This specification covers materials, dimensions, workmanship, and performance tests for medium-density and high-density smooth-wall coilable polyethylene conduit (duct) for preassembled electrical wires and cables. The polyethylene extrusion compounds shall be tested for conformance to the tensile strength, elongation, brittleness temperature, melt index, crack resistance to environmental and thermal stresses, compression and recovery, and mechanical impact requirements. The smooth-wall coilable duct shall meet the wall thickness, outside diameter, and bending radius specifications.
