Overview

The nVent ProLine G2 Grid Strap (SKU: P2G3RT5) is a robust and versatile component designed for creating sophisticated mounting and support networks within industrial enclosures. Manufactured by nVent, a trusted leader in electrical solutions, this 500mm steel grid strap is engineered for durability and ease of integration into various ProLine G2 frame systems. Its primary function is to provide a stable framework for mounting a wide array of electrical and electronic equipment, ensuring secure and organized installations. This specific model features a 3-row configuration and tab-mount design, facilitating straightforward attachment to enclosure verticals or other grid strap components. The ProLine G2 Grid Straps are supplied in pairs and are available in distinct designs to meet diverse application needs. These include full-height vertical straps for spanning the entire enclosure height, horizontal straps with integrated mounting brackets for flexible positioning, and single-piece horizontal straps with integrated tabs, like the P2G3RT5, offering a streamlined mounting solution. The versatility of horizontal grid straps, such as the P2G3RT5, is a key advantage. They can be mounted in multiple orientations: front-to-back between frame verticals (depth-mounted), side-to-side between frame verticals or depth-mounted grid straps (width-mounted), or even vertically between other grid straps. This adaptability allows for highly customized internal layouts, optimizing space utilization and accessibility within the enclosure. Vertical grid straps, on the other hand, are ideal for applications requiring full-height support, such as mounting tall equipment or creating vertical cable management pathways. Constructed from high-quality steel, the ProLine G2 Grid Strap offers exceptional strength and resistance to environmental factors common in industrial settings. This ensures the longevity and reliability of the mounted equipment, even under demanding conditions. The tab-mount design of the P2G3RT5 simplifies the installation process, reducing labor time and potential for errors. Professionals can confidently deploy these grid straps for applications in sectors such as: * **Industrial Automation:** Mounting PLCs, HMIs, variable frequency drives, and other control system components. * **Telecommunications:** Securing network switches, routers, and other critical infrastructure. * **Data Centers:** Organizing and supporting server racks and associated networking equipment. * **Power Distribution:** Providing support for busbars, circuit breakers, and other electrical distribution hardware. By utilizing nVent ProLine G2 Grid Straps, engineers and technicians can achieve a more organized, efficient, and secure internal enclosure environment. The P2G3RT5, with its 500mm length and 3-row tab-mount design, is a prime example of nVent's commitment to providing practical and high-performance solutions for complex electrical installation challenges. Its robust construction and adaptable mounting options make it an indispensable component for any professional seeking to optimize enclosure design and functionality. The UNSPSC code 39121334 further categorizes this product within the broader scope of electrical enclosure accessories, highlighting its specific utility in system integration and support.
  • Quick installation of grid strap(s) using the patented front-load BV-M6 fastener (Blind, Variable M6 screw based fastener), which is an innovative alternative to cage nuts or self-tapping screws
  • Mounting hole pattern is 25-mm on center, alternating round and rectangular holes to accommodate various hardware: rectangular holes accept BV-M6 fasteners or front-loading cage nuts
  • Horizontal grid straps are offered in both 1-row and 3-row configurations, as well as bracket or tabbed (single-piece) mounting options
  • Width-mounting Grid Straps requires an increase in length of 100mm over the nominal frame width (i.e. 600mm wide enclosure requires 700mm grid strap)
  • Horizontal, Bracket-Mount Grid Straps: Mounting brackets are installed using a single BV-M6 (or front-loading cage nut) per bracket. Grid Strap hooks onto the mounted brackets, and snaps into place for easy installation; this design Grid Strap can be moun
  • Horizontal, Tab-Mount, Single-Piece Grid Straps: Grid Strap is constructed from a single piece, with a jogged tab that allows the Grid Strap to sit flush with the frame; this design Grid Strap should not be used when mounting vertically between other Grid
  • Furnished in pairs, and constructed from 14 gauge (1.75mm) conductive steel
