FAQs
Start by identifying the radius section of your Flextray run and align the FTA4RS with the tray bend. Attach using the manufacturer’s recommended fasteners from the Flextray installation guide, ensuring the shield sits flush to the tray surface. Verify fitment and clearance before routing cables and testing for compliant spacing.
The FTA4RS is designed for Eaton B-Line Flextray systems and fits standard radius sections within the Flextray wire basket catalog. With its 11 in length, 4 in width, and 4.3 in height, it complements existing trays and supports consistent cable routing, reducing rework when retrofitting in established layouts. This reduces install time and guards against misalignment.
The radius shield delivers durable protection for cables at bends, minimizing abrasion and protecting insulation in demanding environments. It contributes to safer, cleaner routing, easier inspections, and longer tray life. Operators benefit from fewer maintenance cycles and more reliable system performance in data centers, manufacturing floors, and control-room installations across critical infrastructure.
Yes. The FTA4RS carries UL Classified certification and CSA compliance, reflecting adherence to recognized North American safety standards. This helps manufacturers meet regulatory requirements, simplifies supplier qualification, and provides assurance during audits. When used with the Eaton Flextray catalog and installation guides, installation remains consistent with documented safety practices for critical industrial projects.
Investing in the FTA4RS radius shield yields tangible returns through reduced downtime, fewer cable damage events at bends, and lower field labor over time. Its durable steel construction and certified safety features support longer service intervals, easier inspections, and faster upgrades for growing facilities, translating into predictable operating costs and improved uptime.
