Ultra-Low Friction Lining by Dura-Line®
For more than 50 years, Dura-Line has been the worldwide leader in industry firsts. We were the first to bring conduit to the telecom industry; the first to manufacture ducts with pre-installed pull lines; and the first to offer longitudinally ribbed ducts, to name a few.
Now we’re proud to announce our latest breakthrough – SILICORE ULF – ultra-low friction lining.
The super-slick, non-greasy lining boasts a 62.5% lower coefficient of friction1 than standard HDPE conduit.
This means you can jet fiber-optic cable up to 25% farther2 in conduit lined with SILICORE ULF; saving you a lot of time, hassle, and money.
Because no one has time for friction.

162.5%. Testing performed on 1 1/2" SDR 13.5 smoothwall conduits, utilizing an HDPE sheathed cable, with and without SILICORE ULF.
24.92 times farther. To see the full report on the test results, email marketing@duraline.com.
3All testing performed at Dura-Line's Eagle Way Test Track in Clinton, TN (USA) from Nov. 29 - Dec. 2, 2022, with MicroDucts and conduits installed in the ground over a 2700-ft (823 m) loop with multiple handholes. Note: Your results may vary, as many factors influence jetting distances (e.g., bends in pathway, gravity, weather, etc.).
