flexible

Flexible electronics, also known as flex circuits, is a technology for assembling electronic circuits by mounting electronic devices on flexible plastic substrates, such as polyimide, PEEK or transparent conductive polyester film. Additionally, flex circuits can be screen printed silver circuits on polyester. Flexible electronic assemblies may be manufactured using identical components used for rigid printed circuit boards, allowing the board to conform to a desired shape, or to flex during its use.

    How flexible is 22mm Hep2o pipe?

    Are the 3m straight lengths of 22mm pipe as flexible as the coiled pipe e.g. can I take it around corners without adding 90 degree elbows? The shortest coil of 22mm Hep2o barrier pipe is 25m long which is much more than I need.

    Flexible Connection to Hob

    I have often read that you cannot connect a hob with a flexible connection under Gas Safe rules and regs. I was also told this by my gas fitter. Just in case you are not aware there is now a way, albeit a "semi-rigid" pipe, but to all intense and purposes it is a flexible. See Screwfix part...

    Flexible hoses and electrical continuity

    My understanding is these don't provide elec continuity. But which part of them breaks the continuity? And do all of them fail to provide it or will some do so? Thanks

    Flexible hose... are these a requirement?

    Hi folks, I have a standard flexible hose (the braided ones) coming off my cold and hot feed to the kitchen taps, and also one to the outside tap. I'm curious... do these need to be the flexible hose? Why not just a flexi plastic pipe with some speedy fittings? Does anything gong to a tap need...
