ADVANTAGES
ADVANTAGES
HIGH CORROSION RESISTANCE
ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM is non-corrosive
by nature and are not attacked by
corrosive, salty atmosphere & excessive
humidity. They are immune to chemical
and galvanic corrosion. Hence they are
ideal electrical conduits.
FIRE RESISTANCE
ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM do not support
combustion and when the source of
ignition is removed they are self
extinguishing.
CONDUCTIVITY
ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM is non-conductor
of electricity. ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM
conduit prevents electrical shocks.
Hence they are most suitable for
electrical conduits.
LIGHTWEIGHT
ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM have low specific
gravity, which implies that it is much
lighter than the pipes made from more
traditional materials. ASTRAL Pipes are
therefore easier to handle. This result in
reduced transportation & installation
costs.
EASY WIRING
ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM have smooth
interior walls which helps in reducing the
friction thus helping in easy wiring.
EASY INSTALLATION
ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM can be shaped
and joined without difficulty.
ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM Pipes are joined
by solvent cement, which is simpler,
cheaper & easier.
STRENGTH
ASTRAL WIRE GUARD TM have high
mechanical strength that is attested by
tests conduced as specified in IS 9537: 3.
Hence they can be used both in open /
surface and concealed installation.
NO MAINTENANCE
ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM requires no
maintenance due to its excellent
weather protected properties.
DURABILITY
ASTRAL WIRE GUARD T M electrical
conduit pipes last for a lifetime.
VERSATILE AND ELEGANT
The physical properties of PVC allow
designers a high degree of freedom
while designing. Superior finished
pipes and fittings add a touch of
beauty to the buildings .
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
PVC has a lower feedstock energy
especially compared to other polymers
and common building materials. It is
the least energy intensive of all
thermoplastics. In life cycle analysis
and independent studies, PVC's
environmental impact has been found
most favorable, so the more usage of
PVC will greatly help to keep our global
natural resources intake for longer
period of time. It is not polluting air,
water or land during manufacturing or
service life and can be recycled after
prolonged service life.

RECOMMENDED PRACTICE
ASTRAL WIRE GUARDTM non-metallic conduits are so
constructed that it will be possible to bend the conduit
easily with the aid of bending spring and all conduits and
conduit fittings are of unthreaded type. The number of
single core, PVC insulated non-sheathed cables run in one
conduit shall be such that it permits easy drawing of the

For each size of cable it is intended to use, obtain the appropriate factor from Table 4. Add all the cable factors so obtained and
compare with the conduit factor given in Table 5.
The conduit size which will satisfactorily accommodate the cables is that size having a factor equal to or exceeding the sum of the
cable factor.
