Deflecto Semi Rigid Aluminum Duct, Non-Crimped, Silver, 6” x 8’ (A068/4-A)

I used this for a short run from a bathroom vent fan to exhaust out an attic vent. Yes its cheap, in fact they staple a tag to one end of it. Its no different than working with cheap flexible dryer vents. You have to stretch it out slowly and evenly. I pulled one way, then the other over my knee to avoid putting too much stress in one place. I have some doubts you would make a full 8 foot with this but I only needed 6 and didn't push it. It fit fairly easily over the 6" outlet on my fan and stayed there about as securely as i could hope for considering there was no clamps involved. Summary: It's cheap, and that's what i wanted. I was careful and had zero issues. Good buy.

Just gotta state that this is by far the best semi-rigid aluminum duct pipe i had ever purchased. Needed a sturdy, but flexible piping that can go right through my 6" concrete wall after drilling for a day or so and to my surprise, it was almost a perfect fit!. Will be doing another project and will surely purchase another one if needed.In my opinion, completely satisfied with the price and delivery was fast & item came undamaged, a huge plus.Overall, i would recommend it, it is so versatile.

This is very similar to the typical flexible dryer hoses that most people have. It is not heavy duty, but it is nice and flexible so you can work it around in tight areas. It should get the job done, if you are just looking for a cheap vent hose for your dryer or bathroom vent. If you want something higher quality, you'll need to spend more than 8 bucks!

Used on my gas dryer, this product replaces an old 'disintegrating' plastic vent hose, (which should never have been used on a hot exhaust appliance in the first place). If you have to cut it, be advised that it will helically tear if you're not careful. I was concerned about its' crush factor, but the sidewalls hold up well and it will bend around tight corners without crimping. I use high temp HVAC aluminum foil tape rather than hose clamps to secure the ends. I would not hesitate to purchase this again and recommend it as a safer way to vent hot dryer exhaust.

This is exactly what you expect it to be. High quality, strong, rigid, yet you can bend it. You can't do sharp turns, but that's expected. A little hard to work with due to it being so rigid, but that's the nature of this kind of product. You'll have no issues with this.

Great fit my application. The material is fragile but the same thing at the Home repair store was twice the price! So,,,, score one domestic goddess!

This vent hose is very weak. So thin you have to be careful not to put your fingers through it. Not worth the money. Stick with the rubber coated hose. Much better.

This flexible duct is well made & sturdy. However, the ID (inside diameter) did not fit over a 6" exhaust hood vent. It needed to be cut to fit over it.
