Overview

The ABB S289NFN is a 4 x 1 inch intermediate duct spacer manufactured by ABB - Installation Products, designed for secure and efficient installations of non-metallic ducts. Constructed from high-impact polystyrene, this spacer offers robust durability for industrial applications. Its innovative Snap-Loc design features tapered joining slots with maximum tolerances, ensuring easy job site assembly and horizontal stability through a side dovetail rail-and-groove system. The S289NFN incorporates locking keyways, eliminating the need for separate top spacers and allowing for the use of a beaded strap to secure the top section of conduit. This intermediate spacer is specifically engineered for use with non-metallic ducting, adhering to NEMA TC-2, TC-6 & 8 and ASTM F512 standards for maximum O.D. dimensions. The dimensions for the S289NFN are A=5.51 inches, C=6.75 inches, and D=4.63 inches, with a standard carton quantity of 70 units. It provides consistent separation and relieves direct stress for duct materials, particularly in concrete encasement and direct-burial applications. While ABB is not responsible for Snap-Loc spacers used in direct burial applications without proper engineering design and backfill compaction, the product's design facilitates stable duct banks. The S289NFN is part of the Carlon Snap-Loc spacer series, known for its interlocking capabilities and ease of installation. Note: Spacers are not UL® Listed. For permanent fixing, Carlon Quick-Set cement glue or deformation of the dovetail slide can be employed.
