Frequently Asked Questions - DIRLC9606RB1 Panduit

What is the purpose of the Panduit DIRLC9606RB1 raceway?

The Panduit DIRLC9606RB1 is a surface raceway designed to manage and conceal low-voltage cables such as data, voice, and AV cables in indoor environments.

How do I cut the raceway to the desired length?

You can cut the raceway using a standard utility knife or a fine-toothed saw. For clean cuts, use a miter box to ensure 90° or 45° angles. Score the material deeply and snap it.

Can the raceway be painted to match wall color?

Yes, the PVC surface is paintable with latex or acrylic paint. Lightly sand the surface first and apply a primer for best adhesion.

What is the maximum cable capacity?

The raceway can accommodate up to six Cat6 cables or an equivalent volume of other low-voltage cables. Actual capacity depends on cable diameter.

Is the raceway compatible with Panduit fittings?

What tools are needed for installation?

Basic tools include a measuring tape, level, utility knife, screwdriver (for screw mounting), and a drill if attaching to drywall or wood.

Can the raceway be used outdoors?

The DIRLC9606RB1 is rated for indoor use only. For outdoor applications, use Panduit outdoor-rated raceway products.

How do I clean the raceway?

Wipe the raceway with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that may damage the PVC.

Does the raceway come with adhesive tape?

Yes, the package includes double-sided adhesive tape for installation on smooth surfaces like drywall or tile. Screws are also included for more permanent mounting.
