Metal Hose by UNAFLEX®

UNAFLEX® manufactures metal hose. We offer a complete line of annular metal hose in many different sizes, alloys and configurations. Our Matchless metal hose is ideal for absorbing vibration, misalignment, piping expansion or contraction and equipment motion. Braiding enables use at high pressures and also attenuates vibration. Each annular corrugation is a separate element engineered to impart optimal flexibility for each size of hose that we offer.
