E-flex 21801 Flexible Liquidtight Conduit 1/2 in 100 Ft

Product Description

The E-FLEX 21801 is a Type LA flexible liquidtight conduit designed for wiring installations where moisture, chemicals, and mechanical stress are present. The conduit features a hot-dip galvanized steel core wrapped in a black PVC jacket, giving it resistance to acids, corrosion, oil, and sunlight exposure. It ships in a 100-foot length and carries a trade size of 1/2 inch, with an inner diameter ranging from 0.622 to 0.642 inches and an outer diameter ranging from 0.82 to 0.84 inches. Licensed electricians install this conduit in commercial, industrial, and specialty electrical applications where standard rigid or non-liquidtight conduit is not appropriate.

The E-FLEX 21801 is suited for a wide range of demanding environments, including boatyards, marinas, direct burial runs, electric sign wiring, hazardous locations, outline lighting installations, raised floor assemblies, and service entrance wiring. Its flexible construction simplifies routing around obstructions and through tight spaces. The 3-inch minimum bending radius helps maintain conductor integrity during installation. This conduit is appropriate for both dry and wet locations within its rated temperature range.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 350 and applicable local codes. Disconnect and lock out all power to the circuit before cutting or terminating the conduit. Use liquidtight fittings rated for Type LA conduit to maintain the liquidtight integrity of the assembly. Avoid exceeding the minimum bending radius of 3 inches to prevent damage to the steel core or conductors inside.
