Polycrete\u00ae Concrete Polymer Pits<\/span><\/h3>\n

Durable and Lightweight Polycrete\u00ae Concrete Polymer Pits for Electrical and Communications Enclosures<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Convic Australia proudly supplies Polycrete\u00ae Concrete Polymer Pits, the premium solution for your electrical and communications enclosure needs. These pits, designed with advanced polymer concrete, offer excellent insulation, high mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and zero water absorption. These features make them ideal for critical infrastructure, ensuring the safety and longevity of your installations.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Superior Construction and Material<\/span><\/h4>\n

Polycrete\u00ae pits, made from chemical and corrosion-resistant lightweight polymer concrete, deliver unmatched durability. Polymer concrete, a composite material, replaces cement hydrate binders with polymer binders or liquid resins. This substitution enhances strength, adhesion, and chemical resistance. The 100% non-metallic construction provides an electrical resistivity rating of 1×10\u2078 \u03a9\/sq., identical to concrete without steel reinforcing. This feature is crucial for installations where electrical insulation is paramount, giving you peace of mind that your infrastructure is well-protected.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Efficient and Easy Installation<\/span><\/h4>\n

Polycrete\u00ae pits stand out for their ease of installation. Their lightweight construction reduces physical strain on workers and minimizes the need for heavy lifting equipment, except for the largest sizes. Designed with installers in mind, these pits feature easy-to-fit and seal dividing walls, simplifying the process and saving valuable time on-site. For cable entry penetration, wet cutting is recommended, allowing for clean and precise openings. This installation flexibility makes Polycrete\u00ae pits the preferred choice for many projects.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Versatile and Secure Access Covers<\/span><\/h4>\n

Polycrete\u00ae pits come with a variety of anti-slip lids and access covers, suitable for all load classes up to Class G as per AS 3996 standards. These lids prioritize safety and functionality. OH&S-friendly steel lids, weighing less than 25kg, are easy to handle and reduce the risk of injury during installation and maintenance. The weather-resistant covers protect installations from harsh environmental conditions, while IP ratings of up to IP4X (AS 60529) offer additional protection against ingress. These features make Polycrete\u00ae covers ideal for applications ranging from car parks to industrial sites.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Enhanced Aesthetics and Customization<\/span><\/h4>\n

Polycrete\u00ae pits combine functionality with aesthetic appeal. Recessed access covers can be infilled with pavement material to match the surrounding area, ensuring they blend seamlessly into any environment. This makes them an excellent choice for urban settings, streetscapes, and sports venues where visual consistency is essential. Additionally, steel lids and access covers, hot-dip galvanized to AS 4680 standards, resist corrosion and extend the lifespan of the pits.<\/p>\n
