How to Customize and Connect QUICK TRAY PRO™ Cable Tray Sections

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for cutting, bending, and connecting QUICK TRAY PRO™ Cable Tray sections to create custom cable management configurations, including 90-degree bends, elbows, and various tees.

Estimated time: 2h

Tools needed:

Hoffman Side Action Bolt Cutter (QTPBC)

Supplies needed:

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

  1. Prepare for Cable Tray Modification

    Always use the Hoffman side action bolt cutter (QTPBC) to cut the QUICK TRAY PRO™ Cable Tray. This specialized cutter ensures precision cuts, minimizes sharp edges, and helps protect the new cut from corrosion. Before cutting, decide which wires must be removed based on the desired modification (e.g., bend, tee, or width reduction).

  2. Cut Cable Tray Side Wires

    Begin by cutting the top side wire. Position the cutting jaws on the cradle wire and make the cut at an angle away from the new end. Repeat this process for all remaining side wires, ensuring each cut is clean and angled away from the new end to prevent snagging and corrosion.

  3. Cut Cable Tray Bottom Wires

    Turn the cable tray over. From the underside, cut the bottom wires. Always rest the cutting jaws on the cradle wire and make the cut at an angle away from the new end. Ensure one clean cut to avoid grinding or touch-up.

  4. Form a 90-Degree Bend

    At the desired bend location, cut all side wires and then the bottom wires according to the specific cutting pattern for your tray size. Turn the tray onto its uncut side and smoothly bend it upwards until the inside edges closest to the uncut side meet. Secure the bend using QTPBNWK Splice Kits and QTPSSW3 Splice Washers, fastening them at the indicated locations for your tray width.

  5. Create an Elbow Connection

    For each of the two tray sections forming the elbow, cut the side wires following the specific cutting pattern for your tray width. Align the wires of the two trays at the desired angle. Fasten the joint using two QTPBNWK Splice Kits and QTPSSW3 Splice Washers for each connection point. For an adjustable angle, use one splice kit and one splice washer, centered, ensuring each splice washer covers two tray bottom wires.
