Type PF

Plen-Flex® is a smoketight, liquidtight Flexible Metallic Tubing and is listed for use in plenums and other air handling spaces. Often referred to as FMT.

Construction:

Plen-Flex® is constructed from steel strip which contains an extra coating of zinc galvanizing for added protection against corrosion. This strip is formed into a corrugated profile and is tightly interlocked to form a smoketight, airtight and liquid tight pliable tube which weighs about 40% less than FMC (Greenfield).

UL- Listed File #E80694
Approved for use by the city of Chicago.

Applications:

This tubing is used to wire drop-in lighting fixtures and other equipment found in plenum ceilings and other air handling areas.

Type CL-standard weight

Standard weight. Provides the best mechanical strength and protection of the Corrlok conduits.

The Corrlok/PMAFIX System:

The Corrlok System offers designers and electricians many advantages over numerous other wiring products. It provides a very light weight, liquidtight, flexible raceway resistant to abrasion, sunlight, temperature extremes and many common chemicals. The specially formulated nylon compounds are self extinguishing and release no halogens or corrosive gases in fire situations.

Applications:

Corrlok conduits are defined in the National Electrical Code (ANSI/NFPA-70) under article 351-22 (3) for Liquidtight Flexible Nonmetallic Conduits. It's design is also referred to as type C. The Corrlok System is well suited for many electrical installa tions such as Industrial Control Equipment, Machine Tools and Plastic Molding/Extrusion machinery. Also used for wiring Printing Presses, Textile Machinery and Medical Equipment. The system also lends itself quite well to non-electrical applications suc h as protecting air-logic circuitry and Fiber Optics. The conduits can be extruded in other colors to differentiate between Electrical circuits and Fiber Optics.

Because the materials used are non-toxic and self extinguishing, Corrlok is a proven choice for situations where the potential for fire in confined, inhabited areas is a concern. Passenger rail vehicles are just one of the many such examples.

Construction:

Conduits of the Corrlok System are manufactured in a continuous extrusion/corrugation process which produces a flexible seamless tube with annular corrugations. The corrugations are what gives the conduit it's strong crush and impact resistance and excel lent flexibility properties. The internal corrugations are well rounded which facilitates easy wire insertion.
