The Hypalon it is a rubber, high-strength whose disadvantage is that there can be welded with heat such as PVC. That's why we mentioned the added complexity that involves the manufacture of a tender or semi-rigid with Hypalon. From there, to the user, all are advantages. It is a material that is kept in good condition for a longer time, have a high resistance to UV rays, salt and moisture.
