  • Installation of seismic bracing and hangers for cable trays

    Installation of seismic bracing and hangers for cable trays

    Connect cables directly to 3/8" threaded rod in trapeze installations for seismic bracing. Predrilled tabs allow attachment directly to concrete deck. Spacing must be at least every 30'. Eaton's TOLCO seismic bracing solutions help protect people and non-structural components during an earthquake. Braces are typi-cally installed. The B-Line series seismic bracing cable kits, featuring the patented KwikWireTM tool-less clamp, are up to 50% faster to install over traditional cable bracing methods. Tested by an independent lab and stamped by a Professional Engineer, the seismic cable kits are designed to brace non-structural. We offer a pre-engineered, time-saving solution which braces and secures non-structural equipment within a building to minimize damage from earthquakes or seismic events. We design mechanical, electrical.
