Swifts® cable ladder supports
hanger rod brackets
150125100
Hanger rod brackets are an effective way of supporting any width of
cable ladder off studding without the need for special trapeze hangers
or cut lengths of channel
They are particularly useful when space to the sides of a ladder run is
restricted or where maximum headroom is required below a ladder run
Hanger rod brackets are available for all ladder ranges and supplied in
pairs with bracket to ladder fasteners

When hanger rod brackets are fitted
to ladder, covers cannot be used
Multiple level installation
■ Assembly
Brackets can be used with either M10 or M12 threaded rod
Fixing bracket to ladder
Brackets are fixed directly to the outside of the ladder siderail as shown
The slots in the side rail and the bracket provide sufficient movement to
align the bracket with the threaded rod
Fixing bracket to threaded rod
Four nuts and washers are used to fix each bracket to the threaded rod
This ensures the stability of the support and also optimises the safe
working load

Weights
All weights given are in kilograms (kg) and are for a pair of
brackets in hot dip galvanised G finish
To obtain the appropriate component weight in other
finishes, multiply the given weight by the following factors :
Deep galvanised (D) x 1·07
Stainless steel (S) x 0·94
Powder coated (E) x 0·97

■ Safe working loads
The safe working load of all brackets is 400kg per pair of brackets
When several levels of ladder are mounted on the same threaded rods
in a multiple level installation, it is important to ensure that the total load
on any pair of rods does not exceed the safe working load of the rods
or their attachment points
Fastener finishes
For ladders with G, D and E finishes, fasteners are high tensile Grade
8.8 hot dip galvanised
For ladders with S finish, fasteners are corrosion resistant stainless
Grade A470
For ladders with E finish, the fasteners are Grade 8.8 hot dip galvanised
