3/4" Smurf tube


Smurf tube is great stuff!


True dat. Most electricians and even some inspectors do not understand
all the things it is listed for. One thing that is good to know is the
RNC (gray PVC) connections are also listed for smurf so you can use
any PVC fittings, boxes or conduit bodies directly glued to smurf. It
can also be embedded in concrete.
One tip, when you are pushing wire through smurf, fold over the lead
wire, making a rounded tip, so it does not hang on the ridges and then
tape the rest up into a bullet. Carlon says you can actually push wire
through 720 degrees of total bend although the code still says 360
max. They have been trying to change that.
