Champion
Duct® Conduit
Product Overview
Champion Duct® (RTRC) electrical conduit offers dependability through quality design and unmatched versatility. Below ground, concrete encased, underbridge – and almost anywhere in between – Champion Duct delivers a range of benefits over other rigid electrical raceway conduit materials like PVC-coated steel and thin wall EMT conduit pipe, including ease of installation, fire and corrosion resistance, excellent impact resistance and more.
Champion Duct
Advantages
Champion Duct Conduit offers the following benefits:
Lower installation costs
- The lowest man-hour installation rates for most diameters of electrical duct according to the National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA) Manual of Labor Units
- Lower total installation costs (labor plus material costs) for most diameters
Enhanced performance over the other conduit systems
- Light weight contributes to installation ease, savings and safety
- Corrosion resistance to many chemicals
- No burn-through on elbows
- One of the lowest coefficients of friction of any in-market product
- Ability to retain its shape after impact or compression
- Withstands extreme conditions and temperatures
- Cable fault resistance —fiberglass duct will not melt or weld the wire to the inside of the conduit under fault conditions
- Extended UL Listed support spacing distances rival rigid steel conduit support spans.
