Eflex corrugated hard polyethylene pipe

The standard dimensions of EFLEX are as shown in the table below. A pilot wire is inserted inside EFLEX during production. It is connected with the cable pilot wire to pull the cable into the pipe. EFLEX is, as a rule, shipped from the factory, wound in a coil. A pilot wire has an allowable tensile strength of 50 kg.

When purchasing EFLEX, it is recommended that its nominal diameter be more than 1.5 times as large as the outer diameter of the cable to be accommodated.
The allowable bending radius should be five times or more of the EFLEX outer diameter.
⚠ If cables are not drawn in for a long time, the pilot wires could corrode. Replace them with plastic order wires to suit the conditions of use. When drawing in cables, replace pilot wires with order wires for the purpose
Keep away from fire

Resistance against loads

When a 25-ton truck drove over a location where EFLEX has been buried at a depth of 30 cm from the ground surface, the deformation ratio was less than 3.5%, demonstrating sufficient resistance against loads.

🔸 EFLEX Work Procedures

Long and easy-to-bend EFLEX saves labor and shortens work time when laying conduits.

⚠ Roll the girp to extend the cable.
Make sure that cable do not wind while thay are being laid.
Compact the ground under EFLEX, especially near the manhole.
Pirerce with rods for tesing, to discern whether cable-laying conditions are acceptable.
Feel free to order our Work procedure document for details.

🔸 EFLEX System
Various components are combined to protect cable inside EFLEX

🔸 Work procedures

1. Twsit the joint at one end of EFLEX.

2. Line one end of EFLEX up with another

3. Twist the joint in 1. back so that the connecting part is centeered

* AQUAFIT of radius between ø125 and 200 can be worked more smoothly using a belted wrench and other tools. Cut the edge of EFLEX perpendicularly.

⚠ Do not remove from the bag until immediately before working, as a non-woven water-expansion cloth has been used.
Avoid storing in places exposed to high temperature and humidity or direct sunlight.
Avoid using in places where a large volume of water will penetrate the duct part.

Excellent waterproofing property of non-woven water-expansion cloth

When non-woven, water-expansion cloth comes into contact with water, it expands immediately and stops wa-ter from seeping.

Bellmouth

After EFLEX has been fixed to the man-hold, the bellmouth shouth should be attached to the end part of EFLEX to enhance the appearance and prevent cable from be-ing scratched of damaged while being pulled in. The bellmouth can be screwed easily into the EFLEX.

EFLEX Clamp (connector)

If EFLEX units are fitted to a terminal box, use the EFLEX clamps aas shown in the Figure.
A hole such aas that indiacated in the Table below should be opened on the EFELX fiting plane of the terminal box to match the diameter of EFLEX used.

A New Multi-hole Pipe of Unit-type Pursuing Work Laborsaving and Cost Reduction.

The information box project, the so-called C·C·Box Project, is being promoted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport, aimed at “promotion of underground laying of electric cables” as well as “early realization of advanced information society.” To respond to such demands of the times, Furukawa Electric has developed a multi-hole pipe of synthetic resin as a cable duct material using recycled plastics. We hope the customer will make use of our materials system for underground cable laying that we have developed in pursuit of work laborsaving, shortening of work periods and cost reduction.

Thanks to Its Weight Only 25% of Concrete Trough in Addition to Its Superior Workability, Green-Trough Promises Shortening of Working Period and Reduction of Working Costs.

GREEN-TROUGH

Waste plastics from electric wire and cable sheathes that were conventionally disposed of as industrial waste are recycled to be born again as this cable protection trough. Thanks to its superior impact resistance, high resistance against salt and chemicals along with flame retardance, Green-Trough can be used for a long time with excellent stability. It also offers outstanding workability and a possible reduction in construction period due to its light weight, and reduces the exchange work of troughs thus helping to reduce industrial waste as well as to preserve resources
