Cable tray 60-degree sloping side

Cable trays with 60 mm side heights can be installed at slopes, including 60-degree angles, using appropriate cantilever brackets and vertical bend components.

Design and Compatibility

Cable trays with a rail height of 60 mm are available in widths from 100 to 300 mm and can be used for ceiling, wall, or inclined installations . For sloping or vertical changes, vertical bends (RVB 60) allow flexible routing while maintaining structural integrity . These bends are bolted to the tray bottom and sides and are compatible with standard 60 mm high trays.

Mounting and Support

For sloped installations, cable trays can be mounted using KTAS cantilever brackets with KLAF 6 fastenings to secure the tray at the desired angle . Ceiling or wall mounting can be achieved with TKS, KTA, or KTAG cantilever brackets, optionally supported by M10 threaded rods or ceiling brackets (DBG 12) for additional stability . All joints and bends must be supported within 150 mm to ensure proper load distribution.

Material and Corrosion Protection

Cable trays and bends are available in various materials and surface finishes to meet corrosion requirements for different environments . Common materials include steel, stainless steel, and pre-galvanized or hot-dip galvanized steel, which provide protection against atmospheric corrosion and mechanical wear .

Installation Considerations

• Ensure that the slope does not exceed the maximum permissible load for the tray and brackets.
• Use mushroom head bolts (FLM 6X12/FLM 6X16 F) to fasten trays to cantilever brackets .
• For wall-mounted sloped trays, KTAF 200 or KTAF 300 brackets can be used without additional threaded rods .
• Verify compliance with fire safety standards and DIN 4102 Part 12 specifications for circuit integrity .

Summary

A 60-degree sloping cable tray can be effectively implemented using 60 mm high trays, vertical bends, and cantilever or threaded rod supports. Proper selection of brackets, fasteners, and corrosion-resistant materials ensures safe, compliant, and durable installations in industrial, commercial, or residential projects .
