Protect your cables today with our wide selection of cable protectors, which are available in a range of channel sizes, and materials.

Untrained eyes may overlook Heavy Duty Cable Covers, but they are extremely important for protecting both pedestrians and cables at the same time. These HD cord covers are required to be highly durable and long-lasting. Therefore, heavy-duty cable covers are primarily made from high-density polyurethane or rubber. For Cable protectors to be considered heavy-duty, they must be rated to withstand more than 10,000 Lbs of weight per axle. Therefore, cable protectors are not only designed to prevent pedestrians from tripping hazards, but they also prevent heavy cars, trucks, and other vehicles from damaging wires.

When deciding which cable protector is best suited for your job or application, it is imperative that you know the exact size and quantity of wires or hoses you plan to protect/conceal. By taking these measurements before purchasing your cable protector, you can use both these measurements to accurately choose the size of the channels and the number of channels you need.

 

Once you have correctly determined what size of cable protector you need, you should begin to think about who or what will be walking, driving, or rolling over the cable covers. The visibility of pedestrians crossing over is of utmost importance when there are high pedestrian numbers. For increased visibility, it would be well thought out to buy cable protectors that have bright safety-yellow or orange lids to grab the attention of those walking over or around the cable protectors. For example, if heavy cars, trucks, or forklifts will be driven over the cable protector, you should invest in heavy-duty cable protectors rated from 18 to 40,000 lbs per axle in order to ensure that your investment won't be damaged under repeated driving. Lastly, ADA and low-profile cable protectors are specifically designed for applications where those individuals that are in wheelchairs can easily cross over the cable covers.

If you already own a specific brand of cable protectors, you are somewhat limited in the types of cable covers you can use. Cable protectors all have male connectors and female reception ports. In other words, when you buy a cable protector that will match existing units, make sure your connectors match.

When required to transport multiple cable protectors at once, it may be better to purchase a cable protector transport cart that can hold up to 10 cable ramps at one time. If you do not want to invest in a secure transport cart, you can always use the built-in grips on the underside of all standard cable protectors to make carrying the cable cover much easier.
