TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Gilflex conduits and fittings are manufactured in

accordance with the relevant British Standards.

BS 6099 Conduits for Electrical Installations

Part 1 Specification of general requirements

BS 4607 Non-metallic Conduit Fittings for Electrical

Installations

Part 1 Specification for fittings and components of

insulating material

The criteria for conduit is the diameter, all conduit

manufactured to the BS is measured on its outside

diameter (also described as O/D or Ø). This ensures

compatibility between all conduits and fittings.

PVCu conduit can be bent as required; for smaller sized

conduits up to 25mm a bending spring is the simplest

method, for larger sizes a bending machine with formers

is ideal. In cold weather a gentle warming of the conduit

assists the bending process. Excessive heating must be

avoided – the conduit will deform. Spring pulled bends

should be formed over the largest possible radius. Do not

attempt to pull a tight bend in one action.

When conduit is inserted into box termination spouts,

adaptors etc., no additional fixing is required.

The range of Gilflex

KlickFIt

fittings improves the ease of

installation and the finished appearance. There are no

screws to lose or corrode. The range comprises of

Spacer

Saddles, Inspection Bends, Inspection Elbows and

Inspection Tees

for 20mm conduit sizes. A similar range

exists for 25mm conduit with the exception of an

Inspection Elbow.

A major advantage of the Spacer Saddles

(GSB20 and

GSB25)

is the ability to close gang conduits. Because the

saddle base is only slightly bigger than the diameter of the

conduit, unlike conventional spacer bar saddles, which

require more than twice the space occupied by the

conduit, two conduits can be installed as parallel runs

with minimum space between them. It is also possible for

the spacer saddles to be mounted in a straight line. To

reduce the distance between conduits using conventional

saddles, the saddles have to be offset or staggered.

Conduit Reducers

(GR1M and GR2M) must be used in

conjunction with a coupler (GSC), an adaptor (GFA-GMA)

or a spout of a conduit box (B24-66).

AGB ADAPTABLE BOXES

The AGB 2 (75 x 75 x 50mm) provides the means of

producing multiple configurations of boxes for 32mm,

38mm and 50mm systems. The simple expedient of using

a GFA (female adaptor) of the appropriate size in any of

the four walls or base will provide termination, angle, tee,

through and intersection variants and, if required, conduit

size reduction without the need for reducers.
