Blue Diamond Industries (BDI) provides high-efficiency Cable in Conduit (CIC) solutions, where power, fiber, or coaxial cables are pre-installed during the extrusion process. By integrating the cable and the HDPE conduit at our manufacturing facility, we eliminate the need for field pulls, significantly reducing labor costs and project timelines.
Our advanced extrusion process utilizes specialized "cross-head" dies and protective tubing to ensure that the cable is never compromised during production.
- Pristine Quality Control: Installing cable in a controlled factory environment ensures a clean, damage-free product is delivered directly to your job site.
- Eliminate Field Labor: CIC removes the added expense and complexity of pulling cable in the field, especially in challenging environments or inclement weather.
- Precision Engineering: We utilize specialized equipment to feed cable seamlessly into the HDPE duct, maintaining the integrity of both the conduit and the conductors.
BDI is a trusted manufacturer meeting rigorous national standards for safety and performance:
- UL 1990 Listed: Certified for Nonmetallic Underground Conduit with Conductors.
- ASTM D 3485 Compliant: Smooth-Wall Coilable Polyethylene (PE) Conduit for Pre-assembled Wire and Cable.
- NEC Code Adherence: All CIC products are designed to meet National Electrical Code limitations regarding cable fill. (Refer to our Technical Library for detailed Cable Fill Charts).
We support a wide range of infrastructure needs, from municipal lighting to high-speed telecommunications.
