Hinged Fittings

Introduction

Hinged fittings allow for protection of cables at breakouts, harness serviceability and for the conduit system to self-level. They are designed to protect against high-pressure washing, excessive cable strain, and mechanical abrasion.

Variety, flexibility, and assembly speed are inherent in all automotive fittings.

 Quality and Standards

Manufacturing is controlled in accordance with BS EN ISO 9001, while on going testing and approval to international standards (UL®, TUV, LCIE) provides additional confidence required to specify appropriate products across the widest variety of automotive applications — including hazardous or aggressive environments.

 Applications

External Hinged T-Pieces – Type TPS – One-piece symmetrical 3 junction fittings allow a variety of conduit size     variations. These fittings are designed to snap together over all types of slit and unslit conduit thus maintaining maximum conduit bore. All sizes up to 40mm are one piece hinged, 40mm TPS fittings are two piece unhinged.

 External Y-Pieces – Type YPS – One-piece asymmetrical 3 junction fittings allow a variety of conduit variations. These fittings are designed to snap together over all types of slit and unslit conduits, thus maintaining maximum internal bore. All sizes up to 40mm are one piece hinged, 40mm YPS fittings are two piece unhinged

 External Hinged Protective Shrouds – One-piece hinged fittings over mating connectors and cable joins, to protect fuse links, circuit breakers or splicing areas from damage through impact & vibration.

 External Hinged Joiners – Type JPS – One-piece joiner hinged fittings allow a variety of conduit size variations. These fittings are designed to snap together over all types of slit and un-slit conduit thus maintaining maximum conduit bore. Can be used as a reducer or as an enlarger.

 External Hinged Elbows – One-piece elbow joiner hinged fittings allow a variety of conduit size variations. These fittings are designed to snap together over all types of slit and un-slit conduit thus maintaining maximum conduit bore. Can be used as a reducer as well as an enlarger.
