Anti Corrosion Hot-Dip Galvanized Cable Tray System: A reliable shield for industrial cable management


In modern industrial and infrastructure construction, the safety, stability and maintainability of cable systems are increasingly valued. Especially in high humidity and highly corrosive environments, such as coastal areas, chemical plants, sewage treatment plants and underground pipe gallery systems, how to effectively protect cables from external environmental erosion has become a key issue in design and construction. Anti Corrosion Hot-Dip Galvanized Cable Tray System was born in this context and has gradually become the mainstream choice with its excellent corrosion resistance, strength and economy.

Hot-Dip Galvanizing is an anti-corrosion treatment process in which steel is immersed in molten zinc at about 450°C to form a metallic zinc coating. This process not only forms a dense zinc layer on the steel surface, but also generates a Fe-Zn alloy compound layer at the interface, effectively preventing the spread of rust.

Unlike cold plating (electrogalvanizing), the thickness of hot-dip galvanizing layer can usually reach more than 65μm (customizable to 120μm according to standards and use environment), with a protection period of more than 30 years, especially suitable for outdoor and high-corrosion areas. For cable trays, this process means dual protection of structural stability and cable safety.

Cable trays are structural equipment used to support and protect cables. They are usually made of metal materials and are suitable for various types of wiring systems such as power, telecommunications, and data transmission. According to the structure and use, they can be divided into trough type, tray type, ladder type, grid type and other types, which are widely used in factories, buildings, tunnels, subways and data centers.

Traditional bridges are prone to rust in humid or chemically corrosive environments, resulting in reduced structural strength, cable support failure, and even safety accidents. Anti-corrosion hot-dip galvanizing treatment is an effective way to solve this hidden danger.

Advantages of anti-corrosion hot-dip galvanized bridge system
Extremely high anti-corrosion ability
The molten zinc layer has excellent oxidation resistance and acid and alkali resistance. Even in salt spray, high humidity or corrosive gas environment, it can form a "self-healing" protective film, which significantly extends the service life of the bridge.

Superior mechanical strength
Hot-dip galvanizing will not change the mechanical properties of the steel itself, and the zinc layer is firmly attached and not easy to peel off. It can withstand large mechanical loads and meet the cable laying requirements in complex industrial scenarios.

Low maintenance cost
One hot-dip galvanizing, lifelong protection. Compared with stainless steel or spray-coated bridges, hot-dip galvanized bridges do not require frequent maintenance, which reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO) during the life cycle.

Convenient construction
Standardized design, diversified accessories and installation methods significantly improve the construction efficiency of the bridge system; and the surface treatment of hot-dip galvanized bridges does not require secondary processing and can be directly installed, saving construction cycles.

Comply with multiple international standards
The hot-dip galvanized cable tray system generally complies with relevant standards such as ISO 1461, ASTM A123, GB/T 13912, etc., ensuring the universality and interchangeability of the product worldwide.

With the development of green building concepts and intelligent power systems, cable trays are also evolving towards modularization, intelligence, and greening. Some manufacturers have begun to launch intelligent tray systems with temperature monitoring and current detection functions to further ensure the stable operation of the system.
