Duct Donut Spacer

Duct Donut Spacer

With the Duct Donut Spacer you can save time and effort. Your duct bank can be easily pre-assembled outside of the trench. You can also attain either 1½" or 3" separation with the same spacer.

Duct Donut Spacers

  • One style does it all
  • Save up to 40% on labor
  • Up to one third less spacers required on many jobs -- don't over-order
  • Do more work outside the ditch instead of down inside
  • Just slide them on and you have proper duct spacing in every direction -- and from sides and bottom of trench
  • Cannot fall or tip over
  • Place them anywhere along the run -- they don't have to be stacked -- this eliminates danger of shear plane in meeting seismic spcifications
  • Easy flow of concrete thru spacers in the pour
  • Fits all types of conduit. Sizes for conduits 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 inches
  • Snap out feature allows conversion from 3" separation to 1 1/2" separation.
