Appleton Electric XLK15 Explosion Proof Conduit

Appleton EXLK15 is a flexible explosion-proof conduit coupling designed to connect sections of threaded rigid metal conduit or IMC in hazardous locations, providing a safe alternative to rigid runs when space is tight or movement and vibration are present. Part of the Appleton EXLK family, the coupling delivers explosionproof and dust-ignitionproof protection and is UL Listed, CSA and ATEX certified for use in classified locations. The design includes a smooth, rounded integral bushing to protect conductor insulation and an interior insulating liner to guard conductors from abrasion under dynamic conditions, with end fittings that ensure a tight joint and ground continuity. EXLK models are intended for use with threaded rigid metal conduit and IMC, enabling reliable connections in tough environments such as motors, pumps, and other hazardous equipment installations. Typical 15-inch-length variants provide a long flexible span that can accommodate bends or misalignment in conduit runs, reducing the need for excessive rigid bends. All EXLK components meet applicable safety standards for explosive atmospheres and are chosen for environments where vibration, moisture, or contamination might compromise rigid conduit installations.
