August 18Aug 18 Has anyone got experience with corrugated stainless flexis for water plumbing? They look to solve a lot to the issues with the standard rubber + braided stainless flexi: Improved bore size No kink No perishable rubber tubing https://ridgelinetubes.com/flexis/ https://www.monsterplumb.co.uk/ridgeline-flexible-connectors Ridgeline even sell the pipe to do your whole system in corrugated stainless. I think I have only seen this sort of thing in gas connections before, but I might be mistaken. Edited August 18Aug 18 by MortarThePoint
August 18Aug 18 They look good. I guess that at about £5 each, they won't feature for most plumbers or builders, but may work for high end projects and self build. I think tracpipe gas pipe is a bit like this, but it has a plastic outer sheath.
Just now1 min I've used them on a couple of basin and toilet feeds and they do hold up well. The bore helps where a braided hose would choke the flow a bit, and they don't kink in tight corners. Just don't force a tight bend, let it sweep round naturally.
