    Specification
    • Extra heavy Wall (XW) conduit
      Conduit built for hazardous locations, subject to physical damage locations (Class1 Division 2). Every product shall have a nominal wall thickness of 0.250” or 6.4mm.

      ID (Inside Diameter)
      Dimensional standard widely utilized in North America for electrical and telecommunication raceways. This trade size has established its Inside Diameter as the constant value.

      KEY PRODUCTS
      Split conduit (Patented design)

      Section of fiberglass conduit cut completely on its longitudinal axis while being hinged at 180° to the longitudinal cut. It can be opened and closed, allowing its installation over existing cables to protect them without having to remove them. The original Split conduit invention was issued to General Electric of Canada (CGE), our former parent company, under U.S. Patent No. 4175593 and Canadian Patent No. 1043277

      H strip
      Thermoplastic strip utilized to seal the split side of a split conduit.

      T strip
      Thermoplastic strip utilized to seal the hinged side of a split conduit.

      Sleeve
      Oversized section (12” or 305 mm in length) of straight conduit used to repair a damage section of a conduit.

      Wobble coupling
      Non-watertight fitting allowing for vertical and horizontal movements (±3°) of the raceway.

      Skew Wobble coupling
      Non-watertight fitting allowing for vertical and horizontal movements (±7.5°) of the raceway.

      O-Ring Expansion Joint
      Section of conduit including a deep socket unthreaded female section and a gasketed male section of conduit. It is designed to accommodate the thermal expansion and contraction of long sections of straight conduit resulting from ambient temperature variation. This guarantees the water tightness of the joint and no dislocation of the fitting.

      O-Ring Expansion/Deflection Joint
      Similar to O-Ring expansion joint described above, but designed to accommodate slight vertical changes in the direction of the incoming conduit by means of a flexible neoprene sleeve located at the exit of the expansion joint.

      Hangers (Intermediate or Anchored)
      Corrosion protected metallic supports utilized to hang conduit raceways in above ground installations.

      KEY TECHNICAL DESCRIPTIONS
      Glass content

      Weight percent of glass fiber present in the conduit, as % of total weight.

      Span distance
      Distance between conduit supports which varies based on the selected cable weight and conduit trade size.

      Deflection
      Deformation of conduit due to the weight of the cable installed inside it. Deflection is a function of the diameter and weight of the cables, and of the distance between conduit supports. Measured in inches.

      Coefficient of thermal expansion
      Ratio representing the change in linear dimension of a section of conduit resulting from changes in temperature (delta T°).

      Coefficient of friction
      Ratio of the force tending to maintain contact between two surfaces and the force which opposes the sliding of the surfaces one along the other.
