It's like fighting an evil snake

Needless to say, his wire loom. The real fun begins when you try to straighten it. I think this is what it will be like to fight an anaconda. Thick material, looks like it will weather the weather if properly sealed.

Pros
  • The best in his niche
Cons
  • Big and bulky

Works great in wet and extreme weather.

As always, it worked perfectly. Very elastic, thick sleeve. Very easy to use and install. The smooth inner lining makes it very easy to pull the wire. Works great as far as being waterproof. Durability in extreme weather conditions.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Mostly good, but...

Works perfectly. The same quality I would pay 3x more for in a big store.

Definitely a high quality and very durable product. It wants to keep its shape, but you're *not* going to accidentally bend or break it - trust me, I've tried. I am very satisfied and safe knowing that this protects the Romex going from my radon fan to the switch.

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Good but not great

i really like it for electrical boxes, wiring and fittings

Good product for outdoor watertight connections. Used for music wiring in the pool and wiring and lighting on our patio. The only thing I would recommend is to unroll the blade and stretch it out over a couple of days to make it easier to use and install as it is difficult to keep it loose when rolled up to cross beams etc. to move.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Low maintenance

Sturdy conduit but stiff and hardly flexible

Flexible conduit is fine and certainly very durable and (when installed) seemingly weatherproof. My only gripe and the reason I deducted a star is that this canal is extremely stiff and difficult to manage in short sections. In general I'd suggest unrolling the coil as much as possible and maybe leaving it on the pavement or pavement to warm up a bit before attempting to use it.

Pros
  • Sturdy design
Cons
  • Unnecessary features

i really like it on control boxes, pipes and fittings

Good product for watertight connections for the outdoor area. Used for music wiring in the pool and wiring and lighting on our patio. The only thing I would recommend is to unroll the blade and stretch it out over a couple of days to make it easier to use and install as it is difficult to keep it loose when rolled up to cross beams etc. to move.

Pros
  • Pipes seal water, liquids, abrasives, alcohol, coolants, corrosive vapors and gases, grease, mineral acids, mineral oils, salty air and splashes
Cons
  • Newer model could have been chosen

Sturdy cable duct but stiff and hardly flexible

Flexible cable duct is fine and certainly very strong and (when installed) clearly weatherproof. My only gripe and the reason I deducted a star is that this canal is extremely stiff and difficult to manage in short sections. In general I'd suggest unrolling the coil as much as possible and maybe leaving it on the pavement or pavement to warm up a bit before attempting to use it.

Pros
  • Smooth interior for easy cable feeding
Cons
  • Requires socket

Excellent flexible conduit

I like this concept as it is a bit easier to use than a traditional rigid conduit. A few things to note if this needs to be opened up: Flexible pipe is quite difficult to stay straight when installed as it is twisted and retains some of that memory. So despite my efforts to pull and install the pipeline, a wave remains. The product is easy to cut with an office knife. It is very easy to route cables through this product, even in corners. Great seller - product fully corresponds to the…

Pros
  • Ideal for wet and outdoor areas as well as direct burial
Cons
  • Not sure
