Versatile
- Comes in three wall thicknesses, (.070”, .096”, and .250”)
- Bullet resistant (.250” wall), withstands most types of ammunition cost-efficient replacement for steel in many high-risk applications
Rugged
- Highest strength-to-weight ratio of any conduit material available
- High impact resistant construction easily withstands rough handling in the field
- UV resistant
Lightweight
- Workers can easily lift and carry sections, making it easy to handle
- Reduces worker fatigue
Economical to install
- Lighter weight and high strength simplify installation, eliminate the need for expensive lifting equipment and reduce the quantity of support hardware, such as bridge hangers, by as much as 50%
- Also reduces bridge permitting costs when the permits are based on weight
Easy to install
- To join sections, a simple push and twist motion is all that’s required
- Inner duct alignment is simple and secure, due to the same anti-reversing, gasketed coupling system used in PVC Opti-Com®
Non-corrosive
- Highly resistant to corrosive road chemicals, salt, bacteria, weather conditions, and ultra-violet decomposition
Long service life
- Adhesive-bondable male and female ends assure a permanent, watertight seal
- Fiberglass material is essentially inert; it will not corrode, deteriorate or decompose
Wide service-temperature range
- Remains stable and rigid from -40˚ to +230˚ F
- Will not become brittle in extreme cold or deform in heat generated by short-term electrical overloads
- Expansion and contraction forces are minimal
Non-conductive
- Due to the non-metallic material properties of fiberglass, damaging electrolysis will not occur
- Non-conductivity also eliminated the need for expensive, insulated bridge hangers
Full System Configuration
- Available with a complete line of factory bends, expansion joints and bridge hangers to accommodate virtually any installation requirement
