Panduit Corp Corrugated Loom Tubing Slit Wall Polyet

Designed by Panduit Corp, corrugated loom tubing slit wall polyet provides robust cable protection with effortless routing. This tubing is ideal for harness assembly in automotive, industrial automation, and electrical panel installations. The slit-wall design enables you to open the tube along its length with a simple pinch, allowing you to insert or reorganize wires without disassembling connectors or unplugging components. The corrugated exterior offers excellent abrasion resistance and flexibility, letting you route cables through tight spaces while maintaining structural integrity. Made from polyethylene (polyet), the tubing stays lightweight, resists moisture and many chemicals, and maintains its shape under temperature fluctuations. Whether you’re building a new wiring harness or upgrading an existing system, this loom tubing helps you achieve clean, organized, and durable cable management.

• Effortless installation with slit-wall design: The slit along the wall of the tubing makes it easy to add, remove, or reorganize wires and cables without disconnecting equipment, reducing installation time and maintenance downtime.
• Rigid protection with flexible routing: The corrugated construction delivers superior abrasion resistance while remaining pliable enough to navigate complex routing paths around equipment, edges, and corners.
• Lightweight polyethylene construction: Polyet material offers a balance of strength and lightness, facilitating manual handling, easy cutting to length, and compatibility with standard accessories without adding excessive bulk.
• Versatile sizing and compatibility: Available in a range of diameters and lengths to accommodate various wire harness configurations, from small automotive looms to larger industrial installations, ensuring a perfect fit for your project.
• Reliable protection in challenging environments: The loom tubing guards cables against dirt, moisture, dust, and abrasion, helping to extend the life of harnesses in harsh manufacturing floors, outdoor installations, and high-traffic settings.

How to Install Panduit Corrugated Loom Tubing Slit Wall Polyet

• Plan and measure: Assess the routing path and determine the total length required. Include extra material for bends and turns to prevent overstressing wires.
• Cut to length: Use a sharp utility knife or tubing snips to make clean, straight cuts. Remove any burrs to avoid snagging on wires or components.
• Open the slit: Gently pry open the slit along the wall of the tubing to create a channel for your wires. The slit-wall design makes this step quick and minimizes disruption to existing connections.
• Insert wires and harnesses: Beginning at one end, align and slide wires into the tubing through the slit. If needed, pop wires in from the side and press the slit shut around them, ensuring a snug fit without compressing conductors.
• Secure and route: Once wires are inside, route the tubing along the intended path. Use cable ties, clamps, or end caps as required to maintain position and prevent movement due to vibration or movement.
• Finish and inspect: Check for sharp edges, ensure the ends are protected with appropriate end fittings or sealing methods, and confirm that the harness remains flexible without kinking at corners or bends.

Frequently asked questions
