Boddingtons Electrical Black High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Anti-Vandal Cable Guard
- Cable Guard provides excellent protection against vandalism, with a strong balance of rigidity and high impact strength. Cable Guard is designed to protect electrical cables and pipe work on telegraph poles and walls.
- Please note this item is classed as Non-Conveyable , Exceeding Dimensions and Oversize therefore shipping costs reflect the couriers additional charges
- Protection of vertical/horizontal cable runs on wooden poles, fences, and walls
- Manufactured from HDPE which provides excellent protection against vandalism, and a strong balance of rigidity and high impact strength
- High-density polyethylene or polyethylene high-density is a thermoplastic polymer produced from monomer ethylene. HDPE has proven to be a stronger, more stable material than most plastics, wood, and even metal. It's impact-resistant, so it can stand up to the pressures and elements of your facility. ... HDPE won't scratch or dent, so you don't have to have replacements on-hand
- Can also be used to protect other utility supplies on walls i.e. gas, oil, water
- Supplied with screw fixing holes for easy installation
- Lightweight and easily transported
- With UV and flame retardant additives
Polyethylene for Molding Applications
General-purpose HDPE resin, characterized by very easy processability.
An excellent balance of rigidity and impact strength and good ESCR
