Overview

The ABB SP5W30-2 Snap-N-Stac™ combo spacer is a high-impact polystyrene (HIPS) two-way duct spacer designed for efficient underground duct bank installations. This non-metallic, non-corrosive spacer replaces conventional two-piece base and intermediate spacers with a single-unit design, reducing material and labor costs while improving installation speed. The SP5W30-2 accommodates 5" ducts with a 3" center-to-center spacing (horizontal and vertical), ensuring proper cable separation and airflow in demanding concrete-encased installations. Key specifications include a 5.5" duct outer diameter (O.D.) compatibility, 15.5 lb standard weight per unit, and a standard carton quantity of 14 units. The spacer features an exclusive vertical locking system and horizontal interlocking capability, allowing spacers to connect side-by-side regardless of size. Molded-in rebar holders on two-way configurations provide additional stability during concrete pouring. The thermoplastic construction withstands concrete rigors while remaining non-conductive and corrosion-resistant. Ideal for industrial and commercial underground duct banks, the SP5W30-2 installs horizontally, vertically, or upright for unique configurations. Its one-piece design eliminates the need for separate base and intermediate spacers, streamlining inventory management. Compatible with 2" to 6" duct sizes through reducer accessories, this spacer supports versatile duct bank layouts. Trust ABB's installation product expertise for reliable cable management in power distribution, telecommunications, and utility applications where organized, code-compliant spacing is critical.
