For Resin Feed and Vacuum Line Connections
The connector sits inside the vacuum bag and accepts a 12mm OD vacuum hose and has a slot underneath to feed into the resin infusion spiral.
On the underside of the connector is a 4-way channel that ensures a good air channel for the vacuum line into the project or alternatively a good flow of resin into the infusion spiral.
These infusion connectors are re-usable and can be removed from the cured laminate and resin once and infusion is complete and used again. When used with epoxy resin the connectors will have a finite lifespan and over time the epoxy will start to perish the connectors whereupon they will need replacing. For this reason we offer excellent volume discounts for connectors purchased as 10 or more or even 50 or more at a time.
Polyester and vinylester resins do not perish the connector in the same way that epoxy does and so the lifespan of the connector when used with these resin systems is considerably longer.
