A slotted cable duct is a type of cable duct that has a regularly slotted structure on both sides of the duct body. It is mainly used for organizing, fixing, and protecting cables and wires. This design allows the wires to be drawn out from any slotted section, enhancing the flexibility of the wiring, while also facilitating identification, layering, and future maintenance.
Slotted cable ducts are typically made of insulating materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), ABS, or flame-retardant modified plastics. Structurally, they usually consist of a bottom duct and a cover plate, which can be quickly opened and closed during installation, significantly improving construction efficiency.
A slotted PVC cable duct is a type of slotted cable duct, specifically referring to a slotted duct made from PVC as the main material. PVC material has excellent insulation, flame retardancy, and processing properties, making it one of the most widely used materials for slotted ducts. In terms of material properties, it is more suitable for cost control and general industrial use, especially excelling in distribution boxes, weak electrical systems, and industrial control cabinets.
PVC material has good flame-retardant properties and can self-extinguish when burned, reducing the risk of fire. High-quality PVC also complies with environmental directives such as RoHS, ensuring safer usage.
PVC slotted cable ducts have outstanding resistance to chemical corrosion, making them suitable for use in humid or dusty industrial environments. Their insulation capability also makes wiring safer and more reliable.
Compared to metal cable ducts, PVC slotted cable ducts are lighter, easier to cut, drill, and install on-site, significantly saving labor and construction time, thus offering better cost-effectiveness.
Slotted PVC cable ducts are widely used in automation control cabinets, PLC panels, communication cabinets, distribution boxes, building weak electrical systems, and other scenarios, covering almost all electrical systems that require neat and safe wiring. Especially in control panels, their slotted structure can clearly display circuit paths, improving maintenance efficiency.
