Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the inner diameter of this pipe?

The inner diameter is 21.3mm.

Can this pipe be used near the exhaust manifold?

While it is rated up to +130°C, direct contact with exhaust components should be avoided as temperatures there often exceed the rating.

Is this pipe waterproof?

The pipe is designed for protection against physical damage and general environmental exposure, but the slotted design is not airtight or fully waterproof.

Does the bending radius affect its performance?

The 40mm bending radius ensures the pipe maintains its circular profile without collapsing, protecting the wires inside even when bent around corners.

Is this product suitable for household electrical wiring?

It is primarily engineered for automotive applications; ensure it meets local building codes if considering it for other uses.

Troubleshooting

Pipe pops open along the slot

Ensure the wire bundle diameter is not exceeding the pipe capacity and apply additional cable ties at the tension points.

Difficulty threading wires

Use a small amount of non-conductive lubricant or slightly expand the slot manually as you feed the wire through.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High thermal tolerance ensures durability in hot engine compartments
  • Slotted design significantly reduces installation time
  • Halogen-free material complies with modern safety standards
  • Maintains structural integrity under vibration and mechanical stress

Cons

  • Limited to a 22mm nominal diameter which may not fit thicker cable looms
  • Requires careful measurement of cable bundle diameter before purchase
  • Rigidity may increase slightly in extreme sub-zero temperatures

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, simply feed your wires through the lateral slot along the pipe's length. For secure routing, it is recommended to use cable ties at 20-30cm intervals to prevent the pipe from shifting due to vehicle vibration. Always verify that the inner diameter (21.3mm) accommodates your wire bundle without excessive compression, as overly tight fits can cause insulation strain. To clean, use a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water; avoid harsh solvents that could degrade the polymer construction over time. Store the unused pipe in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain material flexibility.
