Additional Features and Benefits:

• U-Type, are integrally flanged non-metallic connector is found in most fan and blower applications where standard movements are required and where vibration and sound absorption is needed.
• Arch-Type, are integrally flanged non-metallic connector is found in applciations where large movements and short overall lengths are required. The Style 530 is designed with a high profile molded arch, giving it exceptional movement capabilities.
• W-Type, are integrally flanged non-metallic connector is found in applications where large movements are required. W type are designed with a molded radius allowing for maximum movement capability.
• Navy Fan Connectors.  Integrally flanged non-metallic connectors are manufactured using 3/16" thick polyester fabric reinforced neoprene MIL-R- 6855, Class 2, Durometer 40. The Navy Fan Connectors can be manufactured in U-Type or Arch-Type configurations depending upon application requirements.
