Wire Cable Tray Tools and Materials You’ll Need Before you begin installing wire mesh cable trays, gather the necessary tools and materials: • Wire mesh cable tray sections • Mounting brackets and supports • Cable ties or clamps • Screwdrivers, wrenches, or power tools • Level and measuring tape • Safety gear (gloves, goggles, etc.) Pro Tip: Have a clear layout of where your trays will run before starting to ensure a smooth and accurate installation. SS Wire Mesh Cable Tray Step-by-Step Installation Guide Step 1: Plan the Installation Route Start by determining the best route for the cable tray. Measure the length and any bends or corners the tray needs to cover. Careful planning will prevent unnecessary adjustments later. • Tip: Map out the cable tray route, considering obstacles like walls, beams, or equipment. Step 2: Install Mounting Brackets Once the route is planned, install mounting brackets or supports. These brackets will hold the wire mesh cable tray in place. Typically, brackets should be spaced 5-6 feet apart, or according to the manufacturer's recommendations. • For wall mounting, use sturdy anchors or bolts to secure the brackets. • For ceiling installations, use threaded rods with ceiling hangers for a solid fit. Pro Tip: Ensure the brackets are level to avoid misalignment during installation.

Carefully place the sections into the mounting brackets and secure them using screws or clamps. • Multiple Sections: If your installation requires multiple tray sections, use connectors or clamps to link them seamlessly. • Corners and Bends: For any bends or corners, pre-formed fittings make it easy to transition between tray sections. Step 4: Secure the Cables After fitting the cable tray, organize and lay the cables inside the tray. Make sure the cables are evenly distributed to avoid overloading any specific area. Once in place, use cable ties or clamps to secure the cables to the tray. • Pro Tip: Label your cables as you go to make future maintenance or expansion easier. Step 5: Final Inspection and Adjustments Once the trays are in place and cables secured, inspect the entire setup. Check for stability in the brackets, ensure all cables are properly fastened, and confirm that the tray is aligned and secure. • Pro Tip: Ensure there’s enough slack in the cables for any future adjustments or expansions without straining the system.
