Carlon® Micro-Gard™ is mini-duct that can be
installed into empty or occupied duct structures via jetting,
blowing or pulling installation methods. Additionally,
very small cable, known as micro-cable, can be installed
inside the Micro-Gard product via the same methods.
Micro-Gard Mini-Ducts are similar to standard HDPE
inner duct, but manufactured using P3408 pressure resin
rated at 3300 PSI to resist relatively higher air pressures
and pulling tensions on these smaller ducts. The relatively
smaller duct size creates potential installation conditions
that are more strenuous requiring higher product performance
characteristics in areas such as burst pressures, minimum
bending, pulling tensile and dimensional control that
can be more critical than with larger HDPE inner duct.
Carlon has worked extensively with other leading industry
partners to develop a product with performance characteristics
to handle both jetting/blowing and pulling environments.
A full compliment of installation accessories and fittings
provides a complete system solution.
Key Features:
- 10 mm, 12 mm, and 16 mm sizes - provides application
flexibility. 12 and 16 mm sizes are recommended for
pulling or jetting; 10 mm is recommended for jetting
- Low sliding friction - aids in pulling and jetting
of Micro-Gard and micro-cables
- High tensile strength material - allows for longer
pulling distances; reducing installation costs
- Variety of colors/ stripes for identification -
paralleling available
- Sequential footage markings - determines distance
of installation and reduces waste
- Pre-installed pull line optional (10 mm ID and larger)
- allows pulling of micro-cable
- High burst pressure rated material - allows for
jetting installation and increases duct integrity
for a high quality, low-cost installation
- UV-formulated material - for outside storage conditions
- Complete System of Duct, Couplings, Terminations,
Pulling Eyes, Pulling Harness and Cutters
