Flexible Pipes
Dinex uses and integrates the highest quality of interlock flex pipes available on the market.

Flexible pipes are used in exhaust systems to absorb engine vibrations, engine movement and heat expansion.

Dinex flexible pipes are supplied in various dimensions as an integrated part of an exhaust pipe or as a separate unit connected with clamps.
Dinex also offers flexible pipes in a wide range of dimensions (Ø25 – Ø200 mm) and in three standard material configurations. Please refer to the Dinex data sheet concerning Flex pipes.

Installation and use of flexible pipes are of crucial importance for the durability and functionality of the flexible unit.

Flexible pipes are designed to absorb mainly lateral and angular movements. It is not recommended to use flexible pipes to absorb torsional movement.

In order to maximise longevity of any flexible installations, it is recommended to follow the installation guidelines. These imply that any flexible connection will, depending on the actual movements to absorb, be in the area of 2-3 times the diameter of the flex/pipe work.

Please note that a flexible pipe can be extended approx. 25%, and the mid position is half of the extension (12.5%).

The flex connection must be located in a mid position allowing the interlock structure to move equally in both lateral directions.
