Product Information

Full details

The Loops D-Shape Cable Trunking is the ideal solution for homeowners and office managers looking to eliminate unsightly clutter by concealing AV, Ethernet, and speaker cables along walls or skirting boards. Offering a sleek, low-profile design that blends into any interior, this trunking simplifies cable management with a user-friendly snap-seal hinge and durable, paintable finish; however, users should measure their cable volume carefully, as the 16mm x 8mm dimensions are best suited for thinner, individual or bundled wires rather than thick power cords.

FAQs

Can this conduit be used for power cables?

This trunking is best suited for low-voltage data and AV cables. Consult local electrical regulations before running high-voltage mains power cables through plastic conduits.

Is the adhesive backing strong enough for brick walls?

Adhesive backing is primarily designed for smooth, flat, painted surfaces. For brick or rough concrete, we recommend using mechanical fasteners.

Can I cut this with a standard kitchen knife?

No, it is recommended to use a fine-tooth handsaw or a professional trunking cutting tool to ensure a straight, clean cut.

Will the plastic yellow over time?

The product is constructed from UV-stabilised PVC, which is specifically designed to resist discolouration and yellowing when exposed to natural light.

How many cables can fit inside?

It fits approximately 2-3 standard-thickness Ethernet or AV cables, depending on their flexibility and connector size.

Troubleshooting

Trunking detaching from the wall

Clean the surface thoroughly before re-application, or use additional mechanical fixings like small screws if the wall surface is textured or porous.

Hinge will not snap shut

Ensure that the cables inside are not bunched up and that no wires are caught between the hinge flaps, preventing a flush closure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions:

  1. Measure the length of the wall section and mark the trunking accordingly.
  2. Cut the trunking to the desired length using a fine-tooth handsaw or a dedicated D-line cutting tool for a clean edge.
  3. Ensure the target wall surface is clean, dry, and free of dust or oils to maximize the efficacy of the adhesive backing.
  4. Peel the protective backing strip and press the trunking firmly into place.
  5. Insert cables and snap the hinge shut to secure.

Compatibility: Compatible with most home and office wall types, including painted drywall, wood trim, and skirting boards.

Care: Clean with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dust. If you choose to paint the conduit, use a light coat of standard emulsion paint to ensure the finish remains smooth.
