Executive Summary: Champion Fiberglass® announces the launch of Champ Pull™, a web-based cable pulling calculator designed to support accurate pulling tension analysis for electrical engineers and contractors. Built for project planning and installation support, Champ Pull helps users evaluate pulling tension, sidewall bearing pressure, conduit material comparisons, and other key factors that inform electrical conduit and cable design decisions.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Spring, Texas (August 3, 2026) – Champion Fiberglass® announces the launch of Champ Pull™, a purpose-built conduit fill and cable pulling calculator designed to support accurate pulling tension analysis for electrical engineers and contractors working with electrical conduit systems.
Developed using industry-accepted engineering principles and best practices, Champ Pull provides reliable calculations that help inform conduit and cable design decisions during project planning and installation. The tool is designed for registered users and will be available via a web-based platform delivering clean, organized outputs.
Champ Pull calculations account for continuous and maximum pulling tensions, sidewall bearing pressure (SWBP), tension limits, and jamming probability to help reduce installation risk and support more informed planning. For low-voltage projects, a 600V version is available.
The cable pulling calculator also allows users to evaluate alternate conduit options, including side-by-side comparisons by conduit material. These comparisons include NECA installation hours, coefficient of friction, weight per foot, and estimated number of supports.
“Champ Pull gives engineers and contractors a practical way to evaluate pulling tension and conduit material options during planning,” said Goran Haag, Executive Chairman and Founder at Champion Fiberglass. “The tool reflects our commitment to supporting project teams with reliable information that helps improve design confidence and installation outcomes.”
For projects involving fiberglass conduit, Champ Pull includes coefficient of friction values and Champion Fiberglass data to support accurate material evaluation. The tool also conforms with NEC fill rates and maximum pulling tension, while providing ongoing calculations for pulling tension and SWBP.
Champ Pull is designed to help users compare conduit materials, review installation considerations, and make informed decisions before cable installation begins in the field. By supporting planning around cable pulling tension, sidewall bearing pressure, and conduit layout, our calculator can help reduce installation challenges related to vaults, pull boxes, and cable routing decisions.
Champ Pull will be available to registered users only. To learn more or register for access, visit https://championfiberglass.com/champ-pull-access.

About Champion Fiberglass
Headquartered in Spring, Texas, Champion Fiberglass Inc. is the leading manufacturer of fiberglass conduit, strut, and bridge drain systems to the industrial, electrical, and mechanical markets. With the most advanced production facility for manufacturing fiberglass conduit in North America, the company’s proprietary high-speed winding process and high-temperature curing ovens are key to the consistency and quality of the versatile product offering. Beginning with production of epoxy fiberglass conduit and fittings in 1988, Champion Fiberglass has steadily grown to reach a number of milestones throughout the years.
In 1989, Champion Fiberglass developed the first conduit from epoxy resins with flame resistance and low smoke characteristics, meeting the most stringent codes and specifications. With the arrival of Champion Haz Duct® (XW Type fiberglass conduit) in 2008, the Company began to provide conduit for Class 1, Div 2 installations, per the National Electrical Code (NEC).
Certified ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001, Champion Fiberglass ensures customers the highest quality products and customer satisfaction available in the industry. Champion Fiberglass has been named a CompositesWorld Top Shop for six consecutive years.
