Features of 56 series

When you choose the Clipsal 56 Series you can be sure that you have chosen a product that makes no compromise on quality.

Our range is the largest of its kind in the world, and every single model in our comprehensive range has an international protection rating of IP56 or IP66. Combined with 56 Series High Pressure Gaskets we can exceed these ratings by up to 1600 PSI. It is a truly modular system for the entire range, and each unit is designed to withstand our harsh Australian conditions.

Only Clipsal provides different materials for different applications - one material can’t do it all. Constructed using specially designed engineering plastics, our products can be used in almost any environment, from ware-houses and commercial wash down areas, to heavy industrial and outdoor locations.
