The Evcco Smart-Bend by Albatech has been designed to provide a flexible solution to rigid conduit bends.
The product, which is available in a range of colours (orange, white, black and grey), consists of segmented bends that ‘snap-lock’ together to provide an assembled bend of varying angles. Produced in a range of 40 to 150 mm, they can be assembled in segments from 7.5 to 90° or beyond and can also be adjusted to provide compounded angles, which are important when connecting misaligned wall or floor penetrations. The halogen-free product can also be assembled segment by segment over a preformed cable helping to minimise injuries associated with pulling cable through formed bends.
The company claims the product is 40% lighter in material weight than other formed PVC bends and offers a solid core construction. Manufactured under ISO9001 and ISO14001, the product complies with AS/NZS2053-200 standards and also comes with a range of HFT conduit and fittings.
