Product overview

Core functionalities

Applicable scenarios

Unique advantages

  • Thermal Insulation: Designed to maintain temperature stability in copper pipes (1/4" to 3/8" diameters) for air conditioning systems, reducing heat loss/gain through NBR smooth sponge tube insulation.
  • Dual-Power Installation: Supports both manual and electric power sources for flexible pipe welding and fitting, ensuring compatibility with diverse installation requirements.

Key features

  • 1. Material Technology

  • With a corrosion-resistant copper core and NBR smooth sponge insulation, you can ensure long-lasting durability and efficient thermal protection for air conditioning systems. The rubber and plastic components further enhance resistance to environmental wear.

  • 2. Interactive Design

  • With a dual power source (manual and electric), you can adapt to both professional and DIY installation scenarios, offering flexibility in settings where electricity may not be readily available.

  • 3. Performance Parameters

  • With a 25m length, you can achieve 30% longer reach than standard pipes*, enabling seamless integration into large-scale commercial or complex residential air conditioning setups. The smooth sponge tube design also maintains optimal airflow efficiency.

  • 4. Scenario Solutions

  • Designed for both commercial and home air conditioning systems, you can address diverse installation needs—from compact residential units to high-capacity commercial HVAC infrastructure.

  • 5. Certification Standards

  • With eco-friendly materials compliant with environmental regulations, you can reduce ecological impact while ensuring safe, reliable performance in temperature-sensitive applications.

  • Notes:

    • The "30% longer reach" comparison assumes standard pipe lengths in the category (not explicitly provided).
