Saudi Ducts > Large Diameter PVC Utility Duct – 200 mm (8″) – EB-35

Large Diameter PVC Utility Duct – 200 mm (8″) EB‑35

 Heavy-Duty Concrete Encased Duct for Power, Telecom & Fiber Networks in KSA & Gulf Region

The Gulf region is a place where infrastructure projects typically endure heavy traffic, very high temperatures, and tough soil conditions. The Large Diameter PVC Utility Duct – 200 mm EB‑35 is made exactly for these challenges, offering a strong and durable concealed in-concrete solution for the installation of large amounts of underground cables.

The EB‑35 designation not only gives it the ability to resist heavy-duty strength but also enables the duct to endure the stresses of vehicle and construction operations as well as underground hydraulic pressures. With its 200 mm width, the duct can hold a number of power, telecom, and fiber optic cables at a time, thus being a good fit for the utility networks with high power demand.

The Large Diameter PVC Utility Duct – 200 mm EB‑35 is a heavy-duty, concrete-encased rigid PVC conduit engineered for high-capacity underground installations. It is classified as EB‑35, ensuring enhanced mechanical strength for areas with high surface loads or vehicular traffic.

The 200 mm diameter accommodates multiple cables, supporting power, telecom, and fiber optic networks, while its durable PVC construction provides corrosion resistance, electrical safety, and long-term durability. The EB‑35 classification makes it ideal for residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal projects in Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Oman, Bahrain, and Kuwait, particularly where concrete encasement is required for extra protection.
