Flexible Metal Conduit
Flexible Metal Conduit (FMC) has a spiral structure that allows it to pass through walls and other structures. FMC protects electrical wiring in commercial and industrial buildings.
Performance of Flexible Metal Conduit
Flexible Metal Conduit is used as protective wire for electric wires, which has good protection, good corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance, abrasion resistance, tensile property and waterproof property. And provide a certain shielding effect.
Different construction environment requires threading pipes with different materials. Metal flexible pipes are often used as wire, cable, automatic instrument signal wire and cable protection tube, etc..
We can also supply the Flexible Metal Conduit EMI Proof, Non-Metallic Flexible Conduit etc.
Reasons for Using Flexible Metal Conduit
In complex piping systems, there are often difficulties due to space position conditions, resulting in installation difficulties: the formed pipe can not be loaded; bending over, coming over, making the installed pipe will inevitably produce local cold correction. Depending on the pipe diameter and the specific conditions on site, the amount of cold correction ranges from a few millimeters to tens of millimeters, and some hundreds of millimeters. Practice has proved that the larger the amount, the higher the internal stress, and the installation stress of these residues in the pipeline system is undoubtedly extremely invisible.
A section of the bearing lubricant pipe in a certain type of engine has many fracture accidents in actual operation, which is caused by excessive installation stress.
Because it can be bent at will and the internal stress generated by bending under the rated bending radius is very small, it can bring great convenience to the installation work and also guarantee the safe operation of the pipeline system. This is the main reason why some piping systems must use Flexible Metal Conduit.
