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 is coiled or twisted ducts coming directly off the drum, making installation slower, less precise, and more physically demanding.

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 the duct leaves the drum straight, stable, and ready for direct installation into the ground or duct route.

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
• Higher 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
