Introduction
Channel tray
Thomas & Betts channel tray provides the
ideal support system for lighter duty
copper and fibre optic cable used
in data, signal, telecoms and
computer applications.
With many installations now reliant
on electronic communications,
T&B channel tray offers the easy to
install, highly flexible yet robust
solution for supporting smaller,
lightweight cable runs.
Extensive product range
Enhanced safety
T&B channel tray offers a complete
system including straight sections,
fittings, covers and accessories for
optimum versatility when planning
cable runs.
Channel tray proves much safer than
conduit installation, with lower risk
of exposure to live, energised parts.
Components are available in a range
of materials to cover the variety of
installation requirements across the
Middle East.
In a channel tray system, cables can
be pulled from near one termination
enclosure to the next before being
connected, rather than being pulled
through the conduit after the cable
is terminated.
Increased adaptability
Reduced costs
A major advantage of channel tray
is its adaptability. Modification of
the system is easy because cables can
enter or exit a tray at any point.
Reliability, adaptability and ease of
maintenance are some of the many
benefits of channel tray which
deliver savings during installation
and over the lifetime of the system.
Channel tray is often used to provide
support to smaller cable runs from a
larger cable ladder or perforated
cable tray system.
Channel tray can be easily affixed
to larger systems, and is revised or
expanded simply without disruption
or the need to replace the entire
cable management system.
Straightforward installation ensures
costs are reduced considerably
compared to the time needed to
pull cables through conduit.
High adaptability permits rapid
system adjustment, ensuring
downtime is kept to a minimum in
electrical and data handling systems.
Low maintenance
First class support
The simplicity of the channel tray
system ensures installation and
maintenance routines can be
conducted quickly and effortlessly.
Thomas & Betts combines global
market leadership with local product
& technical support, either through
our network of distributors, or via
our T&B sales office in Dubai and our
production facility at Dammam.
When maintenance is necessary, it
requires less labour and time than
alternative cabling solutions.

Channel tray
Thomas & Betts channel tray is
available in four material types
and two tray bottom types, for
maximum versatility.
Material types
Introduction
Aluminium (to 6063 T6)
Aluminium 6063 T6 alloy for lightweight construction, excellent corrosion
resistance, and high strength-to-weight ratio. Aluminium channel tray offers
simple installation and low maintenance.
Pre-galvanized steel (to BS EN 10142 & BS EN 10143)
●
Aluminium
Steel is ideal as a high strength, low cost material for channel tray.
●
Steel (pre-galvanized, hot dip
galvanized & stainless steel)
Pre-galvanized steel tray is produced by passing the low-carbon steel through
molten zinc before fabrication, and is generally recommended for indoor
commercial applications rather than outdoor or industrial environments.
Tray bottom types
●
Solid
●
Ventilated
Hot dip galvanized steel (to BS EN ISO 1461)
Hot dip galvanized steel tray is produced by immersing the fabricated tray in
molten zinc, creating a much thicker coating than pre-galvanized. This
process is recommended for most outdoor and harsh industrial applications.
Stainless steel (to AISI Type 316 or 304)
Stainless steel offers high strength and high resistance to chemicals, even
at high ambient temperatures. T&B stainless steel channel tray is roll-formed
from AISI Type 316 stainless steel, as standard, with Type 304 stainless steel
available to special order.
Channel tray bottom types
Solid channel tray is offered in all widths (1 1/2”, 3”, 4”, 6”), and includes
connector holes at each end for attachment of fittings or other straight
sections via a splice plate.
Solid tray
3”, 4” and 6” ventilated channel tray includes burr free oblong punched
holes for easy access. Ty-Rap® slots are provided between each opening
for securing and maintaining air space between cables. Ty-Rap® slots are
provided at intervals in 1 1/2” ventilated tray.
Note: fittings supplied in solid bottom type only.

should be taken when handling channel tray and protective gloves should be worn to avoid risk of injury.

Channel tray
Fittings
Fittings enable a channel tray system to change direction or
elevation in order to meet building design and cable run constraints.
The channel tray range of fittings includes:
●
Horizontal bends
●
Vertical inside bends
●
Vertical outside bends
●
Horizontal tees
●
Horizontal crosses
The most important decision to be made in fitting design concerns radius.
Selection of the most appropriate radius requires a compromise with the
considerations being available space, minimum bending radius of cables,
ease of cable pulling, and cost.
Whether horizontal or vertical application, a standard radius of either
12” or 24” is available, with options for zero (non-radius), or custom sizes
greater than 24” to special order.
The typical radius specified in channel tray installations is 24”.

Product selection - fittings
Fitting part numbers are based on a range of selection criteria, dependent
on the type of fitting and the role undertaken in the channel tray system.
For product ordering, specifiers should choose the appropriate component
part from the lists shown in the tables below and create a specific part
number following the example shown.
Horizontal and vertical bends are available with standard angles of 30°,
45°, 60° and 90°. When a standard angle is not suitable, field fittings or
adjustable splice plates can be used. It may be necessary to add supports
to the tray at these points (our range of accessories and Superstrut® is
shown on pages 10 to 14).
Refer to NEMA VE-2 Installation Guidelines for suggested support locations
for fittings.

Channel tray
Covers
Tray covers are available for all channel tray widths and material
types, in solid style for both straight sections and fittings.
Covers provide mechanical protection to cable runs and should be
installed where falling objects may damage cables, or where vertical
tray run is accessible by pedestrian or vehicular traffic.
Solid flanged cover
Solid covers provide maximum mechanical protection for cables which have
limited heat build up, and include a 1/2” flange for secure positioning above
the channel tray.
Solid cover for fittings
Covers for fittings (bends, tees and crosses) are available in solid cover type
only and include a 1/2” flange for secure positioning above the channel tray.
Note: cover mounting hardware must be ordered separately for all
cover types.
Product selection - covers
Cover part numbers are based on a range of selection criteria, dependent on the type of cover required, and the need
