ClearFlex Sleeve

Weigh hopper connector blockage eliminated

“Weigh hopper connectors have always caused me a lot of grief.  I’m really pleased that we tried ClearFlex as it has proven ideal for the job.  The fact it’s waterproof means it doesn’t block up, it’s really lightweight and strong, and being transparent means we can see product flow which makes everyone’s life easier.”

Canvas flexible sleeves connecting a cement weigh hopper were causing frustrating problems and excessive maintenance. The canvas material absorbed moisture leading to cement build up and blockage. Replacement was difficult, time consuming and caused interuptions to production.
