Looking to purchase high quality split wire loom tubing? Here are some recommendations and extra details helping you to make the best pick. Flexible metallic conduit (also known as FMC) can be a practical choice for the large construction projects, for example building the underground car park. This particular conduit relies on interlocking metal coils to produce a long tube that lets the wires move through. By interlocking the individual pieces it can be possible to make a very flexible material. It really is practical to the installation protects that take place in a dry environment, but needs to be avoided if you have a risk of the water penetration.
Rigid polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is similar to plastic plumbing pipe and is installed with plastic fittings that are glued in place. It can be bent after being heated in a portable heater box. Because the conduit tubing and fittings are glued together, the conduit assemblies can be watertight, making PVC suitable for direct burial in the ground for many applications. It is also allowed in corrosive environments.
Electrical metallic tubing, or EMT, is the most common type of conduit for exposed interior installations, such as in a basement or an unfinished garage or workshop. It is the lightest and thinnest of the rigid metal conduit types and comes in a few different diameters; 1/2-inch is the most standard size for household circuits. EMT is also called “thin-wall” and is relatively easy to bend with a tool called a conduit bender. EMT is permitted by the National Electrical Code (NEC) for dry and wet locations but requires special watertight fittings and connectors in wet locations. With proper installation, EMT raceway can serve as a circuit ground path and be used in place of a separate ground wire running inside the conduit. Find extra info at Split wire loom tubing.
Flexible metal conduit or FMC, is a helically-wound flexible metal electrical wiring conduit, often made using aluminum such as the ALFlex™ conduit shown here. Flexible metallic electrical conduit is used principally in commercial and industrial construction world wide. In residential applications you may find FMC used to connect an electric oven or electric cooktop. This conduit is also sold as LFMC or liquid-tight flexible metal conduit.
The ID and OD means inner diameter and outer diamter of flexible conduit. OD is the maximum of flexible conduit, and is a fixed number that can not be deviated from. Flexible conduit are always corrugated inner and outer, so we’d better leave more space inner to make wires and cables easier to through. So we should leave 20% space based on inner diameter. It may sound backward but use the diameter of the conduit as a guide to the service needed. It is better to use a conduit that is too big than one that is too small.

If you’re going to protect a series of cables. I think split plastic flexible conduit is a good choice for you. Split plastic flexible conduit is split. It is easy for you to put cable in and take them out. Sometimes people will be worried about the cables will fall out from conduit. Please don’t worry about, after put all cables in, we will often use wrap tape to fix conduit. Most people know corrugated plastic flexible conduit and split plastic flexible conduit. But they know little about HDPE spiral flexible conduit. HDPE spiral flexible conduit is spiral conduit, makes it stronger and durabler than general flexible conduit. Furthermore, it can be produced in big diameter. We can produce 300mm outer diameter of HDPE spiral flexible conduit. It is nearly impossible for general flexible conduit.
