Dimensions of 45° elbows for horizontal cable trays

45° horizontal elbows for cable trays typically feature side rail widths of 1 1/8", 2", or 2 3/8" depending on NEMA class, with standard bend radii of 75 mm, 150 mm, or 300 mm.

Side Rail Widths by NEMA Class

  • Class 1 (NEMA 12B, 12C): 1 1/8" wide side rail flanges with 4-hole splice plates .
  • Class 2 (NEMA 20A, 20B, 20C): 2" wide side rail flanges with 4-hole splice plates .
  • Class 3 (NEMA >20C): 2 3/8" wide side rail flanges with 8-hole splice plates . These widths ensure proper support and secure connections for the corresponding cable tray systems.

Bend Radii

  • Standard diagonal corner radius: 75 mm .
  • Custom request radii: 150 mm or 300 mm for diagonal or curve corners . The radius affects the smoothness of cable transitions and the space required for installation, with larger radii providing gentler bends for larger cables or higher fill capacities.

Additional Design Features

  • Many elbows, such as the ITray aluminum I-beam design, include structural offsets in the sidewall for strong mid-span splices, reducing the number of supports needed and simplifying installation .
  • Zero tangent fittings are available to minimize wasted space in tightly packed areas, allowing more tray runs and better heat distribution .

Summary

When selecting a 45° horizontal elbow for a cable tray system, consider:

  1. NEMA class compatibility to match side rail width and splice plate configuration.
  2. Bend radius to accommodate cable size and installation space.
  3. Material and design features for structural strength and ease of installation. These dimensions and features ensure a secure, efficient, and code-compliant cable tray installation.
