AMFLEXTM Forced Ventilation Ducting Wire Reinforced Ducting
AMFLEXTM wire re-inforced ducting can be used for exhaust or reversible ventilation systems. The ducting can be supplied in flame retardant or anti-static PVC coated materials of varying strengths to meet each customer's specification.

AMFLEX TM Exhaust Ventilation Ducting
AMFLEX TM forced ventilation ducting can be made to any specification depending on the fabric used. Standard, Heavy Duty and Extra Heavy Duty PVC coated with flame retardant and anti static properties can be supplied.

AMFLEX TM Ducting Cassettes
Due to the increase in machine driven roadways and the need for more efficient ventilation systems, Amco Plastics have produced a cassette to accomodate 100 metre lengths of ventilation ducting as standard. The cassette is mounted behind the tunnel boring machine or road header and the ducting is automatically fed from the back as the machine advances. With less joints in the ventilation ducting line, leakage is reduced and more air can be delivered or a less powerful fan can be used.

AMFLEX TM Lightweight GRP Duct Holders
The AMFLEXTM GRP Duct holder has been specially designed to meet the needs of fast advancing headings where reduced handling and downtime are essential.

AMFLEX TMCavity Filling Bags
Amco Plastics Ltd, in conjunction with other users and grout manufacturers, has developed a new method of construction for use in tunnels and mining.

AMFLEX TM Roadway Sealing Bags
AMFLEXTM Roadway Sealing Bags are the result of years of development to produce a truly self supporting bag that can fully utilise the potential foaming cements and monolithic packing materials to produce an effective seal in a roadway of any shape or dimension.

AMFLEX TM Gate Side Pack Bags
AMFLEXTM Gate Side Packs have been developed for use with the fast setting system of pumped monolithic gate side packs. This packing system was developed by British Mining and offers immediate support and sealing of gate sides with a material that is up to 90% (by volume) water and only 10% imported cementaceous material.

AMFLEX TM Strata Tube
The load that a roadway support arch is capable of carrying without deformation, when spread over its entire circumference, is twelve times that which can be carried on a sinlge point load. AMFLEXTM strata tubes have been developed to provide a convenient method of ensuring that the load is spread by filling the space between the arch and the excavated strata with a yielding grout.

AMFLEX TM Silencers
AMFLEXTM Silencers have been designed to meet the need for a low cost, replaceable unit that can easily be installed in most tunnelling, mining and industrial applications.
