I’m using that product as an ‘all purpose’ type of thing (non permanent machines plus work bench vacuuming). I also have some 4” flex that I add to the end to do my floor. It’s quite a good product.

Anyone deciding on flexy may want to look at this
Air flow calibration measurements
In general the stiffer the flexy the better.
Even though I haven't tested it this would put the soft foil type flexy towards the "back of the pack ".

Try Advanced Duct Systems. They do a flexible pipe in lots of sizes. I used 160mm as it fits snuggly on the outside of the 150 mm pvc pipe.

And being slightly larger will make up a bit for the fact that flexy is more restrictive than solid ducting. Originally Posted by Lappa

It worked for me.
Moved the twin 4” splitters a metre from the fan inlet.
Couldn’t comment on technical stuff but airflow seems heaps better than previous.
Cheers crowie
