Conduit and Cable Protection You Can Depend On
Our PUB (Protection Under Bridge) systems are designed and installed to protect your utility investment long-term. To put your mind at ease, we offer First Line fire blankets. They not only protect against fire damage (up to 3,000°F), but they also protect against vulnerabilities such as vandalism and theft.

Protection from Vandalism & Fire Damage
The devastation in the photo in the above left shows a heavily trafficked area of San Diego. This grouping of utilities is actually a run of electrical conduit which feeds downtown. The destruction you see is due to a fire from a transient camp. A fire was set and it burned up a large portion of the conduit run. By installing First Line Fire Blanket as well as the vandalism protection cage, we were able to keep this from happening again.

Constructed from a densely wover E glass fiber, the base fabric offers high insulation and resistance to thermal conductivity. The silver titanium-colored silicone rubber coating is completely flameproof and waterproof. Formulated by Insulflex®, the coating transforms into a titanium silicate refractory crust upon exposure to severe flame - creating an inpenetrable, flame-proof barrier.
