Are Asbestos Flues Still ok to be used?

The no galvy banding rule is retarded...

The problem with the galvanised-band is that it tends to pull on the flue and it moves. A rigid clip shouldn't do either and so keeps the flue it's it's correct location.

Wow that's super rough I think the issue here is not the galv band but installers that don't have a clue. String may as well of been used in this instance!
