Approved and used by the FAA and Military
Skyflex
Conduit for
radial engines. Approved by both the FAA and U.S. military, these leads
feature brass fittings and a rugged neoprene covering molded onto a brass
conduit, which is cut to fit your radial engine.
Skyflex
Conduits features:
- All conduit
jackets made of genuine, molded neoprene.
- Assembled
conduits are subjected to high pressures to insure tightness against
air and moisture.
- To form a
solid, ruggedized bond to and into the braid of the conduit,
neoprene jackets are pressure molded.
- All nuts are
made of plain finish, precision threaded brass entirely free of tool
marks.
- Brass,
chamfered ferrules are soldered onto the conduit with high
temperature solder to insure an unbreakable bond and leave a
clearance of 1/16" at the top of the ferrule. This clearance
permits rubber to flow under the ferrule during the molding process,
an exclusive Skyflex feature! In addition, ferrules are deeper to
allow for a greater soldering surface.
Skyflex Neoprene:
The
special neoprene covering employed on Skyflex conduits, (as opposed to
ordinary AMS compounds used by other manufacturers) is a proven, tested
compound which took many months to develop. The basic difference is that
Skyflex neoprene uses a small quantity of chemical additives, in place of
the usual paraffin to produce O-Zone resistance. Result? Within a given
mass of compound, there is always more pure neoprene in the Skyflex
jacket, hence less weather checking, longer life!
