Published on : Tuesday 30-11--0001

According to Tim Creedon, Sales and Marketing Director, “Flexicon Ultra^TM has been developed for applications where the loss of power or data would have serious consequences resulting in downtime, loss of revenue and possible penalty clauses. In today’s interconnected world such a loss can often affect far more than the equipment connected.”

The patented fitting combines a number of class leading performance criteria. It’s all round teeth provide 360° strength to provide the strongest tensile strength available of up to 70 kg and the highest levels of anti-vibration and shock protection performance tested to EN 61373 Cat 2.  The integrated sealing technology delivers an IP rating of 66, 67, 68 and 69.

Unusually for such a high performance fitting, Flexicon Ultra has a one-piece construction, making it easier to install with less chance of an incorrect assembly. The fitting can be installed in less than three seconds using a simple push and twist connection to the conduit.

Flexicon Ultra is tamper proof, but can be removed using a screwdriver if required. It is available as a straight, elbow, UNEF or flange with both male and female thread options for use with fine and coarse pitch corrugated nylon conduits.
