Braided Hose Assemblies
Keflex™ Braided Hose Assemblies are engineered for vibration absorption and stress reduction in HVAC, mechanical, and industrial piping systems. Each connector features 300-Series stainless steel annular corrugated hose encased in a high-tensile stainless steel wire braid, providing corrosion resistance, flexibility, and long service life.
Available in custom lengths, single or double braid configurations, and a variety of end fittings (groove, weld, or threaded), these connectors are built to order for pressure, movement, and installation requirements. Designed and manufactured in the USA, Keflex™ Gold and Silver Series connectors deliver dependable performance and reliability where system protection matters most.
