Aluminium Air Ducting

Our Aluminium Air Ducting is a versatile lineup designed to optimize air ventilation with precision and durability. Dive into innovation with our semi-flexible Aluminium Ducting and PVC-Aluminium Flexible Ducting, providing tailored solutions for a range of applications.

Experience the best of both worlds with our Semi-Flexible Aluminium Ducting – a robust and adaptable choice that combines the strength of aluminium with flexibility. Ideal for navigating tight spaces and bends, this ducting ensures efficient airflow while maintaining structural integrity.

What is semi-rigid aluminium ducting?
Flexible aluminium ducting that holds its shape once positioned - you bend it to the route you need and it stays there, rather than needing supporting along its length. It is used in heating, ventilation and air conditioning work, and for moderate-temperature extraction.

What sizes and lengths do you stock?
76mm, 102mm, 125mm and 150mm internal diameter, in 2 and 4 metre lengths. Order by internal diameter to match the spigot or outlet it slides over. Those four sizes cover the great majority of domestic and light commercial HVAC and extraction work.

What temperature will it take?
-30C to +150C, and it is manufactured to EN 13501-1, the European fire classification standard for building materials. That temperature range is well beyond PVC or polyurethane ducting, which is the main reason to choose it over a cheaper plastic duct.

Where is it typically used?
HVAC runs, cooker hood and bathroom extraction, warm air distribution, and vehicle and workshop ventilation where the air is warm but not hot. For genuinely hot air - engine exhaust, process air above 150C - you need silicone glass fibre ducting at -70C to +310C instead.

How do I cut it?
Snips or tin snips, cutting carefully round the profile. Wear gloves - cut aluminium ducting leaves sharp edges that will find your hands. Dress the cut end before fitting so it cannot cut into a seal or catch on anything during installation.

How do I connect it?
Slide it over the spigot and secure with a worm drive clip or a ducting clamp, and seal the joint with duct tape if the system needs to be airtight. Because it is semi-rigid it holds position at the joint while you fit the clamp, which makes installation considerably easier than with a floppy duct.
