Airwise Semi-Rigid Aluminium Duct 150mm 3m
The Airwise AWSR150X3 is a 150mm diameter, 3-metre length of semi-rigid aluminium ventilation duct. Semi-rigid duct bridges the gap between standard flexible foil duct and rigid PVC or galvanised pipe - it is considerably stronger and more crush-resistant than plain aluminium flex yet can be bent by hand to navigate joists, beams, and other building obstacles, holding the formed shape permanently. The smooth, seamless inner bore keeps pressure drop low, and the duct connects to both round and oval duct systems without specialist tools. Supplied compressed to approximately 0.6m, it extends to the full 3m on site.

Construction
Hand-Bendable
Shape-Retaining
Semi-Rigid vs Standard Flex: Standard aluminium foil flex is lightweight but easily crushed and does not hold bends. Semi-rigid duct holds any bend formed by hand - making it suitable for installations where the duct passes through or behind structures that could compress plain flex, and for runs where the duct needs to hold a specific routing shape long-term.
Install at Full Extended Length: Always extend semi-rigid duct to close to its natural fully-extended length before fixing in position. A partially compressed section dramatically increases pressure drop and can reduce extract rates below Part F minimums. Avoid tight bends - minimum bend radius should equal the duct diameter.
Key Features
Stronger Than Standard Aluminium Flex
The aluminium/polyester laminated construction is significantly more rigid and crush-resistant than single-layer plain foil flexible duct - retaining its circular cross-section under normal installation loads and incidental contact after installation.
Hand-Formed Shape Retention
The semi-rigid body can be bent by hand to navigate around structural obstacles - joists, beams, wall plates, and purlins - holding the formed angle permanently for a stable, professional installation.
Smooth Seamless Inner Surface
The seamless inner bore reduces turbulence and keeps pressure drop lower than corrugated flexible duct over the same run length - supporting adequate extract rates in longer flexible sections.
Connects to Round and Oval Duct
Compatible with both standard 150mm round duct fittings and 220×90mm oval duct systems, making it versatile across mixed-format ventilation installations.
3m Compressed to 0.6m
Compresses to just 0.6m for easy transport through access hatches and loft ladders, extending to the full 3m on-site without tools.
Cut to Length Without Special Tools
Can be trimmed to any required length using tin snips, a hacksaw, or a utility knife - minimising waste and reducing on-site tool requirements.
