There’s a new cable in town. It’s called MC Glide Tuff™, but you’ll call it a miracle. No more backbreaking pulls. No more damaged studs. Just a smoother, faster experience.
We completely rethought the profile of MC Glide™. It’s designed to glide through metal studs and ceilings with ease, without sacrificing flexibility or strength, so you can finish the job in half the time.
MC Glide Tuff™ Features:
ColorSpec® ID. Lightweight blue steel armor with phase and circuit ID.
Easier pulls. U.S. Patented* armor profile is designed to reduce fatigue on your workers when pulling cable through metal studs and ceilings.
*U.S. Patents 11,101,056, 11,282,619, 11,587,699 and U.S. Design Patent D935,731
No need for new tools. Works with the same tools, fittings and supports as traditional MC Cables.
Time savings. From the first pull, installing MC Glide Tuff™ will be smoother, faster and easier to work with.
Minimize damage to studs. Less resistance means less opportunity for cable hang ups, that may knock down studs.
Applications
