Liquidtight Metallic Tubing (LMT) – water-resistant, LMT is ideal for use outdoors where exposure to the elements is more likely. Here at Flex-It, we have a wide selection of metallic flexible conduits available for you to choose from, including the C-Series, F-Series, and SS-Series. Galvanised steel with PVC covering, galvanised steel overbraid, enhanced EMI screening flexible conduit FMC (flexible metallic conduit) strong, hardwearing conduit tube. Provides good cable protection, flexibility but is not waterproof, so good for dry indoor locations. The construction of FMC allows it to pass through walls and other channelled structures. Adaptaflex have a wide selection of flexible metallic conduit systemsmanufactured either in galvanized steel or stainless steel.

The B-Series Plain Galvanised Steel Range is ideal for underfloor heating systems and other applications where continuous flexing is required. If you’re looking for a liquid-tight flexible metal conduit for demanding environments – be it lighting, communication, air conditioning systems or fire alarm systems, our D-Series Liquid-Tight PVC Covered Steel Range is a fantastic choice. Offering excellent mechanical strength, this type of flexible metal conduit is perfect for machining, processing and handling environments. Whether you’re looking for something suitable for outdoor applications, your cables are being installed indoors, or you need the best of both worlds, our range of conduits works in all sorts of environments to protect cables and keep them organised.Conduit is tubing used to enclose and protect electrical wires that supply power to a home or a building. Electrical conduits are made from plastic, steel, galvanized steel, nylon, PVC, polypropylene and steel spring wire, providing a channel for single or multiple cables.

Liquid Tight IP67 Rated Steel Flexible Conduit - This is a type of metallic conduit that has been covered with a waterproof plastic coating. It allows the conduit to keep out any moisture from the cable, ensuring safety within installation. It’s flexibility means it can be used in places that has tight bends, such as bridges, paper mills and water treatment plants. The IP67 represents one of the highest levels of protection offered by an IP rating, ensuring complete protection against any dust and protection against water and liquids up to the immersion of one meter. Therefore, this type of conduit is the ideal solution for any installations in wet conditions or any environment that is damp or humid. RMC (rigid metal conduit) a galvanized steel tube that requires threaded fittings. A heavy-duty conduit providing great protection, indoors and out, of electrical cables and other equipment.

Specification

A metallic flexible conduit provides the same level of protection as its rigid counterparts but isn’t confined to travel in a straight line. It’s more versatile and can bend and twist in almost any direction – allowing turns at corners and reducing the need for elbow joints. All our conduits are supplied in a wide range of trade sizes, internal and external diameters, coil sizes and with a different bending radius. Of course, all conduits have different price points, and some will be more expensive than others depending on the materials they’re made from as well as their size. Also known as Greenfield, flexible metal conduits are made from galvanized steel tubing that is installed with threaded fittings. They are more durable that plastic conduits and can withstand harsher weather conditions. However, they are more difficult to install than other types of conduit as the material is harder to bend and cut when you compare it to plastic. It is most suitable for applications in electrical power, communication cables and wire fixtures. Below is a summary of our most popular flexible metal conduits; Metal flexible conduit is made from galvanized steel tubing with a zinc coating. This type of conduit is more durable than plastic flexible conduit and can withstand harsh weather conditions. It’s also less likely to corrode over time. However, metal flexible conduit is heavier than plastic flexible conduit and can be more difficult to install.
