A simpler way to join cable trays
10 March 2004
Interconnection
The Multivia wiremesh cable tray system range, available from Grafoplast, has been enhanced by a unique development that allows for easy joining of the tray sections.
Manufactured in Spain by Interflex, Fast Union is said to be extremely simple to install: a Fast Union is fixed onto opposite sides of each of the trays to be joined. The trays are aligned, and then both the Fast Unions are simultaneously snapped together to hold the trays in place. This quick assembly eliminates the need for bolts, nuts, clamps and washers, and significantly improves the time taken to assemble trays, and without the use of any specialised tools.
Fast Union can be used over the full range of Multivia cable trays, which are supplied zinc plated, hot dipped galvanised or in stainless steel. Tray depths of 30, 60 and 105 mm in lengths of 300 mm are available. To accommodate different levels and sizes, Multivia cable trays have a range of assembly options.
