Flexible assembly for sprinklers
An assembly for connecting a sprinkler to a branch line of a fire suppression system includes a flexible conduit having one end attached to the branch line. The opposite end is attached to the sprinkler. The conduit is corrugated and has an outer surface with a plurality of crests and troughs. A sleeve co-axially surrounds a portion of the flexible conduit proximate to the sprinkler. The sleeve has a corrugated inwardly facing surface comprising a plurality of crests and troughs spaced so as to fit within the crests and troughs of the conduit and thereby prevent axial sliding motion of the sleeve relatively to the conduit. The sleeve and the flexible conduit are rotatable relatively to one another thereby preventing torque being applied to the flexible conduit through the sleeve.
