Serpent ventilation ducting
PVC-coated ducts in a variety of lengths and diameters
To fit your needs, Epiroc offers two types of PVC-coated ducts in a variety of lengths and diameters.
- The optimal ducts for standard installations are made of a lightweight, yet very durable material.
- For installations with high-pressure requirements, we can supply a thicker, extremely tough fabric.
Both duct types can be delivered with or without anti-static performance. All Serpent ducting has low internal friction to reduce energy consumption and lower operational cost.
