Product Introduction & Structural Composition

The galvanized mesh cable tray mainly consists of a mesh-shaped main structure made of high-quality steel and connection components. The mesh-shaped structure is generally formed by connecting steel wires or steel strips through processes such as welding or weaving to create a regular mesh pattern. This structure not only ensures the strength of the cable tray but also has good air permeability and visibility, facilitating cable laying as well as subsequent maintenance and inspection. The connection component parts include different types of bolts, nuts, connection plates, etc., which are used to connect and fix the other parts of the cable tray together, ensuring the stability of the entire system.

Galvanizing Processes

Hot-dip Galvanizing

The steel that has undergone pretreatment such as degreasing and derusting is immersed in molten zinc liquid. A chemical reaction occurs between the steel surface and zinc, forming a uniform and dense zinc-iron alloy layer and a pure zinc layer. The hot-dip galvanized layer is generally thick, providing long-term and effective protection. It enables the cable tray to be used in harsh environments for many years without rusting, making it suitable for outdoor environments or industrial projects with strong corrosion.

Electro-galvanizing

Based on the principle of electrolysis, a layer of zinc is deposited on the steel surface. The electro-galvanized layer is relatively thin, but its surface is smoother and more even. It has good appearance quality and relatively low cost. It is suitable for indoor environments or places where the requirement for corrosion resistance is not particularly high.

Product Characteristics

Good Rust Resistance

The galvanized layer acts as an effective protective barrier, isolating the steel from corrosive substances such as air, moisture, acids, and alkalis in the outside world. Zinc has a certain degree of corrosion resistance, while contacting with air, a dense zinc oxide film forms on its surface, further enhancing the protective performance and thus greatly slowing down the rusting rate of the cable tray.

Cost Advantage

Compared with stainless-steel cable trays, under the condition of meeting general protection requirements, the cost of galvanized mesh cable trays is much lower. The production process of stainless steel is complex, and the raw material cost is high. However, the galvanized mesh cable tray can achieve good protection effects by galvanizing the surface of ordinary steel, which has a high cost-performance ratio and can save costs for projects.

Good Load-bearing Capacity

The galvanized mesh cable tray has a reasonable structural design. The strength and toughness of the steel ensure its stability when bearing cables. Depending on different specifications and models, it can meet the laying requirements of a small number of light-duty cables to a large number of heavy-duty cables and can adapt to various cable-bearing requirements in conventional projects.

Product Features

Quick Installation

Its simple mesh structure and standardized connection methods make the installation process very simple. Assembling and connecting the cable tray system doesn't require complex tools and techniques from the workers, which saves huge amount of time and improving great efficiency. This advantage is particularly obvious in large-scale cable-laying projects.

Neat Appearance

The surface of the galvanized cable tray is smooth and has a uniform color, presenting a gentle visual image. Whether in commercial buildings, office buildings with high requirements for cleanliness, or other places with certain requirements for environmental aesthetics, it can be coordinated with the surrounding environment and enhance the overall aesthetic.

Strong Versatility

The galvanized mesh cable tray can be used normally in various environments, whether it is a dry indoor environment, a humid basement, an outdoor open-air environment, or even some industrial places with mild corrosion. It can adapt to different environmental conditions, such as temperature and humidity, and is compatible with various types of cables. It is a widely-applied choice for cable trays.

Application Fields

Construction Field

In buildings such as office buildings, shopping malls, hotels, and residential houses, it is used to lay lighting cables, communication cables, fire-fighting cables, etc., providing cable support and protection for various electrical equipment and systems in the building.

Industrial Field

In industrial places such as factories and workshops, it can be used to lay power cables, control cables, etc., meeting the power supply and equipment control requirements in industrial production. Even in some chemical workshops, electroplating workshops, and other environments with certain corrosion, it can work reliably.

Transportation Field

In transportation hubs such as subway stations, railway stations, and airports, it is used to lay communication cables, signal cables, lighting cables, etc., ensuring the normal operation of transportation facilities and information transmission.

Data Center

It provides a cable-laying passage for a large number of servers, network equipment, etc. in the data center. Its good heat-dissipation performance and ease of maintenance help ensure the data center's efficient operation.

Specifications and Models

There are various specifications and models of galvanized mesh cable trays available for selection. Common specifications include widths ranging from 50mm to 600mm and heights ranging from 50mm to 150mm. The mesh sizes also come in various dimensions, such as 25mm×25mm, 50mm×50mm, etc. Users can choose the appropriate specifications and models according to the actual number of cables, cable diameters, and laying requirements.

Precautions & Guidelines

• Although the galvanized mesh cable tray has good rust resistance, during the installation and use process, mechanical damage to the galvanized layer should still be avoided to prevent damage to the protective layer and reduction of rust resistance.

• In some places with high fire-prevention requirements, the galvanized mesh cable tray needs to be treated for fire-prevention, such as applying fire-proof paint.

• During installation, ensure that the cable tray is firmly installed. According to the weight and number of the bearing cables, reasonably set support points and fixing points to avoid potential safety hazards such as deformation or fracture of the cable tray.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference between hot-dip galvanizing and electro-galvanizing for cable trays?

Hot-dip galvanizing forms a thicker zinc-iron alloy layer, offering high corrosion resistance suitable for outdoor or heavy industrial environments. Electro-galvanizing provides a thinner, smoother finish with lower costs, which is ideal for indoor commercial applications.

Can grid cable trays be used for data center cabling?

Yes, wire mesh trays provide excellent heat dissipation and allow easy drop-outs for network cables, making them the preferred choice for data centers and server rooms.

Do you provide customized dimensions and finishes?

Yes, both OEM and ODM requirements are supported. Widths (50–600mm), heights (50–300mm), finishes (HDG, CDG, Powder Coated), and wire thicknesses (4/5/6mm) can be tailored to meet project demands.

What is the typical production and delivery lead time?

The standard delivery time is approximately 25 days from the port of Shanghai or Tianjin, depending on order volume and project specifications.

Are free samples available prior to bulk orders?

Yes, free samples are provided to help evaluate the construction quality, wire gauge, and surface finish before ordering in bulk.
