FLEXIBLE
CONNECTORS
Since their introduction in 1995, FLEX-ING® FIREFLEX
Flexible Connectors have quickly become the industry
standard and benchmark for quality as a means to easily
connect pipework system to other systems components such
as submersible pumps or shear valves. They have quickly
become an integral part of any installation. Installers love
their ease of installation while station owners have come to
depend on their durability and how easy they make regular
maintenance. With tons of available options, Franklin Fueling
Systems has the right connector to fit any application.

•
Standard on all flexible connectors, the stainless steel
corrugated fuel contact layers feature a thick construction
and gain flexibility from having more corrugations per foot
rather than thinner walls.
Enclosing the corrugated fuel contact layer is a stainless
steel braid that is manufactured from only high-grade
stainless steel.
•
Standard end fittings are nickel plated steel with stainless
steel construction options available on any flexible
connector that does not include a swivel end fitting.
•
Available in a multitude of end connections to ensure the
right fit for any application–including tees, elbows, and
fiberglass transitions.

All metal construction means one flexible connector for
both above and below ground applications (may not be
direct buried).
