Product Detail

APK Warm Air Ducting Tube is a flexible, lightweight duct hose designed for warm air transfer in diesel heater systems, vehicle air ducting, boats, caravans, machinery compartments and auxiliary heating installations. The APK construction combines an aluminum inner layer, a paper center layer and a plastic film outer layer to provide good flexibility, heat reflection and easy installation in confined spaces.

This APK warm air ducting tube is commonly used for heater air inlets, heater outlets, ventilation connections and warm air routing where a bendable duct is required. It can be cut to the required length, routed around equipment and connected to heater outlets, air boxes, vents or duct adapters.

Anhui Parker New Material Co., Ltd supplies APK ducting in multiple inside diameters from 6 mm to 140 mm. Custom length, packaging and alternative constructions are available for diesel heater suppliers, vehicle conversion companies, marine equipment distributors, HVAC component suppliers and industrial air ducting users.

Product Structure Aluminum inner layer + paper middle layer + plastic film outer layer
Working Temperature -40°C to +343°C depending on installation and operating conditions
Size Range ID 6 mm to 140 mm
Main Applications Diesel heaters, warm air ducting, boats, caravans, vehicles and machinery

What Is APK Warm Air Ducting Tube?

APK ducting is a three-layer warm air duct tube. In this construction, A refers to the aluminum heat-reflective layer, P refers to the paper layer, and K refers to the plastic film layer. The combination gives the duct hose a balance of flexibility, lightweight handling and heat resistance for warm air movement.

The aluminum layer helps reflect heat and supports warm air transfer. The paper layer gives structure and shape retention. The plastic outer layer improves handling and surface protection during installation. This structure is widely used in compact heating systems where the duct must bend, compress and pass through limited installation space.

Key Features

  • Flexible and bendable structure for compact installations.
  • Lightweight duct hose for warm air transfer.
  • Aluminum inner layer for heat reflection.
  • Paper middle layer for duct shape support.
  • Plastic film outer layer for surface protection.
  • Can be cut to custom length with common cutting tools.
  • Available in small and large diameters from 6 mm to 140 mm.
  • Suitable for heater inlet, heater outlet and air distribution systems.
  • Custom construction available for different temperature, flame resistance and application requirements.

Typical Applications

APK warm air ducting tube is used where warm air must be transferred from a heater, blower or ventilation unit to another location. It is especially suitable for applications requiring flexible routing and easy installation.

Application Function
Diesel heater air ducting Transfers warm air from the heater outlet to cabins, compartments or vehicle interiors.
Boats and marine heaters Used for flexible warm air routing in marine heating and ventilation systems.
Caravans and RVs Supports warm air distribution in compact vehicle heating layouts.
Vehicle air systems Used as flexible air ducting for heater, ventilation and auxiliary air transfer systems.
Industrial machinery Routes warm air, exhaust air or ventilation air around equipment and machine compartments.
Printing and copy machines Used for controlled air supply or exhaust in equipment ventilation systems.
Dryers and air exhaust systems Provides a flexible duct connection for warm air exhaust or air transfer.

Why Choose APK Construction?

APK construction is suitable when users need a practical warm air duct hose with good flexibility and easy handling. It is often selected for heater ducting because it can be compressed, bent and cut to the required length during installation.

  • Flexible routing: suitable for tight spaces, bends and compact heater layouts.
  • Lightweight installation: easy to handle during vehicle, boat or caravan assembly.
  • Good heat reflection: aluminum layer supports warm air transfer and thermal stability.
  • Custom supply: available by diameter, length and material construction.
  • Multiple grades: standard paper and fire-resistant paper options are available.

How to Select the Right Warm Air Ducting Tube

To select the correct warm air ducting tube, confirm the required inside diameter, heater outlet size, air temperature, bending route, installation space and flame resistance requirement. For diesel heater systems, the duct should match the heater outlet and air vent connection to reduce air leakage and installation problems.

Selection Factor Recommendation
Inside Diameter Match the heater outlet, air vent, adapter or connector size.
Temperature Choose the structure according to actual warm air temperature and installation distance from the heat source.
Flexibility Use APK or similar flexible construction for tight bends and compact routing.
Flame Resistance Select standard paper or fire-resistant paper according to safety and application requirements.
Installation Length Order custom cut length or full rolls depending on assembly and distribution needs.
Outer Surface Black outer film is suitable for clean appearance and handling protection.
