What is it?
The Hoses are used to add flexibility to the installation and service of the HVAC coil and the coil kit components.
Comes with one MNPT fixed end and one MNPT Swivel end in sizes ½" - 2".

Stainless Steel Hose
• Easy installation and serviceability
• Superior abrasion resistant properties from the 302/304 stainless steel wire braid
• The permanently installed (crimped) end fittings eliminate the possibility of bands or clamps loosening and creating leaks
• UL -94 Fire rated
• Custom made sizes available - 6 inch minimum lengths

How does it work?
Adjusts to the different space constraints with the ability to bend without compromising the flow rate going to the coil.
Why use it?
The flexibility of the hoses makes installation and serviceability in tight or limited space constraints a non-issue
