Why choose electrical conduits for wiring?

Easy Wire Pulling and Pushing

A significant market differentiator in choosing steel conduit systems is the internal friction of the wall in contact with the wires. The higher the friction, the shorter the distance wires can be pushed or pulled.

Every care is taken to ensure Lonwow conduit sytems are clean and even. Notably, the conduit's internal beads are well controlled, and the fittings interiors are debris free, and sharp edges removed. The interior of Lonwow conduit systems are functional in their grounding / earthing capabilities and the ever essential even, clean interior reduces friction for easy wire pulling and pushing.

Superior Galvanising

Galvanising is the practise by which zinc is metallurgically bonded over a steel substrate to provide protection ot the base metal. Hot dipped galvanising is widely regarded as offering the most superior of corrosion protection available because the zinc coating is very difficult to compromise. The zinc coating provides protection to the steel in two distinct ways:

(i) By shielding the base metal from the atmosphere

(ii) By providing anodic protection in the form of :

· Anode Cathodic Protection

· Zinc Paina Protection

· Chromate Protection

Galvanising is the chosen finish for most of Lonwow conduits and fittings products due to its superior protective advantage. Our galvanised products are manufactured in the following manner :

· Hot Dipped Galvanising - by immersing the finished products into a molten zinc bath of 430 degree celcius. This is the preferred galvanising process for more demanding environments such as heavy industries like oil and gas, underground, airport and seaports.

· Pre Galvanised - coils and sheets that have been zinc coated by a hot dipped process is used to manufacture Lonwow conduits and fittings. In the case of conduits, steel strip from a coil is fed through a continuous zinc coater that cleans, fluxes and coats the steel with molten zinc. After cooling, the steel is recoiled and thereafter manufactured into conduit.

· Electro Galvanising - is the process whereby zinc is electrochemically applied to the finished steel products.

Precise Threading

A precise threading will minimize installation time. Lonwow conduit and fittings precise thread ensures a clean, smooth, perpendicular finish. This ensures a straight coupling position resulting in a continuous conduit line. The perpendicular thread finish facilitates easy fitting of conduit accessories which minimizes installation times.
