Description

Duct Seal LG Cable Duct Sealing System (Cables < 25mm Ø) - ≤1 Bar Pressure Resistance

Duct Seal LG is a new, re-enterable duct sealing system, designed specifically to seal cables and pipes in ducted networks. Ideal for protecting against the ingress of harmful or flammable gases, liquids, smoke, and vermin, this versatile solution is well-suited for water and gas industry applications.

The Duct Seal LG kit includes our unique, daisy-chained circular foam tubes that wrap and separate cables, minimising movement and enabling secure application. It incorporates our innovative, flexible, intumescent, zero-halogen, and zero-MEKO adhesive and sealing compound, known as GreyStuff. All components are designed and manufactured in the UK to ensure high quality and reliable performance.

Key Features of Duct Seal LG Cable Duct Sealing System

  • Advanced Circular Foam System: Revolutionary backing for added cable stability

  • Intumescent Sealant: MEKO-free, FyBrid, non-hazardous formulation for a secure and safe seal

  • Water & Gas Tight: Built for high resistance, with up to 1.0 bar pressure resistance

  • Protection Against Toxic Gases: Effective against methane, chlorine, and hydrogen sulphide – ideal for the water industry

  • Hydrocarbon Resistance: Suitable for petrol forecourts and other environments with exposure to hydrocarbons

  • Certified Compliance: Meets DSEAR, WIMES, DCG, APEA, BLUEBOOK, and ATEX standards

  • Microbial Defence: Enhanced resistance to bacteria and fungi

  • Non-Adiabatic: Minimal Cable De-Rating: At a thickness of 20mm, thermal resistance is just 5.1 K/W, preserving the cable’s full current-carrying capacity

  • British Made: Proudly designed and manufactured in the UK, ensuring excellent adhesion and quality. The duct sealing system offers quick and easy installation, suitable for various cable scenarios, including PE sheathed cables and cable ducts.

Installation

One Kit per Box
All components are included to seal 1 x duct as per the kit size mentioned (A caulking gun is not included but can be sold separately). ** One kit may fill more than one duct, depending on the cable % filled. Call 0161 806 1666 for advice**

Cable Separation
It's imperative to ensure separation between each cable and from the inside of the duct. Our unique daisy-chained circular tubes easily separate and support single or multiple wires.

Running Water
The duct & cables should be dry for best results with no running water. All dirt, oil or grease must be cleaned before applying GreyStuff or Red Stuff. If you have running water, please get in touch with AC Cable Solutions for advice on 0161 806 1666. Most of the time, we recommend using a Kraso Mechanical seal - Click here for further information.

Cure Time
Grey Stuff & Red Stuff will cure 3-4mm daily, depending on the Humidity and temperature. The higher the humidity % and temperature, the quicker GreyStuff will cure. A minimum requirement of 20mm Grey Stuff & red Stuff is required for an effective seal.

Cleaning
Uncured material spillages can be cleaned with a solvent-based wipe.

Health & Safety
Grey Stuff is based on a neutral curing system that is hazard-free to protect users when carrying out tasks like sealing cable ducts. Non-hazardous Zero MEKO.

Compliance
Duct Seal LG complies with WIMES, APEA, ATEX & DSEAR, SEWAGE FOR ADOPTION, and the DCG guidance.

Re-entry & Removal
Grey Stuff & Red Stuff will cure a similar hardness to a rubber eraser, so re-entry and removal are achievable. The ease of this depends on the type of tools used. For example, a sharper tool will be easier than a blunt-ended tool. Only use sharp tools when cables are de-energised. AC Cable Solutions accepts no responsibility for damaged cables.

Cable Suitability
GreyStuff & Red Stuff is a single-component neutral curing system containing no solvents. Our formulation does not damage the properties of a cable sheath or stain surfaces.

Storage
Grey Stuff and Red Stuff should be kept in a cool, dry environment and away from sunlight. The product shelf life is 12 months. Once opened, any remaining product can be used for one month, provided the screwcap is securely fitted.
