American Conduit offers the best aluminum conduit pipe electrical wiring solutions in the industry. Whether you choose our PullEase™ EMT (electrical metallic tubing) or RMC (rigid metal conduit), you can rest assured that your conduit will stand the test of time. You can use our products with 100 percent confidence, whether you install them inside or out. These are some of the many features you’ll find in American Conduit products.
Corrosion Resistance
One of the primary contributors to the extended lifespan of American Conduit products is that they naturally resist corrosion. Unlike certain metals that are susceptible to rust and deterioration when exposed to moisture or harsh environmental conditions, aluminum naturally forms a protective oxide layer.
This oxide layer acts as a barrier, shielding the conduit pipe from corrosive elements. As a result, aluminum conduit pipes demonstrate remarkable durability even in challenging environments, contributing to their long-term performance.
Durability in Diverse Environments
American Conduit products stand up to a variety of environments, making them suitable for a broad range of applications. Whether installed in outdoor settings exposed to the elements, corrosive industrial environments, or buried underground, our aluminum conduit withstands the challenges posed by diverse conditions. Their resistance to environmental stressors, including moisture, chemicals and UV radiation, ensures that they maintain their structural integrity over time, contributing to an extended lifespan.
Low Maintenance Requirements
Even though American Conduit products need little to no maintenance, they’re still durable. Other materials need frequent inspections, coatings, or replacements. But our aluminum conduit only needs minimal upkeep. The corrosion resistance of aluminum eliminates the need for protective coatings or frequent interventions, reducing maintenance costs and contributing to the overall cost-effectiveness of electrical installations over the long term.
Temperature Resilience
American Conduit products also excel in maintaining their performance across a wide temperature range. From extreme heat to frigid cold, aluminum retains its structural stability and electrical properties. It actually gains strength as it gets colder. This resilience to temperature fluctuations ensures that the conduit remains reliable in diverse climates, contributing to their longevity in installations where temperature variations are a consideration.
Impact and Mechanical Strength
The robust mechanical strength of aluminum conduit adds another layer to their lifespan advantage. Our conduit can withstand physical impacts, vibrations, and mechanical stresses without losing their strength. In environments where the conduit may be subjected to external forces or potential impacts, the durability of aluminum ensures that the conduit maintains its protective function over an extended period.
Sustainable Lifecycle
American Conduit products aren’t only durable, they’ll also align perfectly with your company’s sustainability goals. Since our products last so long, you won’t have to replace them nearly as often as conduit made of lesser materials. This minimizes the environmental impact associated with the production and disposal of materials. Aluminum, as a highly recyclable material, adds an extra layer of sustainability, as it can be recycled at the end of your conduit’s life cycle, contributing to resource conservation and responsible waste management.
As industries continue to prioritize longevity and efficiency, the choice of aluminum conduit emerges as a strategic and forward-thinking investment in the reliability and sustainability of installations.
