Rapidrop Flexible Sprinkler Connections Keeping the art of distribution simple
Rapidrop Flexible Sprinlker Connections Shawston are a stockist and distributor of Flexible Hose and associated installation accessories. We carry in depth stocks at all of our branches for next day deliveries nationally. Rapidrop is a complete unit, a corrugated stainless steel flexible with nipple, reducer, bar and brackets, which are fitted to the ceiling tile support rails to locate and secure the sprinkler in the correct position. s well as considerably reduced installation time, the risk of mess (from the cutting and threading activity associated with the traditional armover method) in the clean area below the suspended ceiling is eliminated, allowing other activities to proceed more efficiently. The unique Rapidrop system easily positions the sprinkler in the centre of the ceiling tile at the correct height and can be installed in 10 to 15 minutes. The concept is very simple and breathtakingly efficient.
