The Pliospire PE 3 spiral conduit from Ses-Sterling is a flexible protective element for cables and lines, used in electrical and IT installations. It provides mechanical protection and enables orderly cable routing in indoor and outdoor environments. The conduit is black and supplied in a packaging length of 50 metres. It is made of polyethylene (PE), ensuring high resistance to environmental influences such as moisture and UV radiation. The spiral design allows for easy installation and adaptation to different routing conditions.
Spiral conduit
The Pliospire PE 3 is a spiral-shaped protective element, distinguished by its flexibility and tensile strength. The spiral structure allows for elastic extension and compression, enabling adaptation to various routing geometries. The use of polyethylene (PE) ensures high chemical resistance and durability against mechanical stress. The black colour is standard and offers discreet visual integration into installations.
Applications
The conduit is suitable for use in electrical installations, IT infrastructure, and industrial plant assembly. It is frequently used for routing data cables, control lines, or electrical cables in enclosed spaces, distribution boxes, or along wall and ceiling surfaces. The PE material composition also makes it suitable for outdoor use, particularly in areas with low mechanical stress.
Functions and equipment in detail
The conduit provides effective protection against mechanical damage, such as scratches, pressure, or friction, which may occur during installation or operation. The spiral construction ensures high flexibility, allowing it to be easily wrapped around cable reels, pipes, or other structures. The packaging length of 50 metres enables efficient routing without frequent connection points. The weight of 4 grams per metre is low, facilitating handling and installation.
Technology explained simply
The conduit is made of polyethylene, a thermoplastic polymer known for its high resistance to moisture, UV radiation, and chemical influences. The spiral shape allows for extension and compression, adapting to different routing conditions. The black colour is not only aesthetic but also functional, as it absorbs UV radiation better and thus slows down material ageing. The low mass of 4 g per metre reduces the load on routing structures.
Compatibility and accessories
The Pliospire PE 3 is designed for cables with a diameter of 1.5 to 7 mm, with precise fit ensured by the elastic spiral structure. It can be combined with other protective conduits or cable tie combinations to ensure structured and secure cable routing. Common practice includes using it with cable ties or mounting clips to fix the conduit to the routing surface.
Installation and mounting
Installation is performed by simply sliding the conduit over the cables to be protected. The spiral structure allows for easy stretching, enabling the conduit to be pulled over the cables. At ends or bends, it can be secured with cable ties or special mounting clips to ensure stable positioning. The packaging length of 50 metres allows continuous routing without additional connections.
Operational advantages
The conduit provides durable mechanical protection for cables and lines, extending the service life of installed wiring. The PE material composition ensures high resistance to environmental influences, which is particularly beneficial in outdoor applications. The simple installation and low weight facilitate handling and reduce installation effort. The black colour ensures unobtrusive integration into technical installations.
