ReFlatter – The Smart Solution for Straightening Ducts During Installation

ReFlatter – The Smart Solution for Straightening Ducts During Installation

When installing fiber ducts and microduct bundles, handling the duct correctly from the very beginning is crucial. One of the most common challenges during installation is coiled or twisted ducts coming directly off the drum, making installation slower, less precise, and more physically demanding.

This is exactly where the ReFlatter comes in.

What Is a ReFlatter?

The ReFlatter is a professional duct straightening tool designed to flatten and guide ducts as they are pulled off the drum. By applying controlled pressure through a system of adjustable rollers, the ReFlatter ensures that the duct leaves the drum straight, stable, and ready for direct installation into the ground or duct route.

This makes the ReFlatter an ideal solution for professional fiber contractors and infrastructure installers.

Why Straight Ducts Matter in Fiber Installation

When ducts are not properly straightened:

• They tend to curl or twist, especially in colder temperatures

• Installation speed is reduced

• Accuracy in placement suffers

• Additional manual handling is required

• There is an increased risk of damage or stress on the duct

By using a ReFlatter, installers can:

• Maintain a clean and straight duct path

• Reduce manual labor

• Improve installation efficiency

• Achieve a more professional end result

Designed for Professional Fiber Projects

The ReFlatter is built for FTTH, FTTx, and fiber infrastructure projects, where reliability and efficiency are essential. It is suitable for:

• Microduct bundles

• Multi-duct systems

• Various duct sizes and configurations

Thanks to its adjustable rollers and leveling scale, the ReFlatter can be fine-tuned depending on:

• Duct bundle size

• Number of sub-ducts

• Ambient temperature

• Duct stiffness and material

As a rule of thumb, the rollers are initially set as high as possible and gradually adjusted downward until the duct runs straight and stable.
