REFLECTOR: conduit in a conduit?

I don't know a lot about chemistry...

The site shows the material to be Nylon.  Is it combustible?  Does it generate harmful gas when burned?

Here's an interesting product that would protect for some abrasion..  Fairly inexpensive too.

Doug,



Most of my wires run through 1/2" - 3/4" ID plastic

conduits that I inserted into the fiberglass ducts.

One starts in the engine compartment and the other

back by the gear bulkhead. They both end on forward

side of the canard bulkhead.



It's real easy to replace or, more typically, add

electrical wires this way. I leave an extra "pull

wire" in the conduit just for this purpose.



I did not run any coax, #2 starter wires, or the

alternator output wire in the plastic ducts.



I don't remember where I bought the conduit - It looks

just like nylaflow with similar properties.



In terms of chaffing, the grounded control cables are

potentially worse than than the fiberglass. I actually

ran my control cables outside the ducts to keep them

away from oil lines, brake lines, electrical lines,

etc.

Will my wires chafe if I just lay them in the

fiberglass conduit? Do I need to put some sleeving

around the wires to protect them?
