Product Information
Full details
The Actiasgear heavy-duty floor cable protector is for individuals and businesses needing to manage and conceal cables in high-traffic areas. Its key benefit is significantly reducing trip hazards and organizing multiple wires with its robust rubber construction and anti-slip surface. A potential caveat is its 1-meter length, which may require multiple units for extensive cable runs.

FAQs
What material is the cable protector made from?
The Actiasgear floor cable protector is manufactured from durable rubber.
How many cables can fit inside?
The protector has a generous width of 16cm and a height of 5cm, allowing it to accommodate multiple cables, including thicker power cords and data wiring. The exact number depends on the diameter of the individual cables.
Does it require permanent installation?
No, the cable protector is designed to be placed directly on flat surfaces without needing permanent fixing, making it suitable for temporary setups.
Is the surface slippery?
No, the protector features an anti-slip surface to improve grip underfoot and enhance safety.
What are the dimensions of the protector?
Each unit is 1 meter in length, 16cm in width, and 5cm in height.
Can this be used outdoors?
This product is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements may degrade the material and reduce its effectiveness.
How do I clean the cable protector?
Clean the protector with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh or abrasive cleaning chemicals.
Troubleshooting
Cable protector slides on the floor.
Ensure the floor surface is clean and dry. The anti-slip surface is most effective on smooth, non-greasy floors. For very smooth surfaces, consider using double-sided tape on the underside for extra security if permanent fixing is not an option.
Difficulty fitting multiple thick cables.
Gently adjust the cables within the channel to optimize space. If cables are too numerous or bulky for a single protector, consider using multiple units placed side-by-side or a different cable management solution.
Protector seems rigid or difficult to open/close.
Allow the rubber to acclimate to room temperature for a few hours if it has been stored in a cold environment. Gently flex the protector to soften it before attempting to insert cables.
