Baks cable tray cover PKR100/2 100x2000 mm 0.5 mm steel

Baks PKR100/2 is a steel cover for cable trays with a nominal profile of 100 x 2000 mm and a material thickness of 0.5 mm. It is designed to sit atop compatible 100 mm-width tray systems to protect installed cables from dust, debris and incidental mechanical contact. The cover is intended for use in electrical installations across industrial, commercial and utility environments where a slim, rigid lid is required to shield cabling runs.

Advantages

The cover is made from steel with a 0.5 mm thickness that provides a balance between low weight and structural rigidity. Its dimensions match standard 100 mm tray profiles, allowing straightforward fitting to existing compatible trays. The solid lid form reduces ingress of dust and small particles while offering a compact protective layer that does not substantially increase tray height.

Suitable for

• Covering cable trays with a 100 mm internal width
• Electrical cable protection in industrial and commercial facilities
• Environments where dust protection and basic mechanical shielding are required
• Retrofit projects using standard 100 mm tray systems

When it may not be suitable

This steel cover is not intended for applications requiring heavy mechanical protection, impact resistance against large objects, or protection against liquids or corrosive chemicals unless additional sealing or treatment is applied. It also may not be ideal where a fully ventilated cover or thermal management openings are required for heat dissipation.

Key specifications

• Profile dimensions: 100 x 2000 mm (width x length)
• Material: steel
• Material thickness: 0.5 mm
• Form: solid cover for cable tray
• Compatibility: designed for tray systems with 100 mm nominal width

How to use

Place the cover onto the compatible cable tray running parallel to the tray length so that its edges engage with the tray side flanges. Ensure the tray and cover seating surfaces are clean and free of debris before fitting. For longer runs, align adjacent covers so their ends meet evenly; secure according to the installation practice of the tray system — for example with appropriate clips, fasteners or spot welds if required by the installation specification. Verify that the cover does not impede cable routing or required access for maintenance.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the tray nominal width is 100 mm to ensure fit
• Assess whether 0.5 mm steel thickness provides sufficient mechanical protection for the application
• Consider whether any surface treatment or additional sealing is needed for corrosive or wet environments
• Check compatibility with existing tray fastening or joining methods

Usage recommendations

Use this cover where dust exclusion and light mechanical protection are required. For installations exposed to moisture, chemicals or heavy impact, select covers with thicker material, corrosion-resistant coatings or purpose-designed sealed lids. Follow local electrical installation standards when fitting and securing covers to ensure safe cable routing and access.
