Questions engineers ask

What is the difference between Basor BF2R and BFR wire mesh tray?

BF2R ships with the splices already on the tray. Two sections push together with no bolts and no tools. BFR is the bolt-splice version and is the series Basor offers in hot dip galvanized, 304 stainless and 316 stainless.

How do I size a wire mesh cable tray?

Add up the cross section of every cable in the run and pick a tray whose useful area holds that total at 50 percent fill or less (NEC 392.22). Each product page on this site lists the useful area in square inches and the Category 6 cable fill figure.

What finishes does Basor offer?

Electrozinc (EZ), EZ1000 high corrosion coating, black and white powder coat, hot dip galvanized, 304 stainless and 316 stainless. Basor rates EZ at corrosion class 3 and EZ1000 at class 8+ under EN IEC 61537.

Can you cross a Cablofil, Flextray, OnTrac or Wyr-Grid part number to Basor?

Yes. Send the part number with the width, depth and finish and we return the matching Basor reference with a quote.
