How to Install and Modify QUICK TRAY PRO Cable Tray Sections

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for cutting, forming, and connecting QUICK TRAY PRO Cable Tray sections, such as the QTP4X20BLK, to create custom cable management configurations.

Estimated time: 1h

Tools needed:

Hoffman side action bolt cutter (QTPBC)

Supplies needed:

QUICK TRAY PRO Cable Tray (e.g., QTP4X20BLK), Splice Kit (QTPBNWK or QTPBNWKBLK), Splice Washer (QTPSSW3 or QTPSSW3BLK), Universal Splice Bar (QTPUS10 or QTPUS10BLK), T-Connection or 90o Splice Bar (QTP90TKIT or QTP90TKITBLK)

  1. Plan Your Tray Modification

    Review the desired cable tray configuration, such as a straight cut, bend, elbow, tee, width reduction, or level change. Identify the specific wires that need to be cut or removed by consulting the relevant cutting patterns and diagrams in the QUICK TRAY PRO manual for your tray size.

  2. Cut the Cable Tray Wires

    Always use the Hoffman side action bolt cutter to make precise cuts. Begin by cutting the top side wire, then proceed to cut the remaining side wires, and finally the bottom wires. For each cut, position the cutting jaws on the cradle wire and make the cut at an angle away from the new end. This technique minimizes sharp edges that could snag cables and helps protect the cut from corrosion.

  3. Form and Secure Tray Sections

    After cutting, carefully bend the cable tray to achieve the desired shape, such as a 90-degree bend, a large radius bend, or a change in level. For connecting multiple tray sections or forming junctions, align the wires of the tray sections as required. Securely fasten the sections together using QTPBNWK or QTPBNWKBLK Splice Kits and QTPSSW3 or QTPSSW3BLK Splice Washers. For specialized junctions like Y-junction tees or width reductions, incorporate Universal Splice Bars (QTPUS10/QTPUS10BLK) or T-Connection Splice Bars (QTP90TKIT/QTP90TKITBLK) as specified in the manual.
