Pressure Tight Duraflex®
and Megaflex®
Conduits

DURAFLEX® C-3 METAL CONDUIT
Duraflex® C-3 is an extremely flexible, convoluted, pressure tight metal conduit which exhibits prolonged resistance to vibration, heat, and pressure.
Features:
The single layer of 2 over 2 under fine bronze wire braid restrains axial pressure and provides maximum protection.
Application:
Radio Frequency Shielding, Low Temperature Protection of Electrical Wiring, Abrasion Resistance, Corrosion Resistance, Non-Sparking, and Electrical Continuity.
Construction:
Inner core – Brass; Braid – 1 Layer Bronze Fine Wire; Braid Weave – 2 over x 2 under
Fittings:
Customers may specify from a wide range of fittings to satisfy electromagnetic hermetic sealing, high temperature, self-locking, or other requirements. Typically, end fittings for industrial applications are made of brass; however, more severe operating environments may call for fittings constructed of other materials.
