FRE Composites’ Bullet Resistant rigid nonmetallic fiberglass conduit system products were originally engineered to protect fiber optic cables. Ballistically tested under laboratory conditions, this system is proven to resist damage from small caliber, low velocity projectiles. Today, utilities, D.O.T.s, airports and telecommunication providers use our Bullet Resistant conduit system products to protect all types of cable networks and distribution systems worldwide. All FRE® Bullet Resistant conduit system products are designed to meet high mechanical requirements and advanced product longevity.
ADVANTAGES • Small caliber, low velocity, projectile resistance • Highest strength to weight ratio of any conduit system • Superior load bearing • Lightweight. A 19.68 ft. (6 m) section of 4’’ (102 mm) conduit weighs less than 45 lbs. (20 kg) • Fewer expensive hangers supports and inserts on bridge installations (high flexural strength) • Nonmetallic. Will not rust or corrode • Superior UV and weathering characteristics
FEATURES • Suitable for physical damage locations, above ground and bridge applications • Complete line of fittings and adaptors • Available in 1’’ IPS (25 mm) and 8’’ IPS (203 mm) and 2” ID (51 mm) to 6” ID (152 mm) dimensions • Bell and spigot joint for fast, easy installation • Special colors available on demand • Rigid nonmetallic fiberglass conduits are non-conductive, assuring a safe system ENGINEERING FEATURES • Chemical Inertness. Impervious to a wide spectrum of chemicals and fuels • Contains no chlorine, halogen or other toxic materials • Temperature range from -40°F to +230°F (-40°C to +110°C) • Low coefficient of friction. Smooth inner wall results in longer cable pulls
