AFC

AFC, a brand under the Atkore International group, is a manufacturer of flexible conduit systems for electrical and industrial applications. The product line includes liquid-tight flexible metal conduit (LFMC), liquid-tight flexible non-metallic conduit (LFNC), and continuous-flex plastic conduit, designed for environments requiring protection against moisture, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. AFC's conduit families—such as the Series 160, 6400, 6500, 6800, and 6900—cover trade sizes from 3/8 inch to 4 inches, with lengths ranging from 25 to 100 feet. The Series 160 is a liquid-tight flexible plastic conduit (LFNC-B) rated for general-purpose use, while the Series 6800 and 6900 are extreme-temperature liquid-tight flexible metal conduits (LFMC) constructed with a galvanized steel core and a PVC jacket, suitable for operating temperatures from -40°F to +220°F. The Series 6400 is a communication and data liquid-tight flexible metal conduit with a blue jacket for easy identification in data and telecom installations. The Series 6500 is a continuous-flex liquid-tight plastic conduit with an orange jacket, designed for applications requiring repeated bending or movement, such as robotics or automated machinery. AFC conduits are UL-listed and comply with NEC standards, with IP ratings for water and dust ingress protection. 3G Electric stocks over 25 SKUs of AFC conduit, providing datasheets and logistics support for global procurement. The range covers black, gray, blue, and orange color-coded jackets to simplify identification by application type. AFC's manufacturing processes emphasize consistent wall thickness and fitting compatibility, ensuring reliable performance in harsh environments. For plant engineers and maintenance managers, AFC conduit offers a balance of flexibility and mechanical protection for wiring in wet, corrosive, or high-temperature locations. 3G Electric supports the line with technical specifications and global shipping, enabling procurement specialists to source AFC products for projects in oil and gas, chemical processing, wastewater treatment, and industrial automation.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about AFC from 3G Electric.

What temperature range does AFC Series 6800 extreme-temperature liquid-tight flexible metal conduit handle?

AFC Series 6800 extreme-temperature liquid-tight flexible metal conduit is rated for continuous operation from -40°F to +220°F (-40°C to +104°C). This makes it suitable for environments with high heat or cold, such as near furnaces, ovens, or outdoor installations in extreme climates. The conduit features a galvanized steel core with a PVC jacket that resists cracking at low temperatures and maintains flexibility at high temperatures.

What is the difference between AFC Series 160 liquid-tight flexible plastic conduit and Series 6500 continuous-flex plastic conduit?

AFC Series 160 is a liquid-tight flexible non-metallic conduit (LFNC-B) designed for general-purpose applications where occasional flexing occurs, such as fixed wiring in wet or corrosive areas. Series 6500 is a continuous-flex liquid-tight plastic conduit engineered for dynamic applications requiring repeated bending or movement, such as in robotic arms or cable tracks. Series 6500 has a tighter bend radius and a reinforced construction to withstand millions of flex cycles without failure.

Is AFC Series 6400 communication and data liquid-tight flexible metal conduit suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, AFC Series 6400 communication and data liquid-tight flexible metal conduit is suitable for outdoor use. It has a blue PVC jacket that provides UV resistance and protection against moisture, making it appropriate for exposed installations. The conduit is UL-listed for direct burial and wet locations, and it meets NEC requirements for data and communication cable protection in outdoor environments.

What trade sizes are available for AFC Series 6900 extreme-temperature liquid-tight flexible metal conduit?

AFC Series 6900 extreme-temperature liquid-tight flexible metal conduit is available in trade sizes from 1/2 inch to 4 inches. Common sizes include 1 1/4 inch, 2 1/2 inch, and 4 inch, as stocked by 3G Electric. The conduit is supplied in lengths of 25 feet or 50 feet, depending on the size. It features a gray PVC jacket for identification and is rated for extreme temperatures from -40°F to +220°F.

Does AFC conduit require special fittings for installation?

AFC conduit is designed to be compatible with standard liquid-tight fittings, such as those meeting UL 514B requirements. For liquid-tight flexible metal conduit (Series 6400, 6800, 6900), use fittings with a sealing gasket to maintain the liquid-tight seal. For liquid-tight flexible plastic conduit (Series 160) and continuous-flex plastic conduit (Series 6500), use fittings designed for non-metallic conduit. Always verify fitting compatibility with the conduit trade size and jacket material.
