Comments about YJ5-125 YELLOW JACKET 5 CHANNEL CABLE PROTECTOR:
We attempted to put the protector down on a sub 32 degree day. The units are COVERED in a silicon release agent. There are no through holes for putting a spike through, thus, all they do is slide like a kid just freed from the rigors of school by a snowday.
Sheesh, come on engineering, just one little hole to secure them with a spike, please.

Before working with this type of cord cover, I never imagined there was a need for something like this.

They link together easily and easy to populate with cables and wires with an open flap top.

Comments about YJ5-125 YELLOW JACKET 5 CHANNEL CABLE PROTECTOR:
The yellow jacket worked fantastically in the parking lot of my business. We had to run a water hose and 2 power cords in a space where there would be vehicle traffic. They look great, protected the cables, and saved us thousands in repaving.
