Part of the Zero-Halogen Flexible Conduit Family.
Non-halogen, low smoke and low flame spread make Type ZHLA a proven choice for applications where limiting toxic materials of combustion are an important issue. Since ZHLA is also UL listed and CSA Certified for “Heavy-Duty” applications, it is ideal for field installation in confined, public areas such as subways, tunnels, etc.
