What types of mounting brackets are there?
In practice, the term mounting brackets covers a very wide range of products, differing in shape, size and application. Their use is necessary to ensure that the cable routes are fully safe and stable.
Depending on the installation variant and the needs of a given project, various variants of brackets are used, including: brackets:
- hollow, with special holes or grooves that facilitate cable routing, can be mounted to walls, ceilings or other load-bearing elements of the structure;
- clamps, which are equipped with special clamps or clamps that keep the cables stably in place, their advantage is the ability to be adjusted, which allows you to adjust the clamp to the size of the cables;
- suspended, thanks to which the cable installation can be suspended from the ceiling, on supporting structures, such as beams or special rails;
- attached with a tape, equipped with a strong and durable tape and clamps, allow for solid attachment to various surfaces, including concrete, wood, metal, a big advantage is that drilled holes are not required for their attachment;
- for cable pipes, is a special type of brackets dedicated to mounting cable pipes.
Individual brackets work in specific situations, so the selection of the appropriate variant should take into account the individual features of the selected project.
The use of mounting brackets in cable route systems
Cable routes are made in accordance with appropriately prepared designs. Their solid and durable construction requires the use of a number of construction elements, such as: just the brackets. They play an extremely important role in cable route systems, as they allow cables to be routed along walls, ceilings or other structural elements, thanks to which the whole thing gains a functional and practical dimension. Thanks to well-made routes, cables gain appropriate protection, which reduces the risk of damage.
The second important factor in favor of using brackets is that they allow you to easily maintain the appropriate spacing between individual cables. This is a way to avoid interference problems.
How long can the mounting bracket last?
Each mounting bracket has an appropriate technical specification, in which the manufacturer provides detailed information on the application and possible maximum load. How long a bracket can withstand depends primarily on the materials it is made of, the type of installation, etc.
When choosing supports for cable routes, it is necessary to check the maximum load, because only the proper selection of components ensures solid installation.
