Description
Tate grid is a pre-engineered and factory produced aluminium structural ceiling grid with continuously threaded slot (M10-1.5).
The grid consists of main runners with notches for precise location and connection of coped structural tees using screw connectors. The system is capable of supporting power modules, light fixtures, cable trays, partitions and other accessories.
Load performance based on ceiling support spacing at 1200 mm centre to centre:
- Max safe working point load: 1.7 kN.
- Max safe working uniform load: 2.4 kN/m2.
Connectors:
- High strength cast aluminium construction.
- Corrosion resistant aluminium casting.
- Ribs on connector to engage with grid and prevent racking.
- Attaches to grid members with 1⁄4”-20 screws.
- M10-1.5 Turnbuckles with starter rod threads into connectors on a 1200 x 1200 mm spacing.
- Perimeter connectors cut on site to suit conditions.
Features and benefits:
- High strength and performance with the ability to suspend a uniform load of 2.4 kN/m2.
- Continuously threaded M10 bottom slot to allow multiple containment configurations.
- Fast and easy to install.
- Available with 600 x 600 mm or 600 x 1200 mm grid spacing.
- CE marked to EN 1090-1:2009 + A1:2011 and EN 1090-2:2018.
