Product description

The THERMOFLEX RI product family is based on silicone-impregnated E-glass fibres that can withstand high temperatures as well as chemical and mechanical loads. The RI, RI Marder, RI Duo and RI Stretchable variants cover different requirements – from flexible pipe protection to double-walled marten defence.

Whether in e-mobility, vehicle technology or commercial vehicle construction, these hoses offer reliable protection in demanding environments.

They are flame-retardant in accordance with FMVSS 302, fulfil the requirements of LV 312-3 and are designed for continuous temperatures from -40 °C to +275 °C.
