Why should you use cable trays in industrial projects?

In modern construction projects, cable trays and cable ladders are indispensable products widely used in factories and production plants. However, for the cable tray system to operate most effectively, the accompanying cable tray accessories are crucial. Among these, cable tray connectors are important conductive materials that support the installation of two cable trays of different sizes.

So, what are cable tray connectors? When should you use connectors for a cable tray system? What is the price list for these accessories? Bestray will answer all your questions about this type of accessory in this article.

1. What is cable tray splicing?

Cable tray joints (Joint Connectors) are part of the cable tray accessories category. These products are used to connect various components of cable trays, ensuring a precise, secure, and safe connection within the cable tray system. This accessory also helps minimize risks during installation and use.

We offer a full range of cable tray connectors, including straight cable trays, angled cable trays, and horizontal or vertical cable trays. These ensure secure connections and high durability of the cable trays.

2. When should cable tray connectors be used?

2.1. What is the purpose of connecting cable trays?

As one of the essential accessories in cable tray systems in construction projects, despite its small size, the cable tray connector has many uses:

• Cable tray splices are commonly used to ensure the continuity of structural components (beams or columns) along their length. These splice plates are bolted or welded to the main components.
• The connector also helps to join two cable trays of different sizes, reducing the deviation of the connection point to the left/right.
• It serves to connect two sections of cable tray, joining cable ladders or cable trays together. This creates a sturdy, stable, and safe cable tray system, minimizing risks during use.

2.2. Common types of cable tray connectors

The increasing demand for cable trays has led to a wide variety of cable tray accessories in different designs and sizes to meet customer needs. Currently, connecting accessories are classified into two types: detachable and integrated connectors.

• Detachable parts: there will be two connecting pieces on either side of the trough, making it easy to assemble and disassemble quickly.

• Connecting: This type of connector is shaped like a cable tray, placed inside the cable tray, and secured with screws on both sides. This connection method is widely used and suitable for cable trays with a width of 500mm or less, and where the gap between two straight cable tray bars needs to be covered.

Additionally, they are classified according to their connection method with the two cable tray sections as follows:

• Vertical adjustable splice plate: used to join cable trays together vertically.

• Horizontal adjustable splice plate: an accessory used to join cable trays together horizontally.

• Left-Hand Reducer (a noun, a reducing connector, oriented straight to the left): used to reduce the size of cable trays to the left.
• Right-hand reducer (a noun, a reducing connector, oriented straight to the right): its function is to help reduce the size of the cable tray to the right.
• Center reducer: This accessory is used to connect two cable trays of different sizes. It can also be used to connect two different sections of cable tray and other accessories.

3. Technical Specifications

With the many benefits that cable tray connectors bring to cable tray systems in current construction projects, these connectors are increasingly being considered by engineers to suit the environmental conditions of the construction site. To understand this issue clearly, it is necessary to consider the technical specifications of cable tray connectors as follows:

• Materials used: galvanized steel, ZAM steel grade K27, powder-coated black steel, stainless steel (rarely used). These materials are highly durable, heat-resistant, safe, and aesthetically pleasing. Therefore, the quality of your construction project is always guaranteed at the highest safety level.

• Used to connect two sections of trough together, and the number of connections is calculated based on the number of meters of trough [Formula: Number of trough connections = (number of meters of trough/3 * 2) + (number of elbows, tees, etc. * 2) + 10% spare parts].
• Standard product thicknesses: 0.8mm, 1.0mm, 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm, 2.5mm
• Standard colors: white, gray, orange, or the color of the material.
