Champion Fiberglass electrical conduit (RTRC) offers countless benefits over the alternatives. Fiberglass conduit is durable, corrosion resistant, and can stand up to extreme conditions in applications such as chemical, pipeline, wastewater treatment, utilities, and data centers. It also allows for faster cable pulls and more efficient field installation, resulting in

Every industry has its own electrical cabling challenges, from damp and caustic environments to a high occurrence of elbow burn through when pulling cable. That’s why Champion fiberglass offers a solution designed to help you meet performance requirements, increase safety and lower installation and material costs.

On time and under budget! That’s the dream scenario for any construction-related project. Electrical engineers can help a project reach this achievement by making one crucial decision – specifying Champion Fiberglass as the conduit of choice. When it comes to protecting electrical cables there are a number of different options

In 2016, Champion Fiberglass brought expanded support spacing distances to UL-Listed Haz Duct® XW Type Conduit. In 2017, Champion Duct® Standard Wall (SW), Medium Wall (UL designates Champion Fiberglass MW for 5″ and 6″ as SW) and Heavy Wall (HW) conduit also featured expanded support spacings, making the support span distances of these

Recently, we highlighted Champion Fiberglass’s work with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and National Electrical Code (NEC) to remove opposition to lightweight-yet-strong Champion Fiberglass Haz Duct® XW Type Conduit’s approval for use in Class I, Div 2 applications. This is just one of the instances in which Champion Fiberglass has worked

The updated UL Listings for Champion Fiberglass Duct® and Champion Fiberglass Haz Duct® conduits reflect extended support spacing distances, giving engineers another proof point when specifying Champion Fiberglass conduit. Underwriters Laboratory has conducted independent testing that validates the strength and rigidity of our extended support spacing distances, which are by

The Champion Fiberglass Conduit Calculator is live. This user-friendly tool asks you to enter only three pieces of information: hourly rate, diameter of conduit to be used, and length to be installed. Then choose a conduit material to compare with fiberglass (RTRC). From there, the calculator performs all installation and material cost

If you’re an electrical engineer or contractor, you know it can be challenging to create accurate estimates in cabling projects. In addition, it can be difficult to weigh the total costs of one material versus another. That’s why Champion Fiberglass created two powerful tools to help. Let’s take a look.
