ADVANTAGES

Advantages of Scepter Conduit

• Fire resistant: IPEX’s proprietary PVC compound used to manufacture Scepter products is a self-extinguishing material and will not support combustion. Samples taken from an actual fire show the outer surface of the conduit was blistered and charred. The interior of the conduit, however, was unaffected. Additionally, the undamaged conductors were then removed and reinstalled in new conduit. Fire-resistant characteristics when tested to CAN ULC S102.2.
• Nonconducting: Scepter Rigid PVC Conduit pipe and fittings are nonsparking and nonconducting, thereby eliminating the most dangerous ‘second point of contact’ and ‘phase to ground’ faults. The use of a separate grounding conductor in a Scepter PVC conduit system gives a complete and positive ground for the whole system.
