Adaptaflex offers various non-metallic conduits, including PA, PF, PI, PR, CP, and PADL, each designed for specific applications. The Adaptalok range includes multiple fitting types for different installation needs.
The catalogue details over 20 types of non-metallic conduit systems, each with unique technical properties for cable management. Conduits are available in sizes from 10mm to 106mm, with options for lightweight, standard, and heavyweight applications. Materials include Polyamide (Nylon) 6, Polyamide 12, and Polyamide 11, with high UV resistance and self-extinguishing properties.
Conduits are categorized by weight, flexibility, and temperature range. Lightweight conduits are made from Polyamide 6, available in black and grey, with high flexibility and fatigue life. Standard and heavyweight conduits offer similar properties with varying degrees of flexibility and temperature resistance. All conduits are halogen-free and self-extinguishing.
The systems are compatible with various fittings, including Adaptalok, ATS, Adaptaring, and Adaptaseal, providing IP ratings from IP40 to IP69K. The products have industry approvals such as BSI Kitemark, CE, UL 1696, and others, ensuring compliance with safety and performance standards.
To order, specify the part number, color, and reel length. For example, PAFL13/BL/50M indicates a 13mm conduit in black with a 50m reel length.
Various fittings are compatible with different IP ratings, ranging from IP40 to IP69K, depending on the fitting and seal used. Temperature range for static applications is -50ºC to +120ºC, and for moving applications, it is -45ºC to +120ºC. All conduits are self-extinguishing and halogen-free, with very high UV resistance.
The document details various fittings such as straight fittings, 90º elbow fittings, 45º elbow fittings, and swivel couplers, with specifications for each type.
The Adaptalok ATS™ system offers a sophisticated moulding process that includes internal conduit seals and face seal washers, ensuring fast and reliable installation. It features a Nylon 6.6 body, is lightweight, quick to install, and provides a wide variety of fittings with improved fatigue life and shape retention.
The fittings are primarily made from Polyamide (Nylon) 66 and Aluminium/TPE, available in Black (BL), Yellow (Y), and Blue (B) elastomer colors.
Static applications range from -50ºC to +120ºC, while moving applications range from -45ºC to +120ºC.
The fittings are suitable for use with conduits rated IP40, IP65, IP68 (4 bar 30mins), and IP69K.
Includes straight, 45º, and 90º elbow configurations with both internal and external threads. They are compatible with conduit types PA, PI, CP, PR, and PF, and offer IP ratings up to IP69K with the ALS Seal.
The document confirms the fittings' compliance with various standards and their suitability for use in non-metallic conduit systems.
Includes Hi-Spec Type A & B, Adaptasteel, and others. Each type is described with its material (e.g., nickel-plated brass, galvanized steel), size, thread type, and IP rating suitability. The document also outlines temperature ranges for static and moving applications, emphasizing high flexibility and fatigue life.
The conduits are suitable for a variety of applications, including CCTV, roller shutter doors, and fiber optics protection. They are also designed for use in environments requiring liquid resistance and EMI screening.
Part numbers and reel lengths specified for each type, with examples on how to quote them for ordering.
