TRUGRIDFRP Cable Support System

The TRUGRID Cable Support System is designed and manufactured to el iminate the

endless problems faced by plant engineers using conventional cable support system made

from galvanised steel, aluminium or thermoplastics.

The following are some of the special features of the system.

CHEMICAL AND CORROSION RESISTANCE

TRUGRID Cable Support System is made from a selection of premiumresin reinforced with glass fibers to form a strong composite which is

resistant to most chemicals and Ultra Violet. TRUGRID Cable SupportSystem resists acids, salts, alkalis and a wide range of aggressivechemicals and solvents. This property is not supercial, as in coated steel

but integrated throughout the components used. Corrosion often initiatesfrom scratches which are caused while cable are being installed inconventional support systems. However this is not a problem with the use

of the TRUGRID System. Cable trays and Ladders are also available inre retardant grade.

STRENGTH WEIGHT RATIO

TRUGRID Cable Support System is fabricated from componentsderived from a process called PULTRUSION. This process enables a high

percentage of glass to be incorporated into the components giving it verysuperior strength. The strength of TRUGRID System in relation to itsweight therefore exceeds the performance of those of steel or aluminium.

EASE OF INSTALLATION

The weight of the pultruded components used is approximately one quarterthe weight of steel or two thirds of aluminium.

Unlike stainless steel, pultruded components are easier to handle and can

be drilled or cut on site using handtools. Lower installation cost wouldcontribute to substantial savings.

Loading Capacity

The working (allowable) load capacity represents the ability of a berglass cable ladder to support the static weightof cables. It is equivalent to the destruction load capacity, as determined by testing in accordance with 4.1,NEMA Fg1, with a safety factor 1.5.
