Technical specification
Spring channel nut in 
Description
Use
- Spring channel nut for indoor or outdoor installations.
- For direct fixing or through supports of tray systems and ladder trays systems.
Design
- Spring channel nut ready-to-install.
- The plastic spring allows the same rail nut to be used regardless of the height of the rail.
- Resistant to corrosion. (See characteristics in the declaration acc. to BS EN 61537/IEC 61537 ).
- CE marking acc. BS EN 61537 compliance.
- Immediate availability from our logistics center thanks to a complete stock of all the parts.
Advantages
- Safe, easy and quick mounting.
- Avalible in versions -A4 yellow capsule and -C6 grey capsule. The insulating capsule is made in U48X.
- Spring channel nut compatible with insulating strut channel 60 in U48X, rooftop support 60 in U48X and metallic struts acc. to BS 6946 standard.
- Spring channel nut compatible with cable ladder 67 rungs.
Mounting instructions
- To fulfil the characteristics defined herein, the installation must be carried out in accordance with the manufacturer`s assembly instructions provided in the main product packaging and also available on the website www.unex.net.
