Cable Troughing & Ducting
Jointing Tech supplies cable troughing and ducting solutions for protecting, managing and routing cables across rail, utility, industrial and infrastructure projects. Our range includes lightweight polymer cable-trough systems and accessories designed to provide a practical alternative to traditional concrete troughing in suitable applications.
Cable troughing helps keep cables contained, protected and accessible along a route. Whether you are planning a new cable run, upgrading an existing route or specifying products for a demanding rail or infrastructure environment, we can help you identify a suitable troughing or ducting solution.
Cable troughing and ducting provide a defined route for cables and can help protect them from damage, environmental exposure and unauthorised disturbance. The appropriate solution depends on the cable type, cable quantity, route length, site conditions, access requirements, expected loading and relevant project or asset-owner specifications.
Polymer cable troughing can offer handling and installation advantages where a lightweight solution is appropriate. Compared with traditional concrete systems, lightweight trough sections may be easier to transport and position, helping reduce manual-handling demands and installation time. The final product selection should always reflect the specific route design, access needs and load requirements.
Plan the cable route before installation. Confirm the trough or duct dimensions, bend requirements, changes in level, access points, lid requirements, cable separation and future capacity. Where cables enter buildings, cabinets, chambers or other structures, consider suitable duct-sealing systems to protect the entry point.
Cable troughing is often used alongside cable protection and location products, cable pulling equipment, cable cleats and suitable fixings. For rail projects, confirm the applicable asset-owner requirements and product acceptance before specifying or ordering.
For support with a troughing or ducting enquiry, provide the cable route drawings, cable size and quantity, site environment, required route length, access requirements and any relevant project specification.
FAQs
What is cable troughing used for?
Cable troughing provides a protected and accessible route for cables along rail, utility, industrial and infrastructure installations.
What are the advantages of polymer cable troughing?
In suitable applications, polymer troughing can be lighter to transport and handle than traditional concrete troughing, which may support faster installation and reduce handling demands.
How do I choose the right cable trough size?
Consider the number, size and bend radius of cables, future capacity, access needs, route conditions, lid requirements and the project specification.
Do I need duct sealing with cable troughing or ducting?
Duct sealing may be required where cable routes enter structures, chambers, enclosures or buildings and environmental ingress needs to be controlled.
