Galvanized flexible pipe
Galvanized metal tube, also named snake pipe, generally is used to protect wire and cable, which is produced by bending galvanized steel into a rectangular-shaped interlocking system for control. It is a low-cost and good flexibility product widely used in construction, machinery, and other industries.
Galvanized flexible pipe advantages :
- Protect wiring from mechanical damage.
- To prevent fire in case of a short circuit.
- The flexibility of the metal hose provides ease of installation without the need for additional accessories and equipment.
- Prevents kinking of cables inside metal hoses.
- It is an EMI shield.
- Rodent protection.
- Recommended for laying power systems on combustible surfaces, including wood.
- It can be applied to industrial installations transporting coarse bulk solids.
Galvanized flexible pipe is used in a variety of applications, including:
• Connecting water supply lines
• Connecting gas lines
• Connecting HVAC systems
• Connecting sprinkler systems
• Connecting drain lines
• Connecting electrical conduit
• Connecting exhaust systems
• Connecting air conditioning systems
• Connecting plumbing systems
• Connecting ventilation systems
• Connecting solar systems
