Less
Friction
Wave-Rib™ Conduit has been tested and proven to
exhibit the lowest friction characteristics. When compared
to smooth wall and straight ribbed conduit, in both
lubricated and unlubricated comparisons, Wave-Rib™
Conduit allowed significantly longer cable installations.
Test results for lubricated conduits, using the BellCore
GR-356-CORE test method, proves that Wave-Rib™
Conduit has 75% less friction when compared to unlubricated
smooth wall conduit.

Applications
Innerduct - dividing larger conduits, typically
3" to 6" diameters, by pulling in two
or more polyethylene conduit, ranging in size
from 1.00" to 1.25" diameters.
Direct Burial Conduit- directly burying
one or more polyethylene conduits to make a single
or multiple conduit system via installation methods
such as trenching, plowing or directionally boring.

WAVE-RIB™
Conduit Does Not Have To Be An Innerduct
Wave-Rib™ Conduit can also be used in direct buried
and concrete encased applications in addition to being
used as an innerduct. It has excellent tensile properties,
good pipe stiffness and superior chemical resistance
making it ideal for direct burial. We offer several
types that are well suited to the direct buried environment
and are frequently installed by various methods such
as: in a trench, plowed into the ground or directionally
bored. Since Wave-Rib™ Conduit is supplied in continuous
lengths on reels or in coils it is ideal for use where
continuous long unbroken lengths are to be placed as
would be the case in plowing and directionally boring
the conduit.

Wide
Range Of Sizes
Wave-Rib™ Conduit is available in sizes ranging
from 1" to 3" inside diameters. Starburst
standard wall thicknesses include Types 9 and 11, and
Wave In standards include Schedule 40, Schedule 80,
SDR 17, SDR 13.5 and SDR 11. Standard colors include
black, red, orange, blue, green and terra cotta. Special
sizes and colors are available upon request.

Easy
To Assemble Multiple Conduit System
ARNCO® offers various spacer and coupling systems
for use in building multiple conduit systems. The spacers
are available in 1.25" and 1.5" sizes. The
multiple conduit system is then pulled off reels assembled
into the spacers above the trench then lowered into
the trench. These operations are made possible due to
the flexibility of the conduit. Shur-Lock™ couplers
are available in 4 sizes from 1" to 2" and
have o-ring seals that are both air and water tight.
The couplers use stainless steel lock rings that offer
excellent pull out strength and are a good choice
for use as transition couplings to go from HDPE to PVC
type conduits.
