Cable ramps

Cable ramps are essential to provide protection for both pedestrians and expensive cables. These gangways must be highly durable and long-lasting. Therefore, they are mostly made of high-density polyurethane or rubber. In order for cable protectors to be considered heavy duty, they must be able to withstand a load of more than 10,000 pounds per axle. Thus, cable treads are not only designed to keep pedestrians safe from tripping hazards, but also to prevent heavy cars, trucks and other vehicles from damaging wires under their weight.

Types of cable ramps

Cable ramps come in two formats: with or without opening covers. The advantage of using lidless ramps is ease of installation, especially for existing cables when lifting and moving them is not feasible. In addition, lidless ramps often cost less because of their lighter construction, but that also means they can't support much weight. Cable protectors with covers are the most popular type of cable ramps. As the name implies, the top of the gangway can open or close when something needs to be removed or added inside. Cable ramps with covers are also designed for heavy loads.

Materials

Rubber vs. polyurethane is a classic rivalry of cable treads. A few things to consider when choosing one or the other: first, the cost of rubber cable protectors is usually much lower without sacrificing quality. However, rubber cable ramps have significant weight, making them difficult to transport by hand. Instead, polyurethane cable protectors are lightweight and generally have a higher load capacity. 

Choosing the right cable ladder

When choosing a cable ladder, you need to know the exact size and number of wires or hoses you plan to protect/cover. Taking these measurements before purchasing a cable ladder will allow you to accurately select the appropriate channel size in the cable protector and the required number of channels. Once you have properly determined what size gangway you need, you should think about who or what will be walking, riding or rolling over these gangways. Where a large number of pedestrians will be passing through the gangway, visibility tends to be the more important issue. To increase visibility, it is better to purchase cable safety gangways with brightly colored safety yellow or orange covers to attract attention. In addition, if heavy vehicles, trucks or forklifts will be traveling down the gangway, it is wise to invest in heavy-duty cable gangways that are rated for 18,000 to 40,000 pounds per axle.
