PVC Schedule 80 Conduit

PVC Schedule 80 conduit is the extra heavy wall version of rigid PVC raceway, specifically identified for use in areas subject to physical damage per NEC 352.12(C). With thicker walls and the same outside diameter as Schedule 40, Schedule 80 provides additional impact resistance and crush strength for demanding above-ground and below-ground installations. Galloway stocks PVC Schedule 80 conduit from manufacturers like Prime Conduit and Atkore (Heritage Plastics).

Features

The specifications below separate what Schedule 80 shares with Schedule 40 — listings, ratings, and PVC properties — from what the extra wall changes: Added impact and crush resistance, the same outside diameter and fittings, and a smaller inside diameter.

  • ink_highlighter

Ribbon - High Fiber Count Backbone & Trunk

Fujikura Ribbon Fiber Splicing kit 6-22-26-8089 Medium

 

  • For high-density backbone and trunk, hyperscale data center interconnect, and central office / carrier-hotel cabling

  • Fiber counts from 144 to 6,912+; outside diameter is critical for duct-fill calculations

  • Standard matrix, rollable, and intermittently bonded ribbon (IBR) constructions; rollable / IBR allows higher packing density in a smaller diameter

  • 12-fiber mass-fusion splicing dramatically reduces splice time vs. single-fiber splicing

  • Single jacket, double jacket, armored, or all-dielectric construction

Flat Drop - Last-Mile FTTH

  • Flat self-supporting design for last-mile drops to home or business---aerial self-support or direct-buried final span

  • 1, 2, 4, 6, and 12-fiber counts; G.657.A2 bend-tolerant fiber typical; compatible with standard wedge clamps and closure strain reliefs

  • Toneable (copper toner) variant locates buried drops after install without digging; all-dielectric version also available

  • MDPE outdoor jacket with flame-retardant option for indoor transition; pre-connectorized (OptiTap / hardened) or bulk reel; RUS (RDUS)-listed options available
