FLC Round Flange Flexible Connector | FDA Compliant Food-Grade PU Sleeves

$10.00
Food-Grade Polyurethane (PU) Flexible Connector for powder handling. Zero-leakage sealing for bulk solids, vibratory sifters, and pneumatic conveying. ATEX Anti-Static PU options available. Alternative to BFM fittings – no welding required.

Core Benefits: Why Choose FLC?

  • Superior Sealing: Integrated flanges with metal pressure plates lock tightly to equipment – ideal for zero-tolerance leak prevention in high-stakes processes.
  • Pressure-Resistant: Handles positive/negative pressure fluctuations better than hose clamps; mechanical stability for demanding pipelines.
  • FDA & EU Compliant: 100% virgin PU/PTFE materials meet FDA 21 CFR 177.2600, EU 10/2011, and EC 1935/2004 for food/pharma use.
  • Maintenance-Free: Perfect for fixed installations in drying, discharging, or conveying lines – supports CIP (Clean-in-Place).

Elongation at Break: 600% | Abrasion Resistance: <30mg (Taber Test) | Custom Sizes: Yes


Product Features

Compatible with standard round interfaces with built-in flanges at both ends

It is tightly connected by two flange pressure plates pressed in the middle

Suitable for high sealing reliability requirementsand equipment points that don't need to be disassembled frequently

Installation Instructions                

Fit the flange pressure plate on the flexible hose, then tighten the bolts at both ends in sequence to complete the installation.

Installation Guide

  1. Align FLC flanges with equipment bolt holes.
  2. Secure with metal pressure plates and bolts (torque per spec).
  3. No pipe modifications – fits standard round flanges.

Pro Tip: Use with BHC Strong Clamps for hybrid setups. Video demo available on request.


Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Is FLC CIP Safe for Clean-in-Place Flexible Bellows?

Yes. Clear polyurethane sleeves support CIP in food/pharma lines without residue buildup.

2. Best Pressure & Vacuum Resistant Option for Bulk Bag Filling Connectors?

PURF Fiber-Reinforced (300 MPa tensile) prevents ballooning/collapse in hoppers and bin dischargers.

3. Sanitary Snap-in Sleeves Alternative for Jacob Tubing Compatible Connectors?

FLC flanges offer superior dust-tight sealing over snap-on types – vibratory sifter sleeves optimized.

4. Can FLC Replace BFM Systems?

Yes, cost-effectively. For existing flanged equipment, FLC provides equivalent performance without BFM spigots.

5. Custom Sizes for Powder Handling Connectors?

Provide pipe OD, flange pitch, and gap – we customize diameters/lengths in 24-48h.

6. ATEX Compliance for Explosive Powders?

PUAS Anti-Static PU (<10⁶ Ω) prevents static buildup in sugar/starch/chemical lines.
