Fastener

Fasteners for cable trunking, cable tray, and metal trunking can vary depending on the specific application and the materials involved. Here are some common types of fasteners used for securing these components:

1. Screw and nut: This is a traditional method where screws are inserted through holes in the trunking or tray, and nuts are tightened onto the screws from the opposite side to secure them in place.
2. Self-tapping screws: These screws have a sharp tip that can create its own hole as it is driven into the material. They are commonly used for securing lightweight trunking or tray to walls or other surfaces.
3. Bolts and washers: Bolts with corresponding washers can be used for heavier-duty installations where extra strength and stability are required. They are often used in conjunction with nuts to secure the assembly tightly.
4. Clip or bracket systems: Some cable trunking and tray systems come with specialized clips or brackets that allow them to be snapped or slid into place without the need for separate fasteners. These systems can speed up installation and provide a cleaner appearance.
5. Adhesive fasteners: In certain situations, adhesive pads or tapes may be used to secure cable trunking or tray to surfaces where drilling holes is not feasible or desirable.
6. Cable ties or straps: For temporary or lightweight installations, cable ties or straps can be used to bundle cables together and attach them to trunking or tray.
