Flameproof & Increased Safety Male to Male and Female to Female Adaptors

Raxton Exd/Exe Male to Male hazardous area adaptors provide a means of electrical connection between two female threads of the same or different thread forms. Female to Female adaptors provide a connection between two male threads of the same or dissimilar thread forms – all adaptors are ATEX Certified.

In each case, Exd/Exe Male to Male and Female to Female adaptors, manufactured by Raxton,  can reduce thread combinations by one size of the same thread form or to the equivalent of another form.

Both Raxton Male to Male and Female to Female flameproof (Exd) and increased safety (Ex e) adaptors are marked with the  applicable approval number and size.
