Chalfant Manufacturing, a member of the OBO Betermann Group, is a leading provider of high-quality cable tray and cable management systems. Our industry-leading advancements, paired with over 80 years of domestic production experience, sets our products apart.

We supply premium cable trays that are proudly manufactured in the USA in compliance with the Build America Buy America Act, so they qualify for federally funded infrastructure projects.

Made in the USA

Chalfant Manufacturing designs and stocks a full range of cable tray systems for electrical contractors and engineers across North America. Our cable trays and cable management systems support and route power, low voltage, and data cabling in manufacturing plants, data centers, warehouses, power facilities, and other demanding industrial environments.

Featured Industrial Cable Tray Product Lines

Aluminum Ladder Tray

Our aluminum ladder tray revolutionized wire and cable management in manufacturing plants. It remains the industry standard for high-density power and control cable routing across commercial and industrial facilities.

All of our aluminum cable tray systems meet or exceed NEMA VE-1 standards and NEC Article 392 requirements. They are classified by Underwriters Laboratories (UL) as equipment grounding conductors.

Chalfant aluminum ladder cable tray
  • Load and span performance – These trays support weight capacities from 50 to 100 pounds per linear foot and spans of up to 40 feet, which makes them well-suited for long runs and heavy power cabling. Steel and 304 and 316 stainless-steel options are available where added strength or corrosion resistance is required.
  • Material and finish – Constructed from high-strength 6063-T6 aluminum extrusions, these aluminum cable trays deliver superior structural load-bearing capacity while remaining lightweight. They have a smooth finish and are resistant to atmospheric corrosion.
  • Installation and application – Our industrial cable trays are ideal for seacoast, offshore, and most petrochemical and pulp mill applications.

Wire Mesh Cable Trays

The GR-Magic® wire mesh tray system is designed for low voltage and data cabling. Its open construction promotes airflow and gives contractors flexible, accessible routing paths that adapt easily as cabling needs change.

As our flagship cable tray system, GR-Magic® reflects our commitment to innovation. Its patented snap-together connection reduces installation time by 60% to 70%. You do not need screws, plates, or tools to configure this tray.

  • Load and span performance – GR-Magic® proves its stability in DIN 4102 Part 12 fire testing by carrying a 10 lb/ft cable load on supports spaced 4.9 ft apart. For load ratings at your project's support spacing, contact your Chalfant rep.
  • Material and finish – GR-Magic® is a steel cable tray available in three steel finishes:
    • Electro-galvanized steel for indoor commercial and data center spaces
    • Hot-dip galvanized steel for outdoor or high-moisture environments
    • 304/316 stainless steel for sanitary food processing plants
  • Installation and application – Our patented, tool-free connection system allows straight lengths to be snapped together in seconds. It mounts almost anywhere, including directly to walls and ceilings.

BKRS Walkable Tray

The BKRS walkable tray is a heavy-duty steel cable tray rated to be walked on, built for power plants, tunnels, and heavy industrial routing where load capacity and access are both priorities.

  • Load and span performance – It has been tested per IEC 61537 and EN 50085-2-2 standards to guarantee a minimum footfall load capacity of 350 kg (770 lb) when adhering to a maximum compartment width of 220 mm between barrier strips.
  • Material and finish – The BKRS is built with a continuous 2 mm heavy-duty steel thickness across the tray, cover, and internal barrier strips. It features a specialized chequer plate cover certified to Anti-Slip Class R11 and Displacement Space Class V10 to maximize traction and safety.
  • Installation and application – The integrated continuous Z-shaped barrier strips provide physical separation and electromagnetic compatibility compliant with DIN EN 50174. This shields sensitive data lines from high-voltage power lines, making this cable management system perfect for plants with high-traffic robotics, automotive assembly lines, or packaging halls. It can be mounted directly on the floor, or installed on Z-supports, support profiles, and stand-off brackets alongside machinery.

Fittings and Accessories

Every Chalfant cable tray system is backed by a complete line of fittings, bends, covers, and supports, so contractors can build a continuous, code-compliant cable management pathway throughout the installation.

  • Directional fittings – Bends, horizontal tees, 4-way crosses, and offset reducers
  • Protective covers – Solid, louvered, peaked, rain-peaked, and walkable chequer plate covers with wind resistant clamps
  • Splices and hardware – Expansion and adjustable splice plates, continuous Z-shaped barrier strips, ladder drop-outs, trapeze supports, and UL classified bonding jumpers
