Overview

The ABB S288PJN is a 5 x 2 inch Snap-Loc base spacer, manufactured from high-impact polystyrene, designed for secure mounting and precise alignment of non-metallic ducts in industrial applications. This spacer features the innovative Snap-Loc design with tapered joining slots and maximum tolerances for easy job site assembly, ensuring horizontal stability and simplifying installation. The S288PJN offers a 5.84-inch dimension 'A', 7.81-inch dimension 'C', and 5.69-inch dimension 'D' (hole diameter). It is part of the Carlon Snap-Loc spacer system, which provides stability, consistent separation, and relieves direct stress for duct materials encased in concrete and direct-burial applications. The side dovetail rail-and-groove design allows for side-by-side interchangeability of conduit spacer sizes while maintaining horizontal stability. The standard for all base spacers, with the exception of the 4x1-S288NFN, is 3 inches. The S288PJN is sold in a standard carton quantity of 60. ABB is not responsible for Snap-Loc spacers used in direct burial applications; design engineers and contractors are responsible for the design of the installation. Spacers are not UL® Listed. For permanent fixing, Carlon Quick-Set cement glue or deforming the dovetail slide with pliers is recommended. This spacer is ideal for use in electrical panel installations, machinery mounting, and structural component support where reliable duct separation and alignment are critical.
