Redi-Rail Rung Fastener

Rung Fastener Features:

  • ¼"-20 threads and a hex head sized to fit any standard 3/8" wrench or socket.
  • Washer head designed to allow the fastener to be torqued to high values (18 ft/lbs.) without stripping.
  • Made from heat-treated carbon steel and coated with chromium zinc to withstand up to 400 hours of salt spray.
  • Load Testing - Pullout from rung tested at over 3000 lbs.


.
Holes Throughout Redi-Rail System

The holes throughout the Redi-Rail system perform many different functions:

  • Act as holes for splice plate hardware.
  • If the tray must be field-cut, the tray may be cut through the center of a hole. This allows a splice plate to be attached to the next set of holes without field drilling.
  • Allow rungs to be repositioned.
  • The hanger rod bracket may be attached at any open bottom hole.
  • Allows easy attachment of accessory items requiring ¼" hardware (or smaller) such as conduit clamps, electrical boxes, wire basket runway, bonding jumpers, etc.


.
Hanger Rod Bracket – Ready for Installation

The hanger rod bracket speeds installation:

  • Allows the installer to attach brackets into any open hole at the bottom of the side rail.
  • Allows the brackets to be mounted offset from one another (not directly across as with a trapeze) for low-load applications. This allows the installer to work around existing obstructions.
  • May be used for hanging Redi-Rail tray at angles up to 45° since the single-bolt attachment allows the
    tray to swivel to the desired vertical
    position.
  • Tested successfully for tray loads
    over 115 lbs./ft.


.
Redi-Rail Splice Plates

Redi-Rail splice plates:

  • Allow the rigid connection of Redi-Rail straight sections and fittings.
  • Listed as a UL grounding conductor.
  • Tested successfully to meet or exceed tray load capacity (including splices will not degrade the load carrying capacity of the tray system).
  • Included with all Redi-Rail straight sections and fittings.


.
Redi-Rail Flex Connectors

Flex Connectors:

  • Allow adjustment in a Redi-Rail tray run both horizontally and vertically.
  • Horizontal adjustment range: 0° to 90°
  • Vertical adjustment range: -15° to 15°
  • Two options available:
  1. Pair of Flex Connectors
