Cable Tray Wire
Cable tray wire plays a critical role in modern cable management systems used throughout industrial, commercial, and manufacturing environments. RSP Supply offers a wide selection of tray rated cable designed for use in cable tray systems, with configurations ranging from 2 to 37 conductors in 16 and 18 AWG sizes. These cables support organized routing of power, control, and communication wiring while maintaining accessibility for inspection, modification, or maintenance.
In facilities such as manufacturing plants, processing centers, and infrastructure installations, cable tray systems are commonly used to support large volumes of wiring across extended distances. Tray rated wire allows multiple cable types to be grouped within a confined space while remaining flexible and serviceable as system requirements evolve.
Type TC (Tray Cable) is specifically engineered for use in tray systems and similar applications. These cables are constructed with insulation and jacketing materials suitable for both wet and dry locations, with options available for light- to heavy-duty use. Many Type TC cables are rated for installation in free air, raceways, or direct burial. For industrial environments, oil-resistant and corrosion-resistant constructions help protect against harsh operating conditions and contribute to long-term system performance.
