How to Customize and Install QUICK TRAY PRO™ Cable Tray (e.g., QTP2X12BLK)

This guide provides comprehensive instructions for modifying and assembling QUICK TRAY PRO™ Cable Tray sections, such as the QTP2X12BLK, to create custom cable management pathways. Learn to cut, bend, and connect sections for various configurations.

Estimated time: 2h

Tools needed:

Hoffman Side Action Bolt Cutter (QTPBC), Wrench

Supplies needed:

QUICK TRAY PRO™ Cable Tray Sections (e.g., QTP2X12BLK), Splice Kits (e.g., QTPBNWK), Splice Washers (e.g., QTPSSW3), Universal Splice Bars (e.g., QTPUS10), T-Connection or 90-degree Splice Bars (e.g., QTP90TKIT)

  1. Plan Cable Tray Layout and Cutting Patterns

    Before making any cuts, thoroughly plan your cable tray layout. Review the specific cutting patterns provided in the manual for desired bends, tees, elbows, or width reductions. Accurately identify which wires must be removed based on your tray size and the intended modification.

  2. Cut Cable Tray Sections

    Always use the Hoffman side action bolt cutter (QTPBC) to make precise cuts. When cutting for bends or reductions, start with the top side wire, positioning the cutting jaws on the cradle wire and cutting at an angle away from the new end. Repeat this process for all remaining side wires, then turn the tray over and cut the bottom wires from the underside. Ensure each cut is clean to minimize sharp edges and protect against corrosion.

  3. Form Bends or Elbows

    To create a 90-degree bend, cut the side and bottom wires according to the specific pattern for your cable tray width. Once cut, turn the tray onto its uncut side and smoothly bend it upwards until the inside edges closest to the uncut side meet. Secure the formed bend using QTPBNWK/QTPBNWKBLK Splice Kits and QTPSSW3/QTPSSW3BLK Splice Washers at the indicated fastening locations.

  4. Connect Tray Sections

    Join straight or modified tray sections together using QTPBNWK/QTPBNWKBLK Splice Kits and QTPSSW3/QTPSSW3BLK Splice Washers. For configurations requiring extra support or specific angles like tees or elbows, utilize QTPUS10/QTPUS10BLK Universal Splice Bars or QTP90TKIT/QTP90TKITBLK T-Connection Splice Bars. Fasten all components securely to the tray sides using the provided hardware.

  5. Install Supports for the Cable Tray

    Install supports for straight sections at typical 6-foot (1.5m) centers. It is crucial to place supports within 24 inches (610mm) of any splice on straight sections. Additionally, ensure that extra supports are installed around all bends and wherever the cable tray changes levels to provide adequate stability and load bearing capacity.
