Multi-function Conduit Clips


Outlet Reduction

  • Acts as an insert in hinged fitting outlets, shrinking the suitable conduit diameter.
  • Can be easily stacked to enable further reduction in conduit size
  • Can be used in combination with outher hinged accessories to adapt outlets to suit accessories not available in their original body diameter.

Outlet Reinforcement

  • Acts as an additonal reinforcement to conduit immediately after a hinged fitting
  • Increases snap out performance of all backshell and hinged fittings
  • Average strain relief increased by 22%
  • Average tensile strength increased by 21%

Conduit Reinforcement

  • up to 50% greater resistance to compression
  • Securely closes slit conduit to prevent cable exposure
  • External grooves to allow attachment of single piece fixing clips for ease of installation

CCSB's: An Overview

3-in-1 circular clips for slit conduit that offer up to 50% greater resistance to compression and mechanical strain

Harnessflex multi-function conduit clips are designed to securely close slit conduit, preventing cable exposure. This reduces the risk of cable damage, improves crush strength of slit conduits and offers greater strain relief on all Harnessflex hinged fitting and conduit systems.

Harnessflex multi-function conduit clips are made from resilient PA66 material and provide additional compression strength to slit conduits. When applied, these conduit clips also help to maintain conduit integrity when strained, greatly reducing associated risks of gapping and severe damage to cables.

These conduit clips also provide a reducing function for hinged fittings, allowing smaller conduits to be installed securely into larger conduit outlets. Some clips can be clipped together to offer further reducing options, allowing inventory to be maximised and providing greater product installation flexibility for global harness-makers.


Harnessflex Interconnect system


Interface with Sleeving

  • Acts as an insert in hinged fitting outlets, offering a means to attach sleeving or heatshrink.
  • Allows free rotation of braid/sleeving to reduce strain.
  • Can be easily secured with either Ty-Fast® cable ties or Harnessflex Multi-Function clips (CCSB's)

Slit Conduit Reinforcement

  • Acts as an insert inside slit conduit ends to improve tensile strength when connecting to hinged fittings / connector interfaces
  • Pairs well with CCSB's outlet reinforcement capabilities to further improve strength of connection.

Multisleeve adaptors: An Overview

Compatible with Harnessflex Multi-Function Clips or Ty-Rap® cable ties, the Harnessflex Interconnect System is available for all conduit outlet sizes NC08 to NC40 (excluding NC10). Without the right cable protection system in place, electric vehicles may become prone to critical electrical failure which will cause them to breakdown, resulting in timetable disruptions and repair costs. One of the key areas at risk is the vital link between cable and connector. Without robust backshell protection, cables running into connectors are often left exposed, leaving them open to intrusion, excessive strain and impact damage - all of which can lead to electrical faults and vehicle failure.


Smooth Entry Grommets


Direct Cable Insertion

  • One piece slit insert providing abrasion protection for cables passing through a hinged junction where conduit is not used.
  • Smoothbore outlet

TPV Material

  • A polypropylene based elastomer designed primarily for demanding automotive applications. This material exhibits excellent compression set, flex fatigue and high and low temperature performance.
  • TPV fittings are resistant to: Water, acids, ethanol, glycerol, methanol and propanol, hydraulic brake fluid and antifreeze.

Multiway reducers & Blanking Caps


Multiway Reducers

  • One-piece, multi-way breakout inserts providing reducing options to a variety of conduit sizes
    from a single fitting junction.
  • Can accommodate all types of Harnessflex slit and unslit conduit and may be used with all
    Hinged Harnessflex fittings.
  • In-line circular fittings are designed to use these reducers as a depenancy, requiring one for use.

Blanking Caps

  • One-piece inserts to blank a hinged conduit outlet, maintaining its original IP rating.
