FIBER-GUARD FLEX-COR - FLEXIBLE CORRUGATED JACKETED CONDUIT

Flexible Inner Wall Features & Benefits
  • Flexible corrugated inner wall compensates for expansion/contraction stresses.
  • Provided in long continuous lengths, no splices, no waste.
  • Light weight — high tensile strength for easier installation and superior cable protection.
  • Compatible with a wide range of couplers, easily adapts to other conduit types.
  • Options include pre-lubrication and Bull-Line pull tape factory installed.
  • Compatible with air-assist cable placing methods.
  • Jacketed-corrugated inner wall provides increased crush resistance for use in direct burial Flex-Cor® Smooth Out/Corrugated Inner Wall for services.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Fiber-Guard® Flex-Cor is a jacketed-corrugated conduit designed for above ground installations in conduit or raceways on bridges or lashed to existing aerial plant. Fiber-Guard® Flex-Cor is also ideally suited for use in direct buried transition locations or for buried services. The Fiber-Guard® Flex-Cor jacketed-corrugated design and material properties compensate for the stresses of expansion and contraction, eliminating the need for special expansion sleeves. Fiber-Guard® Flex-Cor is made of a specially formulated polyethylene resin that resists the adverse effect of sunlight assuring long life in above ground installations. The standard product is available in 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2" and 2' diameters. The internal corrugated wall can be provided in colors for rapid route identification when installing the cables. The outer jacket is fused to the inner corrugated wall so the assembly performs as a single conduit during installation.

Fiber-Guard® Flex-Cor's Key Installation Advantages
  1. Specifically designed to withstand the stresses introduced by expansion/contraction in above ground installations.
  2. Recommended couplers, Split-Lock or Electro-Fusion, provide airtight seal critical for air-assisted cable placement.
  3. Long lengths reduce the number of couplers needed.
  4. Flex-Cor's dual wall construction has excellent tensile/crush resistance permitting long pulls as well as making it strong enough for use in direct buried transitions or for buried services.
  5. Pays off reel straight - even in cold weather.
  6. Corrugated lubricated inner liner provides low friction during cable placement.
  7. Transition couplers available for joining to other conduit materials and types.
