Medium-Weight Polyurethane Hose in Metric Sizes for Dust Collection, Food Grade, and Industrial Applications

The Flx-Thane MD Metric Clear is the metric-sized version of the Flx-Thane MD Clear, built for equipment and systems that use metric bore specifications. Same medium-weight polyurethane construction, same bronze-coated spring steel wire helix, same clear walls for content visibility. If your machinery specs call for metric ID sizing, this is the hose to match.

Manufactured with FDA-acceptable materials, this hose works across food-grade powder and granular transport, industrial dust collection, CNC machining, agricultural material handling, and dozens of other applications. Many sizes available.

Same Performance, Metric Fit

The MD Metric Clear delivers the same flexibility, abrasion resistance, and chemical resistance as the standard MD Clear across the full range of applications — from woodshop dust collection and food processing to concrete transport, paint spray extraction, and aerospace support. The metric sizing ensures proper fitment with European and international-standard equipment without adapters or compromises in seal integrity.

For heavier-duty applications, consider the Flx-Thane HD. For standard imperial sizing, see the Flx-Thane MD Clear.

Flx-Thane® MD Polyurethane Dust Collection Hose is highly flexible, compressible, and puncture resistant to stand up to the toughest wood chips and sawdust. Clear for easy contents viewing, this robust polyurethane hose is reinforced with a bronze coated spring steel wire helix and is available in 2 to 12" (50.8 to 304.8 mm) I.D. sizes in 6 to 50 ft lengths for hose 4", 6", and 8" I.D.s.
