VIP PN16 Flanged Untied Nitrile Rubber Flexible Connectors
Key Information
VIP PN16 Nitrile Rubber Flexible Connectors are engineered to absorb vibration, reduce noise transmission, and protect pipework from mechanical stress in demanding pump and equipment installations. Manufactured with a durable nitrile rubber inner layer and reinforced nylon construction, these connectors are ideal for oil-based fluids, hydraulic systems, and petroleum applications where reliability and flexibility are critical. Designed for PN16 flanged connections to BS4504 standards, they offer dependable performance across a wide operating range while helping extend the lifespan of connected equipment and pipeline systems.
*Please note: VIP Rubber Pump Flexibles should not be used at both their maximum working temperature and pressure simultaneously.
