Cable Hangers & Support
Pegasus is a modular cable hanger system that is stronger, lighter and, because it is has been designed to be made to order, incredibly flexible in comparison to traditional J-type galvanised steel cable hanger systems.
Pegasus from Ellis Patents comprises a non-corrosive marine grade, extruded aluminium spine that supports any number and combination of plastic cable hangers that are manufactured from a high strength nylon especially formulated to meet the requirements of the London Underground 1-085 specification.
Pegasus Benefits for Hanging CablesÂ
– Corrosion free nature as a result of there being no bimetallic contact and the aluminium spine being fully enclosed to protect the hanger system against the corrosive effects of brake dust.
– Curved saddle shape on all cable hangers that prevents cable damage caused by sharp edge contact with the outer sheath or jacket of the supported cables.
– Modular design that allows assembly with any number of hangers in any combination, giving designers the ability to produce the cable layout they want.
Manufactured by Ellis Patents, the global market-leader in the manufacture of cable cleats for the management and support of LV MV HV cables.
February Rail Project | Working with Ellis Patents we completed the specification and have now moved into manufacturing for our largest contract to date to supply TfL (London Underground) approved cable hangers across several depot modernisation projects.
Thorne & Derrick in consultation with the Asset Manager at Transport for London and their appointed Telecoms & Power contractor secured formal Authorisation & Approval for the Pegasus range of non-metallic cable support hangers.
The product will provide safe cable management of the cable route within the Bridges & Structures category – over 1000 hangers with proven lifecycle performance and utilising the standard J-type design for support of multiple cable runs including single, 3-way and 5-way configurations are now scheduled for delivery.
