Starduct cable tray & ladder — range introduction

From the punching, roll-forming and bending line at the Dan Phuong factory to the products: perforated and solid trays, cable ladder and raceway; rib stiffening, coupler-free joints, 37 VIBM test reports and the online selection tools. The 30–40 % and 15–20 s / 90 s figures are Starduct internal data. English subtitles over the Vietnamese narration until the English voice-over is recorded.

CABLE TRAY · CABLE LADDER · RACEWAY

Independent tests for trays, ladders, fittings and supports

Tested to TCVN 10688:2015 (IEC 61537:2006) at the Vietnam Institute for Building Materials (VIBM); declared loads are checked against measured loads.

Faster to install, lighter, with measured data for your submittal

WHY STARDUCT

Faster to install, lighter, with measured data for your submittal

01No loose couplersTrays hook together with integral tabs, ladders with male–female ends: fewer loose parts, faster fitting, earthing through the joint.
0230–40 %lighter than flat-sheet traysStarduct internal dataRib-stiffened: lighter, better materialsRibbed sides and base, rolled-back edges: lighter than flat sheet, so highly corrosion-resistant materials cost about the same as ordinary hot-dip galvanised.
03Measured by an independent laboratoryLoad, deflection, impact, continuity, fire and salt spray — every figure with its VIBM report number.

Cable tray — construction

CABLE TRAY

Cable tray — construction

01Integral hook-in tabsHook tabs formed at both ends; trays join without separate couplers.
02Perforated baseOval slots in the base ventilate the cables and take cable ties.
03Stiffening ribsRibs stamped along the sides and base stiffen the section.
04M8 square-neck boltsSquare holes stop the bolt turning while tightening.
05Return-flange edgesFolded side edges keep sharp edges away from cable sheaths.

Cable ladder — construction

CABLE LADDER

Cable ladder — construction

01Clinched rungsRungs are joined to the side rails by punch pressing, not welding — no weld corrosion.
02Integrated male–female endsEach section has one male and one female end; fit them together and tighten M8 bolts.
03Electrical continuityBolts with copper washers bond adjacent sections.
04Open structureWide gaps between rungs let cables cool naturally — suited to long, heavy runs.

MATERIALS

Four material and finish options

GI — galvanised Z18Standard for dry indoor environments.
Z — ZAM K27Zinc–aluminium–magnesium coated steel, better corrosion resistance than plain galvanising: basements, humid areas.
S — stainless 304Chemical, hospital and laboratory environments.
P — RAL powder coatPowder coating in RAL colours over coated steel.
