Key Features
- Corrosion-Free FRP: Completely non-metallic, preventing rust even in saltwater or chemical-laden environments.
- High Load Capacity: Lightweight structure yet designed to support heavy cable bundles; long spans between supports possible.
- Open-Tray Design: Supports air circulation and water drainage around cables, reducing heat buildup.
- Rigid Covers: Optional FRP covers lock onto tray for protection against debris, moisture, and unauthorized access.
- Fire-Resistant Construction: Long fire stops or intumescent coatings can be applied for required flame ratings.
Benefits
- Simplified Maintenance: Cable pulling & rerouting is easy — pull cables into position on open tray instead of through conduit.
- Electrical Safety: Insulating material eliminates risk of short circuits or earth faults through the support structure.
- Longevity: Withstands harsh chemicals and extreme weather with virtually no degradation; ideal for tunnels and outdoor substations.
- UV and Thermal Stability: UV-stabilized resins keep trays stable under sun exposure; handles temperature variation without brittleness.
Applications
- Indoor and outdoor cable support at railway signal rooms and substation panels
- Cable raceways in tunnels and elevated guideways
- Cable routing along platform edges and station mechanical rooms
- Any rail electrification projects requiring secure, organized wiring
