum length of 108".
- DDDD = End Fitting First End
- Use End Fitting Options below.
- E = End Fitting Second End if Alternating Diameter (optional)
- Optional: Second end fitting alternate diameter. Only one end can be a different size than the hose diamter and it can only be one size larger than hose diameter.
- FFFF = End Fitting Second End
- Use End Fitting Options below.
Example:
FF20X18EZMX15HM = Flexible connector with 2" hose diameter, 18" overall length,
one 2" EZ fit male NPT end fitting, and one 1½" Hex male fixed end fitting.
