Reliable® RASCOFLEXTM Sprinkler Connections
cULus Listed, FM Approved
Product Description
RASCOFLEXTM Sprinkler Connections are intended to connect RECEIVED
a branch line to a sprinkler using a flexible stainless steel hose
assembly. RASCOFLEXTM Sprinkler Connections are suitable
�(� 3 Zoa�
for use in suspended and hard ceiling applications such as
T-Bar ceiling grids, wood, metal stud, or hat furring channel I ITV OF TIGARD
hard lid ceilings. Every package contains one(1)fully assem-
bled stainless steel flexible sprinkler system complete with BUILDING DIVISION
hose, branch line connection, and sprinkler connection,as well
as the pre-assembled bracket assembly to attach to the ceiling.
RASCOFLEXTM Sprinkler Connections are designed for use in
hydraulically calculated wet, preaction, or dry sprinkler sys-
tems per NFPA 13, 13R, 13D, and FM Global Loss Prevention
