The Uses And Benefits
T&D are Approved Stockists and Distributors for the Flexicon range of Flexible Conduits including hazardous area EXD flameproof conduits, liquid tight conduits, industrial conduits and flexible metallic conduits with optional coating or braiding protection.
What Exactly Is A Flexible Conduit?
Cable conduits are protective tubes that are put around cables to protect from dirt,damp and any other potentially damaging external problem. When cables are laid, they must have adequate protection to ensuretheir longevity and safety. Flexible conduits protect and contain power cables, data cables, wiring and fibre optic cables.
Flexicon Features & Benefits - Market Leading Flexible Conduit Systems
The Flexicon FPA(X) range of flexible conduit fittings offer the ultimate solution for cable protection. Offering the highest pull off strength across all sizes, due to its all round teeth, it has incredibly high levels of Ingress Protection and is available from 10mm upto 67mm sizes.
Non-Metallic Conduits
Non-metallic flexible conduits and Flexicon FLP up to 34mm can be easily cut with Flexicon Conduit Cutters, part number CC01. Use Flexicon conduit cutter CC02 for conduit up to 67mm. Drop the blade into a corrugation and squeeze and twist until conduit is 50% cut through. Cut the remaining 50% flexible conduit without twisting to achieive a square cut.
Metallic Conduits
Metallic flexible conduits should be cut with a fine tooth (32 TPI) hacksaw or bandsaw. Ensure you make a straight vertical cut into the flexible conduit. Use Flexicon BSB clamping vice to make a hacksaw use easier.
Overbraided Conduits
Overbraided conduits is cut easier by tightly wrapping self adhesive tape around the conduit and sawing through the middle of the tape. The tape should be removed if EMC screening is required from the flexible conduit system. Ensure you make a straight vertical cut into the conduit.
