The Flexi-Light Connector is made from an ether based polyurethane with a lighter 316 stainless steel wire coil than our standard Flexi, making it ideal for applications with lateral and vertical movement.
The Seeflex walls are also slightly thinner and the coil is much more flexible making it perfect for weigh-scale type applications, as it provides less resistance than our standard Flexi.
Complies with:
FDA CFR 177.1680, 21 CFR 175.105 (adhesives) and 177.2600. (EC) 1935/2004, 2023–2006, 2002/72/EC, USDA & 3A (20–27).
Key features/uses:
-
Very lightweight and flexible, CIP safe
-
Has compression ratio of approx. 3:1
-
Used for weigh-scale applications, bag feeders and for applications with irregular movement.

Most common questions
The Flexi-Light has a .4mm wall thickness while the Flexi-Connector has a .6mm thickness for smaller diameter (100-200mm) applications. The coil diameter is also reduced from 2.6mm. to 1.6mm. The reduced wall thickness and smaller coil size lowers the rigidity and weight of the unit allowing for more flexibility.
