Overview

The nVent QT2X18 is a 2" x 18" x 120" straight section wire basket from the Bulletin QT (Quick Tray) Series, engineered for efficient cable management in industrial, commercial, and infrastructure applications. Constructed from high-strength steel wire with a durable zinc finish, this cable tray delivers superior corrosion resistance and long-term durability in demanding environments. The open wire mesh design promotes natural airflow, reducing heat buildup around cables and preventing thermal degradation of power, data, and communication wiring. The T-weld top wire provides a smooth, reinforced edge that minimizes cable abrasion during installation and system operation. With a load capacity of 43 lbs. per foot over a 6-foot span, the QT2X18 supports moderate cable densities while maintaining structural integrity. It accommodates approximately 108 Cat6 cables (0.19" diameter) or 99 Cat6A cables (0.23" diameter), making it suitable for networking, power distribution, and control systems. The 120-inch length reduces splice requirements, streamlining installation and lowering labor costs. The product is UL Classified for suitability as an equipment ground conductor and complies with NFPA 70 (NEC) Article 392, IEC 61537, and NEMA VE 1 standards, ensuring safety and regulatory compliance in cable tray installations. Ideal for manufacturing plants, data centers, commercial buildings, and infrastructure projects, the QT2X18 integrates seamlessly into existing or new cable tray systems. Its modular design allows for flexible routing and easy expansion, while the pre-galvanized steel construction ensures consistent performance in indoor and protected outdoor applications. The product is manufactured in the USA and distributed by Gross Automation.
