TrenchLok™ cable protection system

The standard TrenchLok™ cable trench cover is designed for light vehicles and pedestrian traffic. Alternatively, TrenchLok™ HD provides a higher level of protection suited to heavier vehicles travelling over the belt.

The channel is an U-shaped profile made of corrosion-resistant steel.  It is cast in the quay to form the cable trench where power cables are laid down while unwinding from cable reels. In comparison to the concrete channels, which can be subject to erosion with the constant use and therefore resulting friction of the cables movement in and out, the durable smooth surface of the lateral walls and base of the channel offers far superior protection for the crane cables. We are able to design customized solutions for all your needs.

To minimize the amount of cable needed for a particular crane travelling distance, the cable is usually terminated and electrically connected at the center point of the crane journey. It is at this center point where a “cable anchor” would be placed inside a formed concrete vault. Depending on the characteristics of the cable, our teams can design and supply customized solutions for all your needs. They are standard supplied in stainless steel.
