XW 90° x 12° STANDARD RADIUS ELBOWS - ABOVE GROUND

Engineered to exceed industry standards, our XW Extra Heavy Wall (XW) Conduit is the premier choice for installations requiring superior impact strength, corrosion resistance, and reliable protection in hazardous areas. Designed to meet the strict requirements of NEC Article 355.10F, this robust conduit is ideal for Class I, Division 2 hazardous locations and settings prone to high impact or corrosive conditions. Industries such as wastewater treatment, where chemical exposure and physical damage risks are common, rely on XW conduit for its proven durability and compliance with strict safety standards. Additionally, utility companies widely utilize XW conduit to protect sensitive infrastructure such as fiber-optic cables in both above-ground and under-bridge applications, where reliability is essential.

Unmatched Strength

With a thick .250-inch wall, XW conduit is ID (Inside Diameter) sized to provide optimal balance between strength and functionality. This formidable wall thickness offers a unique level of protection, proven to withstand impacts that would compromise standard conduits—it has even been shown to stop a .45 caliber bullet fired from a distance of 20 feet. This impact resistance provides confidence and security in installations where the risk of physical damage is high, such as heavy industrial environments or exposed outdoor settings.

Effortless Installation 

Each XW conduit size is supplied with a Straight Socket connection, ensuring a straightforward and secure installation. This built-in feature enhances the ease of use and helps to speed up the installation process, allowing for quicker deployment in time-sensitive projects. The robust connection mechanism also contributes to the conduit’s durability, offering an extra layer of security in high-impact and high-stress locations.

For applications requiring bends or directional changes, XW 90° x 12° Standard Radius Elbows are available for above-ground installations. These elbows are crafted with the same extra-heavy wall specifications, ensuring that the strength and resilience of your conduit system remain uncompromised, even in the most challenging configurations. These elbows make it easy to navigate complex installation requirements while maintaining the trusted durability and impact resistance of the XW line.
