Ventilation ducting designed to deliver flexible, reliable runs for domestic extractors and dryers, Hon&Guan Flexible Air Ducting 100mm. Simplifies installations and gives confidence that joints will stay secure during everyday use. Is it the practical choice for DIYers and tradespeople tackling kitchen and laundry ventilation?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Flexibility: Built-in steel wire helix preserves shape while allowing tight bends and routing flexibility
- • Best for: DIYers and tradespeople installing cooker hoods, tumble dryers and extractor fans
- • Not ideal for: Applications that require rigid, fully insulated ductwork or flameproof certification
Multi-layer construction combines PET, aluminium foil and PVC with a steel wire helix. Inner diameter 108mm, outer diameter 110mm, and the hose can extend up to 5 metres for longer runs.
Easier fitting and secure joins – with a slightly larger outer diameter and included clamps
Outer diameter measures 110mm while the inner diameter is 108mm, intentionally oversize to slide onto 100mm spigots. Two stainless steel pipe clamps are supplied to clamp the hose down for a tight mechanical seal.
Sliding the duct over a 100mm connection is less fiddly, and tightening the clamps gives a reliable, leak-resistant joint for extractor and dryer installations.
Shape retention during bends – with a built-in steel wire helix
A steel wire helix runs through the hose wall to preserve the tube shape and prevent collapse when bent. The helix also lets the hose be bent freely to fit different angles without kinking.
The duct keeps an open airflow path even around tight corners, reducing the risk of trapped lint or reduced extraction performance.
Resistance to wear and temperature changes – thanks to multi-layer PET, aluminium foil and PVC construction
Construction uses one layer of PET, one layer of aluminium foil and one layer of PVC for combined flexibility, friction resistance and acid corrosion resistance. The stated operating temperature range is -30 to 85°C.
The material mix stands up to kitchen and laundry environments, so the hose should tolerate normal heat and moisture without rapid degradation.
✨ The 4 Key Reasons for Hon&Guan Flexible Air Ducting 100mm
- Two stainless steel pipe clamps, ensures secure, leak-resistant connections for extractor and dryer vents

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this fit a standard 100mm vent spigot?
A: Yes. The inner diameter is 108mm and the outer diameter is 110mm, intentionally slightly larger so the hose fits onto most 100mm interfaces and is easier to install.
Q: Can it be used with tumble dryers and cooker hoods?
A: Yes. Product descriptions list suitability for tumble dryers, cooker hoods, extractor fans and general ventilation systems.
Q: What operating temperatures and durability can I expect?
A: Construction of PET, aluminium foil and PVC gives friction and acid corrosion resistance, and the stated temperature range is -30 to 85°C.
🏆 Our Verdict
Ideal for DIYers and tradespeople who need a flexible, straightforward ventilation solution for domestic extractor and dryer runs. Multi-layer construction with a steel wire helix and included stainless steel clamps simplifies fitting while resisting wear and temperature swings. Robust materials and supplied fittings should reduce the need for early replacements, delivering reliable service over time.
