INTERLOCKED TUBE
The Interlocked Tube's metal strip is fully interlocked. This offers superior tensile strenght and crush resistance while allowing full extension and compression without binding. The Interlocked Tube is designed to maintain a particular shape or bending condition which makes this tube ideal for application such as light guides or bundling optical fibers in medical equipment.
The Interlocked Tube also incorporates a cotton thread for waterproofing and vibration absorption. Standard material is stainless steel with optional sheathing.
Tube Material: Stainless Steel / Galvanized Steel
ID: ø4.0 ~ ø63.0mm
OD: ø6.0 ~ ø67.5mm
OD with Coating: ø7.0 ~ ø72.5mm
Features:
• Very strong interlocking
• Resists lateral pressure
• No elasticity, large bending radius
Materials:
• Tubing: Stainless steel
• Sheathing: Soft Polyvinyl Chloride, Olefin, Silicon
Applications:
• Hollow quartz fiber protection
Interlocked Tubes / Conduits
The Interlocked tubes are connected firmer than Square-locked conduits. By interlocking U-shaped stainless steel tape the flexible tube becomes stronger. The Interlocked tubes resist high lateral pressure, twisting and pulling, with repeated bending which makes them an ideal solution for protecting optical fibers and light guides.
Applications
•Protection for large core optical fibers
•High Power fiber laser cables
Features
•High tensile strength and crush resistance
•Repeated bending
•Pliable and non-stretch
Interlocked Tubes / Conduits are connected firmer than Square-Locked conduits. They resist high lateral pressure, twisting and pulling, with repeated bending. Optimum protection for optical fiber designed for optical fibers and light guides. They also offer excellent vibration absorption.
