Unistrut systems offer versatile solutions for structural support in commercial applications. Components include cantilever arms, cable trays, channel struts, vertical supports and brackets. They integrate seamlessly to create customisable frameworks and Unistrut's modular design allows for quick assembly.
How Does a Cable Management System Compare to a Unistrut Cable Tray?
Unistrut cable trays offer several benefits over traditional cable management systems. They allow excellent flexibility for easy installation and reconfiguration. The open design of Unistrut trays ensures proper ventilation, reducing heat buildup in cables. This leads to improved performance of electrical and data lines. Unistrut cable trays are also highly durable and resistant to corrosion.
Does Unistrut Manufacture Channel Struts in Different Sizes?
Yes, steel U-channel struts are available in a range of sizes. Standard steel channel sizes include 41x41mm, 41x21mm and 41x82mm cross-sections. Length options typically span from 3 metres to 6 metres. This flexibility allows for precise fitment in diverse applications. Material thickness also varies, usually between 2.5mm and 4mm, affecting load capacity and overall strength.
How Much Does the Weight of a Unistrut Cantilever Arm Assembly Affect its Load Capacity?
The weight of a Unistrut cantilever arm assembly impacts its load capacity. Heavier assemblies limit the available capacity for additional loads. If a cantilever arm has a 90 kg capacity and the assembly weighs 9 kg, only 81 kg remains.
It's important to account for the weight of all components, including the arm and galvanised angle brackets. Always subtract the assembly weight from the total capacity to determine the available load capacity.
