Cable Guard is a UV-resistant flexible PVC extrusion with an inner aluminum core designed to quickly snap onto any cable that is 5-6mm thick by 8-13mm wide. It provides protection against many common forms of damage including cuts, punctures and abrasions. It is simple to install and remove and requires no tools. Cable Guard can be cut with a standard tin snips if needed. Common applications include using Cable Guard to protect cable as it makes its transition into the gutter downspout, where cable is exposed on the bottom of the downspout system, where cable comes into contact with any sharp edge and where cable passes through sheet metal, such as through Leaf Guard, Gutter Helmet and other metal gutter screens.
