A new ‘ClickFit’ bracket design has been introduced to make ARCOSYSTEM® cable troughing even easier to install along railway lines — especially when working in tight spaces.
If you need your rail cabling securely contained but are faced with restricted trackside access or limited attachment options along the route, then the latest addition to our ARCOSYSTEM® range of specialist bracketry could be just what’s required to complete your job smoothly and safely.
The innovative ClickFit brackets are designed with a powerful spring effect, allowing the troughing cells to be simply clicked into place with a satisfying snap.
These new brackets were recently used for a job that required cable troughing to be fitted to a rock face slanted at an awkward angle of approximately 45˚. The ClickFit design ensured the troughing could be clicked into the brackets — which were fixed to rock bolts clamped into the rock face itself — with ease, as opposed to the on-site operatives struggling to slide the troughs into the shoes of the brackets. This resulted in a much quicker, easier, and safer install, especially with the operatives working on slippy, sloping ground.
