Welcome to S. V. METAL LLC
Cable tray (or cable ladder) system is the assembly of cable supports consisting of cable tray (or
cable ladder) & other system components.
The system components are designed to withstand the stresses likely to occur during
recommended transport & storage.

Zinc Coatings
Zinc is used typically in order to protect the steel. Zinc coatings provide protective and durable
barrier for the steel, and most importantly it acts as a sacrificial protection for any exposed
areas
of steel, galvanizing is the method of coating the steel with zinc.
~ Pre-Galvanized Zinc ~
This finish is an economical solution in the normally dry indoor application where the atmosphere
is less corrosive.In this finish zinc coating is applied on both sides of the steel sheet during
manufacturing itself, resulting in bright and smooth surface finish. The base metal edges (cut
edges) exposing in further manufacturing operations is not a hindrance to the usage in the indoor
dry atmosphere application - even though the exposed area may have a slight discoloration which
can be mistaken as rust - because of the self-repairing cathodic protective effect. Not suitable for
any highly corrosive and high humidity atmospheric conditions.
~ Hot Dip Galvanized After Fabrication ~
This finish is having a considerably longer protection under normal industrial and commercial
environments. Hot dip galvanizing is a process where completely manufactured or roll formed
steel is chemically cleaned of all contaminants and then dipped in molten zinc. This will allow a
coating consists of iron/zinc alloys which are usually over coated with a layer of almost pure zinc.
The thickness of zinc coating depends on the thickness of the steel. Local coating thickness
varies from 35μ-55μ depending on thickness. Please note that this is purely a mechanical
operation focusing on the degree of protection rather than the aesthetic appearance. More
thickness of zinc can be achieved by this method compared to any other process, leaving a light
film of zinc on the small holes on the surface of the product

Epoxy Coated Cable Tray
The process is based on applying the coating electrostatically as spray which ensures that the surface is fully and evenly covered, the process is completed by hardening the product into an oven. Two of the most advantageous coatings are polyester & epoxy powder coating; they are applied directly on the prime steel, or even over the galvanized steel to enhance the zinc coating effectiveness.
