Default Looking for small flex pipes for 2.5"

I keep seeing real small flex pipe connections on this site but can't seem to find a supplier. We are trying to make a "flexible" connection with a 2.5" pipe and are really cramped for room. I have some ones but they are over 6" long. The ones I have seen look like they are less then 4". One style looks like accordians and the other is the traditional mesh type.

Thanks

Howard

Mine was 4" of actual flex material, and I got it at the local NAPA. Have not idea what the part # is though.

I think stainless works has them. I just use the one's from Summit and cut the ends off.

I don't think the NAPA ones are going to be 304 stainless. I ordered a couple from SW which are longer then I wanted. If I need to I'll make them work. I've seen the ones I want just can't seem to find the supplier!

Slow, which ones are you modifying?
