    Eliminate the need for hose clips/clamps with BFM™'s patented fiting technology. BFM™ tank fittings are cleaner, safer, lasts much longer than a standard fabric and hoseclip fitting and can be replaced quickly and easily with NO TOOLS REQUIRED.

    How it works

    The Patented BFM™ fitting is comprised of two elements - the standardised BFM™ Spigot and a suitable flexible connector. This tank fitting system solves many of the problems experienced with a standard hose-clamped flexible connector.

    The Benefits

    BFM™ tank fittings offer a wide range of benefits over hose-clamped connectors. Some of these are outlined below:

    Hygiene

    Product building up between the flexible connector and the sidewall of the spigot

    		 No crevices for product to get caught in.
    Sizing
    		 From inaccuracies in measuring onsite through to production, it can be very difficult to get a perfect fit of a hose clamped connector. PERFECT fit every time
    Fitting
    		 Both the speed and accuracy of fitting hose clamps can vary widely and often clamps are not fitted correctly. Can only fit in exactly the correct place, i.e. in or out.
    Explosion
    		 In an overpressure situation hose clamps are normally always the weakest link and give up or let go long before the flexible connector would be due to rupture. Only seals tighter under high pressures.
    Standard Sizes
    		Current flexible connectors are made any size whatsoever, hence there are thousands of different sizes. Set standard sizes in 50mm increments helps standardise stock holdings of spare parts.
    Health & Safety
    		When using screwdrivers to tighten up hoseclips, damage is common to the flexible connector and even the installers hands. Tool free connector changing, simply snap in with your hands.
