Kraloy 029578 BS6045 ABS Vertical-Lok Base Spacer, 5" x 3", SuperDuct
The Kraloy BS6045 ABS Vertical-Lok Base Spacer is a 5" x 3" base spacer engineered for Kraloy's SuperDuct underground duct bank system. Molded from durable ABS material, this spacer positions and secures conduit runs at the correct spacing before concrete encasement, helping installers maintain consistent duct alignment throughout the duct bank. The Vertical-Lok interlocking design creates a stable, uniform duct bank configuration for underground electrical and communications conduit installations, supporting accurate, code-compliant spacing from the base of the trench up through each successive conduit tier.
Key Features
- Trade Size: 5" x 3" base spacer sized to accommodate SuperDuct conduit runs within the duct bank assembly.
- Durable ABS Construction: Molded ABS material resists corrosion, moisture, and impact while remaining lightweight for efficient handling and installation on the jobsite.
- Vertical-Lok Design: Interlocking base spacer configuration secures conduits in proper vertical and horizontal alignment prior to concrete encasement, reducing shifting during pours.
- Base Spacer Function: Positions and separates conduits within a SuperDuct duct bank to maintain consistent, code-compliant spacing between conduit runs.
- Model BS6045: Kraloy's BS6045 designation identifies this base spacer for accurate ordering and compatibility within the SuperDuct spacer system.
- SuperDuct System Compatibility: Designed to integrate with Kraloy's SuperDuct line of duct bank spacers for complete underground raceway assemblies.

Kraloy 029578 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does a Kraloy BS6045 base spacer actually do in an underground duct bank?
It is the bottom-tier spacer that sits in the trench and holds conduit runs at the correct spacing before the concrete pour. The BS6045 positions and separates the conduits so the duct bank keeps consistent spacing from the base up, and the Vertical-Lok interlocking form keeps the conduits from shifting while concrete is placed. It is a spacing component, not a hanger or strap for exposed work.
2) What size is the Kraloy 029578 Vertical-Lok base spacer?
The 029578 is the 5 inch by 3 inch size of the BS6045 base spacer, and that is the only size offered under this part number. The 5 x 3 dimensions set the conduit spacing you get at the base tier, so pick the spacer size that matches the spacing your duct bank drawing calls for rather than mixing sizes in one bank.
3) Will this base spacer work with other Kraloy SuperDuct spacers stacked above it?
Yes. The BS6045 is part of Kraloy's SuperDuct spacer system and the Vertical-Lok design interlocks so successive conduit tiers stack onto the base spacer in alignment. Use the base spacer at the trench bottom and SuperDuct intermediate spacers above it to build the full bank.
4) Is an ABS conduit spacer durable enough to be buried and encased in concrete?
The BS6045 is molded ABS, which resists corrosion, moisture and impact while staying light enough to set by hand in a trench. Once the pour cures the concrete carries the load; the spacer's job is holding position during placement. ABS is the material called out for this part, so there is no metal in the bank to corrode.
5) Can I use the BS6045 for aboveground or exposed conduit support?
No. This is a duct bank base spacer for concrete-encased underground runs, not a strap or hanger for exposed conduit on a wall or ceiling. For aboveground support you want conduit straps or hangers rated for that use. The BS6045's function is spacing conduits in a trench prior to encasement.
6) What part number do I give my supplier for the Kraloy 5 x 3 Vertical-Lok base spacer?
Order it as Kraloy BS6045, manufacturer part number 029578, in the 5 x 3 inch size. The BS6045 designation identifies the base spacer within the SuperDuct spacer system, which matters because Kraloy offers several spacer models and sizes across that line.
7) What kind of jobs is this spacer used on?
Underground electrical duct banks, utility and telecom conduit systems, concrete-encased runs on new construction, substation and distribution feeds, and multi-conduit SuperDuct assemblies. If the project drawing shows a concrete-encased bank with specified conduit separation, this is the base-tier component that holds that spacing.
