RAILduct™ is an HDPE moulded cable trough system. Weighing under 15kg but capable of of taking loads imparted by vehicular traffic, RAILduct™ offers significant advantages in health and safety, speed of installation and flexibility.
Most importantly, laying RAILduct™ is typically 5 times faster than traditional concrete units, reducing the total cost of installation.
1 metre long sections are connected using the unique Twist and Lock jointing mechanism which allows a small amount of movement to follow gentle curves in the track.
RAILduct™ has been installed in many rail applications throughout the world and in different extremes of temperatures. It has also been adapted for projects in power and highways applications.
