TYPE LA

Made in the USA

Jacketed Metallic

A flexible steel conduit that is both listed by Underwriters Laboratories Inc. and
certified by Canadian Standards Association. It offers outstanding protection against
wet, oily conditions and is permitted for use in exposed or concealed locations.

CONSTRUCTION:

The flexible inner core is made from
a spiral wound strip of heavy-gauge,
corrosion-resistant, hot-dipped galvanized
steel. The 3/8 through 1-1/4 inch trade
sizes are squarelock formed and include
an integral bonding strip of copper
that is enclosed within the convolutions
throughout their entire length. The 1-1/2
through 4-inch trade sizes are designed
with a fully interlocked strip.

The liquidtight jacketing material is of
a high-quality, rugged, flame-retardant
flexible PVC compound that resists oils,
mild acids and exposure to sunlight. Refer
to the Chemical Resistance Guide on our
website for further information.
