Hubbell Cable Protector 5 ft

The Hubbell FT3BK5 is a single-channel PVC cable protector measuring five feet in length. It covers cables up to one-half inch in diameter with a smooth black finish. The low-profile design sits three-quarters of an inch high and three inches wide. It is ADA compliant for accessible routes.

Indoor or outdoor cable runs needing a single

Suitable for temporary or permanent installations where one cable path must be protected and kept level with the floor. Not intended for applications that require a published load-bearing rating or multiple separate channels. Buyers who need a certified weight capacity or more than one channel should look at alternative designs.

ADA-compliant single-channel PVC protector

The smooth black PVC body meets ADA requirements for accessible surfaces while shielding one cable up to one-half inch in diameter. Its five-foot length and low three-quarter-inch height allow it to blend into walkways without creating a tripping hazard. The unit ships new and ready for immediate installation.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Hubbell FT3BK5 cable protector and what step is often missed?

Lay the 5 ft PVC protector flat, press cables into the single 1/2 in high by 3/4 in wide channel, then secure the smooth black surface so the 3 in width stays flush; the step often missed is confirming the max cable diameter does not exceed 1/2 in before closing the lid.

What maintenance or replacement will the FT3BK5 need over time?

Inspect the PVC body periodically for cracks or UV brittleness; replace the 5 ft section if the smooth texture wears rough or the 3/4 in height no longer sits level, since the load capacity is not rated and heavy traffic accelerates fatigue.

What limit appears first when the FT3BK5 is used continuously under heavy loads?

The non‑rated load capacity means the 3/4 in high PVC channel can deform before any other spec is reached, so sustained heavy rolling loads will flatten the 1/2 in cable space first.
