Features of Casing And Capping
From its physical properties such as material strength to durability, and from chemical composition that makes it non-conductive in nature to non-reaction to various chemicals, which makes them reliable for industries too, uPVC casing and capping have a widespread use.
These components have several important features and characteristics:
- Lightweight: uPVC is a synthetic plastic material that is lightweight. The product is resistant to moisture, chemicals, and corrosion, which makes it an excellent choice for electrical applications.
- Double locking: The double locking feature boosts the security aspect of casing and capping installation with primary and secondary mechanisms. The primary locking is secured with clips, other fasteners, during the mounting of the structure. While the secondary locking is achieved with grooves, other snap-on features, which are inside the capping and casing and help in securing the placement of wire and not letting it come in contact with other wires in the system. This provides stability and keeps the system safe.
- Easy installation: uPVC casing and capping are relatively easy to install. They can be cut to the required length, easily secured in place, and with snap-on or clip-on features installation is hassle-free.
- Protection: uPVC casing and capping provide physical protection to electrical wires and cables, preventing damage from environmental factors, such as moisture, dust, and physical impact. They also help prevent accidental contact with live wires, enhancing safety.
- Insulation: uPVC is an insulating material, which means it helps prevent electrical conduction. This is essential for keeping wires and cables separate and safe from electrical interactions, which are hazardous.
- Durability: uPVC is a durable material and has a long life as compared to other materials used for the same purpose. It can withstand exposure to UV radiation, temperature variations, and harsh environmental conditions without significant degradation, keeping the overall safety of the system intact.
- Available in different shapes and sizes: These components come in various sizes and shapes to fit the requirement of different wire and cable sizes, making them versatile for a range of applications.
- Colour options: uPVC casing and capping are available in different colours, which can help with colour-coding and maintenance of electrical systems, as well as enhancing the aesthetic quality of the place.
- Heat resistant: Many PVC products are heat-resistant, which adds an extra layer of safety in case of a fire. PVC is also a non-conductive material, hence it doesn’t conduct electricity. This property is essential in preventing accidental electrical shocks.
- Chemical resistance: PVC is resistant to many chemicals, which can be important in certain industrial or chemical environments.
- Cost-effective: PVC casing and capping are affordable. In addition to that, the long life, easy to transport, handle, install and maintain saves time, money, labour cost, making them a cost-effective solution in the electrical wiring system.
- Weatherproof: Our high-quality wire casing patti are designed to withstand exposure to various weather conditions, including UV radiation, rain, humidity, and temperature fluctuations. UV-stabilized PVC is also used for outdoor applications because it can resist damage from sunlight.
Understanding casing & capping needs
uPVC casing and capping is a rectangular strip inside which the wires are placed, covered with a cap and then installed in a building, providing a protective layer. Apart from safety, this method ensures good usage of the space. With availability of casing in different colours, the aesthetic appeal of the place is enhanced as well.
Where You Can Use This Product?
Applications
- Open wiring in residential and commercial buildings: In contemporary designs of buildings, casing and capping of wires is ubiquitous. This has multiple benefits, from costing to providing an aesthetic to the place that blends with the design of the space. This is achieved with an additional texture of colours that are now available to casing and capping designs.
- Telecommunication sector: For the wiring needs in the telecommunication sector, casing and capping provides efficient networks of connection, which is reliable on the parameter of durability and offers a good level of protection for long.
- False ceiling and Sleeving: Casing and capping wiring works efficiently in false ceilings and sleeving as the design capabilities provide options for the same. This is achieved with appropriate tools, accessories, measurements, wires and secured casing and capping pipes.
- LAN cabling and networking: Casing and capping works well in wires now used for faster data transmission needs of the modern times, ensuring optimal performance for the information highways envisaged while designing the networking models.
