The Pliospire PE 12 Plus spiral conduit from Ses-Sterling is a black-coloured protective conduit for use in electrical and IT installations. It provides mechanical protection and anchoring for cables and lines, particularly in areas where flexible yet robust cable guidance is required. The conduit is designed as a double helix, enabling particularly stable and even cable guidance. The packaging unit includes 25 metres of the conduit, with a weight of 51 grams per metre.
Spiral conduit
The Pliospire PE 12 Plus is a spiral protective conduit made from a flexible yet durable material. The double helix design ensures the conduit wraps evenly around the cables to be protected, providing high guidance accuracy. The black surface is suitable for use in technical installations as well as in industrial and commercial environments, where discreet and robust cable routing is required.
Applications
The conduit is suitable for use in electrical installations, building automation, IT infrastructure, and industrial plant engineering. It can be used both indoors and outdoors, provided the environmental conditions meet the requirements for mechanical load capacity and weather resistance. Typical use is for routing cables with a diameter between 10 and 40 millimetres.
Functions and equipment in detail
The conduit provides mechanical protection for cables and lines against external influences such as pressure, friction, or mechanical stress. The double helix increases stability and prevents cables from shifting or tangling within the conduit. The black colour is not only aesthetic but also functional, as it is UV-resistant and therefore suitable for outdoor use, provided no additional environmental requirements (e.g. chemical resistance) apply.
Technology explained simply
The protective conduit is made from a flexible polymer material that can be easily wrapped around cables, ensuring even guidance. The double helix means two parallel spirals form the conduit, increasing stability and improving cable guidance. The black colour is achieved through pigments in the material, which also enhance UV resistance. The weight of 51 g per metre indicates that the conduit is lightweight and thus does not cause excessive strain even during longer installations.
Compatibility and accessories
The Pliospire PE 12 Plus is designed for cables with a diameter of 10 to 40 millimetres. It can be combined with other products from the Pliospire series, particularly with matching mounting elements or end caps, provided these are available in the manufacturer’s range. Use with other protection systems or cable ties is also possible, provided mechanical requirements are met.
Installation and mounting
Installation is carried out by simply sliding the conduit over the cables to be protected. The double helix enables even distribution of tension and prevents cable movement within the conduit. During installation, care should be taken to avoid excessive compression or stretching of the conduit to ensure functionality and service life. Routing typically occurs along walls, ceilings, or within cable ducts.
Advantages in operation
The conduit offers simple and quick installation, as it can be easily slid over cables. The double helix ensures stable guidance, reducing the risk of cable wear or tangling. The black colour is UV-resistant and therefore suitable for outdoor use. The low weight of 51 g per metre facilitates handling, especially during longer installations.
