Carbatec TPU Flex Dust Hose Copper Helix 4" x 2m
This Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) Dust Extraction Hose is designed for demanding workshop and industrial environments where flexibility, durability, and consistent airflow are essential. Manufactured from high-quality TPU with a 0.6 mm wall thickness, it features an embedded copper wire helix that provides excellent shape retention, structural support, and grounding continuity.
TPU is widely used in industrial hose applications due to its superior resistance to abrasion, tearing, and repeated flexing, making this hose ideal for workshops where ducting is frequently moved or repositioned, including over concrete or unfinished floors. Compared to many PVC or polyethylene hoses, TPU typically offers a smoother internal bore with a lower coefficient of friction, helping to reduce turbulence and maintain airflow efficiency, particularly in longer runs or systems with multiple connections.
Unlike flexible plastics that rely on added plasticisers, TPU retains its elasticity as part of its base polymer structure. This helps minimise the risk of stiffening or cracking over time, even in applications involving constant movement or vibration. The integrated copper wire running the full length of the hose allows it to be earthed as part of a compliant extraction system, reducing the build-up of static electricity.
Suitable for use with CNC machines, planers, thicknessers, and general workshop dust extraction systems, this hose offers a well-balanced combination of flexibility, strength, and performance.
