Overview

The ABB Installation Products Snap-N-Stac SP4W20-1 is a robust, non-metallic one-way combo spacer designed for efficient and reliable underground duct bank installations. Manufactured from highly engineered thermoplastic, this spacer offers exceptional strength, durability, and resistance to corrosion, ensuring longevity in demanding environments. Its innovative one-piece design replaces conventional two-piece base and intermediate spacer systems, significantly reducing inventory requirements and simplifying the installation process. The SP4W20-1 features a 4-inch duct size capacity and provides a 2-inch duct-to-duct separation, crucial for maintaining proper conductor spacing and compliance with electrical codes. The Snap-N-Stac system boasts an exclusive vertical locking mechanism and a horizontal interlocking system that allows spacers of any size to connect securely, regardless of configuration. This facilitates the creation of complex duct bank layouts, including three-way and five-way configurations by combining one-way spacers. The spacer can be installed horizontally or turned upright for versatile duct bank designs. Its non-metallic, non-corrosive, and non-conductive properties make it ideal for direct burial applications and environments where electrical conductivity is a concern. The SP4W20-1 is a critical component for utility and industrial electrical contractors and engineers seeking to optimize their underground installations with a fast, easy-to-handle, and cost-effective solution. Each unit is designed for straightforward integration into existing or new duct bank systems, contributing to faster project completion and reduced labor costs.
