OPTILEX
Fiber Optic, HDPE Conduit - ASTM F2160
Optilex is a conduit made of HDPE (high density polyethylene) by extrusion process, with a smooth outside surface and longitudinal ribs on the inside. It can be supplied in several colors, with or without a stripe.
The main application is for cable protection in underground installations of Optical Fiber, Telecommunication and Power cables.
RAW MATERIAL
The raw material used to produce Optilex is HDPE - High Density Polyethylene, with added antioxidants, UV stabilizers and pigments, which provides
resistance to UV light, chemical products and environmental stress crack (ESCR).
IDENTIFICATION
Optilex is hot stamped on the surface with the following information:
- Manufacturer name
- Product name
- Nominal outside diameter
- Production date
