In the process of work associated with wiring, the question often arises: how to secure and protect the media? To provide additional protection for both external and internal wiring of electrical, telephone, television and other networks, corrugated PVC pipes are often used. The smooth inner layer of these products, made of HDPE or PVD materials of light or heavy series, provides convenient cable routing, allowing the replacement of a damaged wire without any difficulty.
The advantages of a flexible pipe
Flexible corrugated PVC pipe can be carried out hidden, that is, in the space of building structures. For example, inside false ceilings and floors, as well as in the voids of walls that do not include combustible materials. Or outwardly. If the installation of the wiring must be carried out in a cement screed, then for such purposes it is better to choose heavy and even superheavy pipes. Thanks to the corrugated outer side, they are able to withstand a significant load. Pipes can be laid even under a concrete coating - in areas where high transport pressure is observed.
Corrugation ensures the safety of the power line
Thanks to the material from which the products are made (self-extinguishing PVC compound), their dielectric strength demonstrates quite high insulating properties: the ability to withstand voltages up to 1000 V. They also have the ability to extend the life of the wires, since any possibility of grinding the wire inside the pipe is eliminated. In addition, it provides protection against mechanical stress, UV rays and liquids. All of the above ensures uninterrupted operation of the network. To increase safety, certain standards must be observed during wiring: only network communication can be laid in one pipe, and it is best to place them at a certain distance from each other. Corrugated PVC pipes are absolutely safe to use, since the material from which they are made does not emit harmful substances and is completely environmentally friendly. In addition, these products have a fairly small weight and do not cause inconvenience during transportation. Another advantage of using corrugated PVC pipes for wiring is their low cost.
Standard pipe packaging
All corrugated
PVC pipes are packed in coils of 15, 20, 25, 50 and 100 meters. In this case, the tightness of the package is respected. The assortment of corrugated PVC pipes is represented by the dimensions of the outer and inner diameters. For example, a corrugated PVC pipe 20/14 means that its outer diameter is 20 mm and its inner diameter is 14 mm. They are packed in bays of 100 m each. Corrugated pipes of the indicated sizes are used, as a rule, when wiring cables to switches or sockets. Thanks to the broach, the
steel cable that is laid in the product at the factory, corrugated PVC pipes greatly simplify the installation of cable lines and speed up the installation process.
