Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Omega Flex, Inc. is filing this Form SD pursuant to Rule 13p-1 under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 for the reporting period from January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020. Definitions of capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Conflict Minerals Disclosure shall have the meaning defined in the SEC rules. We do not use any Conflict Minerals in manufacturing products, except for tin, which is used in creating bronze alloy that is used in some of our products.

We have reasonably designed and conducted in good faith a reasonable country-of-origin inquiry (“RCOI”) on the source of any Conflict Minerals incorporated into our products that we manufacture or contract to manufacture. Our RCOI was reasonably designed to determine whether tin contained in certain of our products originated from the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country, or was from recycled or scrap sources.

Based on our RCOI, we have no reason to believe that any Conflict Minerals incorporated into our products originated in the Covered Countries.

We have determined that tin was contained in bronze strip that is used to manufacture bronze hose products. The materials certification of the bronze strip indicated that tin comprised 4.7% of the material composition. For the bronze strip that we use to manufacture bronze hose products, we conducted an RCOI and solicited information from our bronze strip providers as to the source and origin of tin that was incorporated into the bronze strip. We requested that the supplier disclose if Conflict Minerals are contained in the products sold to us originated in the Covered Countries, and to provide a list of the smelters that processed the Conflict Minerals contained in the products sold to us.

In response to our RCOI, each of the suppliers returned a certification stating that the Conflict Minerals contained in the products supplied to us originated from post-industrial or post-consumer scrap and some material is sourced by virgin ingot. In addition to certifications, one supplier referenced its own Conflict Minerals policy that prohibit the sourcing of Conflict Minerals from the Covered Countries. Both suppliers also provided information regarding the smelters that process the Conflict Minerals contained in the products sold to us. We compared these smelters against the list of smelters maintained by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (formerly the Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative) and have determined that all of the identified smelters were designated as conformant to the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP).
